It could be your mail server, not RT, that's imposing the limit  
(actually, I think it's very likely).  Have you tried just sending a  
large attachment through your regular email client to the same person?

[rt-users] RT not generating email for CCs/AdminCCs

2007-12-06 Thread Matt Pounsett

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


We've just recently upgraded our RT install to version 3.6.5.  It  
looks like, under the new version, CC users and AdminCC users aren't  
receiving email about ticket updates.  Requesters *are* getting  
email, so I know RT is capable of sending.  According to my mail  
logs, there isn't even an attempt at sending messages to CC/AdminCC  
users.


I've gone through the new RT_Config.pm and don't see any  
configuration options that directly relate to this.  I'd considered  
that the $RedistributeAutoGeneratedMessages setting might affect  
this, but the AdminCCs and CCs being added are all manually created  
RT users with privileges.


Do we just have the wrong expectation for how RT should be behaving  
here?


I've done a bit of googling around for this, but didn't have much  
luck.  Does this sound familiar to anyone?


My (slightly sanitized) RT_SiteConfig.pm is included below.

My appreciation for any suggestions.

Matt,

	Navigate to CongifurationGlobalScrips and tell me what scrips  
are listed. Then, navigate to CongifurationQueues(select the

That will give us a good start on finding out what is going on.


Sorry.. to be more specific, I meant to say that I wouldn't know how  
to debug malfunctioning scrips.  Figuring out which ones are there  
and *should* be doing things is pretty straight-forward.


Having gone to do that, It's starting to look to me like our problem  
is a combination of two things:

1) Incorrect assumptions about the default behaviour of the CC field
2) Inconsistent use of CC and AdminCC by my users (and imprecise  
problem reporting)


I've been a bit more direct in my questioning of users, and dug  
around a bit more, and here's what I've found:


It seems that my interpretation of the default On  
{Comment,Correspond} Notify Other Recipients as.. scrips was wrong  
- -- I'd assumed Other Recipients would include CC'd users, and it  
looks like it doesn't.  Does that sound correct to you?


On top of that, my users seem to be trying to use CC and AdminCC  
interchangeably, resulting in inconsistent behaviour with regard to  
mail going out (which might be my fault since I wasn't even clear on  
the difference).


I think the fix here might simply be writing up some simple process  
for the developers/testers to follow.


Thanks for the pointers!
   Matt

I'm not sure about Craig and Kenn, but we're using local files for  
session data because the database didn't work.  I posted a few  
messages about that a couple of weeks ago, but didn't find any  
solutions to the problem.  We were seeing something similar to Kenn..  
basically, people would be logged out randomly as RT failed to get  
their current session cookie from the database.

Thanks, this fixed a similar issue on RT 3.6.5 that I've been seeing,  
but hadn't had time to track down yet.


Worth noting that this bug is in the schema.mysql file, which should  
probably be fixed for the next release.


Cheers,

Re: [rt-users] Unexpected session timeouts, RT 3.6.5

2007-11-21 Thread Matt Pounsett

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1



Okay, so I've temporarily given up on trying to debug this.  I'm  
using the workaround of forcing RT back to using  
Apache::Session::File, which has appeared to work.


For posterity, here's everything I know about the problem along with  
some environmental information, in case someone somewhere down the  
road runs into the same thing and is interested in debugging it  
further than I did.


So...

Using RT 3.6.5 built from Ports on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p8, built to  
use FastCGI.  This is a single web server (no load balancing) with a  
single MySQL database on localhost.


The problem:  It appears that RT is randomly ignoring the session  
information returned to it by MySQL, and is initiating a new session,  
which forces the user back to the login screen.  The problem can be  
reproduced by clicking around the interface until you are  
unexpectedly presented with the login screen.


Watching HTTP headers:

Under normal behaviour, the web browser sends the session cookie to  
the web server and it responds with no new cookie, and whatever  
content was requested.  Periodically it unexpectedly responds with a  
new session cookie and the login page.


Watching MySQL query logs:

When RT unexpectedly presents the user with a login page, the query  
logs show that RT has done a lock, then select for the session ID, an  
unlock, as usual.. but then it inserts a new session row as if the  
query for the old session ID had failed.  Manually running this query  
at this time succeeds and returns the session data.


Watching RT error log:

Set to debug level, the RT error log shows nothing when this happens.

Watching web server error logs:

The web server error logs also show nothing out of the ordinary when  
this occurs.



I did some digging into the db-based session handling in order to  
drop in some overrides in ./rt3/local to add debugging output, but  
didn't get very far before trying the workaround mentioned at the  
beginning of this email.  Since that workaround is sufficient for my  
uses here, I'm sticking with it for now and abandoning further  
debugging.  However, if anyone (Jesse?) has some suggestions I'm  
happy to try them out and report back the results.


Matt
