 Hi,
 
 You start debugging with logs. However, you better start
 with
 upgrading your RT instance to 3.8.8 at least.

  Is it normal?
 
  We read something about FastCGI but we are not pretty

  Thanks again.

Hi Ruslan and thanks for the help.

We started the research process to upgrade RT 3.6.7 to 3.8.8

Thanks a lot!

 Upgrading 3.6.x to 3.8.x seems pretty
 straightforward to me.  The only
 tricky part could be upgrading the database.  If
 you're using MySQL, like
 most of us, then the UPGRADING.mysql file looks like it
 has enough
 information to help someone complete the task.

Hi Patrick and thanks for the reference.

I'm checking these files from rt-3.8.8.tar.gz file:

- UPGRADING.Mysql
- README
- UPGRADING

You say tricky part ... any hints about this process ?

Thanks again.

José.

Re: [rt-users] Upgrade 3.6 to 3.8.

2011-01-25 Thread Jose Diaz
Hi Chris and thanks a lot for your help.

We started the reading of UPGRADING file as you mentioned.

In this file, there is a section starting with:

UPGRADING FROM 3.6.X and earlier - Changes: ...

I think this is for us.

It says:

New schema for mysql 4.1 and greater, read more in UPGRADING.mysql.

So we will follow the steps explained in UPGRADING.mysql

Did you refer to this UPGRADING.mysql

By the other hand, you mentioned we tried to apply all the other fixes listed 
in UPGRADING, but that turned out to be unneccessary (and in fact damaging)

What fixes can we override?

Thankks again.

Take care.

José.

 Hi Jose,
 
 We just upgraded a couple of debian RT 3.6.6 to 3.8.8, and
 just followed the instructions in UPGRADING 
 
 This is from from a manually installed 3.6.6 on Debian
 Lenny to a manual latest 3.8.8 on Ubuntu 10.04 
 
 For the database, we just had to run this command to fix
 the database: 
   /opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --dba root
 --prompt-for-dba-password --action upgrade
 
 When prompted, enter the appropriate version and it just
 works tm.
 
 The libraries were more of a pain, but we just kept adding
 them whenever it complained. The database upgrade was
 simple. 
 
 As always, make sure you have a couple of backups :) I just
 had a couple of mysqldumps of that database. The first time
 we did it, we tried to apply all the other fixes listed in
 UPGRADING, but that turned out to be unneccessary (and in
 fact damaging) - all we actually needed to was run that one
 command.

[rt-users] ¿does request-tracker3.6 need restart apache2 often?

2011-01-20 Thread Jose Diaz
Hi and thanks in advance.

I just installed request-tracker3.6 in a debian lenny server.

It works perfect but today suddenly stopped to send email to users when a new 
ticket is created. Even, when we make a reply to requestor, the email is not 
sent.

In the history of the ticket when its created as new, the message which says 
that email outgoing was recorded is not present.

So after a very pain process, we restarted apache2:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

And RT started to send emails again.

Is it normal?

We read something about FastCGI but we are not pretty clear.

Do we have to restart the apache2 often ?

Can we setup anything to avoid apache2 restart ?

Thanks again.

José.
