Re: [rt-users] Custom Fields - Incorrect Order on 3.8.10

2011-10-10 Thread Charles Kugelman
Hi Ruslan,

I wanted to provide an update on this.

The upgrade to DBIx::SearchBuilder 1.61 and a restart of the webserver does 
appear to have resolved this.

Thanks again for your help!

SB to 1.57 at least and it will start working. Don't forget to restart web

Hi Ruslan,

(1) We're using DBIx::SearchBuilder 1.54.

(2) Here is the output of your query:

NAMENAMESORTORDER
Manager's Name  Add New Employee2
Last Name   Add New Employee1
First Name  Add New Employee0

The "SORTORDER" does appear to be in the order that I had set for the CFs on 
this queue. The actual displayed order is: (0) Manager's Name, (1) First Name, 
and then (2) Last Name.

(3) Here are the CustomFields queries from the RT log.

Hi,

Which version of DBIx::SearchBuilder module do you use? Upgrade to
1.53 at least.

Run the following query and send results:

SELECT cf.Name, q.Name, ocf.SortOrder FROM ObjectCustomFields ocf JOIN
CustomFields cf ON cf.id = ocf.CustomField LEFT JOIN Queues q ON q.id
= ocf.ObjectId;

Enable SQL logging, open ticket's page with custom fields and send
queries from the log that select custom fields.

[rt-users] Custom Fields - Incorrect Order on 3.8.10

2011-09-30 Thread Charles Kugelman
Hello All,

 

We recently updated RT from 3.8.2 to 3.8.10 (planning to go to version 4
at a later date).

 

We've always had an issue (with 3.8.2) where the Custom Fields (under
Queue>Ticket Custom Fields) will work great for a while after they're
added to a queue but will start to malfunction on the queue after some
time (most notably after adding additional CFs to the queue). This
behavior seems to have carried over to 3.8.10 for our environment,
though I was hopeful it would not due to the CF ordering fix in 3.8.8.

 

The malfunction generally consists of three things:

1.   When trying to change the order of the CFs on a queue (using
the Up and Down links), RT will report that the CF was moved up or down.
The position of the "moved" custom field however will remain unchanged. 

2.   When at the create tickets page for queue with the CFs applied,
the order of the CFs is exactly the same as in item 1, not as I
initially had them ordered. This is the most problematic part for users
due to the chaotic order of CFs on the create ticket screen.

3.   Once a queue is broken (i.e. the CFs have stopped responding to
my ordering requests using the Up/Down links), it seems to stay that way
(even if I remove all the CFs and re-add them).

 

There are quite a few customized pages/etc. in the /opt/rt3/local
directory (which were made using files from 3.8.2). This may be
contributing to the problem, but I'm not sure which (if any) of these
pages could be contributing to the issue.

 

We're running RT 3.8.10 using an Oracle database.

 

Any thoughts?
