[rt-users] RT 2 to RT 3.8 upgrade/conversion ?

2008-11-14 Thread Scott Golby
Has anyone been able to get the RT2toRT3 script working between RT 2.0.15 RT 3.8.1 ? Has there been substantial changes since 3.6 to the DB ? Wondering also if a 2 stage upgrade would work RT2--3.6--3.8 Thanks, Scott ___

[rt-users] Cosmetic Issues 3.8 - WYSIWYG, Round corners, FCKeditor not showing

Hi Everyone, Got couple of cosmetic issues I'm trying to solve with RT 3.8.1 1. Entering text in the WYSIWYG editor looks fine, I make the font big, change the color to Red - but when you view the ticket history it just shows as all the same size/font, h1 is gone, Red color is gone. (it is there

Hi David, The link that Jose posted is pretty similar to what I used to hook into our ActiveDirectory on Win2k3 server here. I did make these changes to get it to work however. The Doc I read 12 months ago said to filter on sAMAccountName, that didn't work for me. #Set($LdapFilter,

But... this leads me to ask a question that may be a really silly one: do we need a properly configured /etc/ldap.conf file to get the LDAP Auth to work in RT? I thought all the server and connection info put in the RT/Apache conf file would be enough. For my installation I didn't touch the

Does the book (RT Essentials) give's good insight on how to build scrips? The book is definitely worth getting in general I feel as it has told me info that I haven't picked up elsewhere. The scripts chapter isn't that detailed but gives you a good overview. The Wiki has quite a few

And so, yes, they DO type their answers into RT - and if some of them don't when they are afraid of losing a long email, they are angry against RT : RT supplies an input field, so well, it must supply the usual comfort functions supplied by MS-Outlook. This seems obvious to them. I don't

Hi Silvana, I've had odd results too with Custom Fields on ticket creation with custom Scrips. Two things I've found which have helped. 1) Turning on Batch mode in RT_SiteConfig.pm alleviates some of the problems of not knowing which scrip will trigger first. # Enable Batching of

Scroll to bottom. See where it says Rows per box ? Set it there. Do you mean Rows per Page ? I've got it set to Unlimited and it's displaying more than 10 that's for sure (I had 15 tickets the other day and it was fine), but it's a bit odd it says 20 highest tickets in the top of the box.

On the topic of custom fields it just says they are adding them in a later version of RT. I think the next edition should be twice as long with a lot more detail on the nitty gritty. Which version of the Book do you have ? I have the First edition and it has a couple of sections on Custom
