change of link type

Hello there, We were asked to change the names of the type of links available for linking two configuration items. We went to the link_type table and changed the names but it was not reflected on the front end. Then we realized that the're also written on the following two files: /opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ZZZAAuto.pm /opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ITSMCore.xml Even though I changed the following on each one, the new link type is not shown: */opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ZZZAuto.pm :* $Self->{'LinkObject::PossibleLink'}->{'3202'} = { 'Object1' => 'ITSMConfigItem', 'Object2' => 'ITSMConfigItem', 'Type' => 'Ubicado en' }; */opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ITSMCore.xml :* <ConfigItem Name="LinkObject::PossibleLink###3202" Required="0" Valid="1"> <Description Lang="en">This setting defines that a 'ITSMConfigItem'
object can be linked with other 'ITSMConfigItem' objects using the 'DependsOn' link type.</Description>
<Description Lang="de">Definiert, dass ein 'ITSMConfigItem'-Objekt
mit dem Linktyp 'DependsOn' mit anderen 'ITSMConfigItem'-Objekten verlinkt werden kann.</Description>
<Group>Framework</Group> <SubGroup>Core::LinkObject</SubGroup> <Setting> <Hash> <Item Key="Object1">ITSMConfigItem</Item> <Item Key="Object2">ITSMConfigItem</Item> <Item Key="Type">Ubicado en</Item> </Hash> </Setting> </ConfigItem> What else should be done to change those link types? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, Leonardo Certuche www.itconsultores.com.co Medellín, Colombia

Hi Leonardo, the type cannot be changed. You should consider to just change the language file to reflect the wanted name for the link type. grep -r "Depends on” /opt/otrs/Kernel/ Cheers, Nils On 06.12.2010, at 18:06, Leonardo Certuche wrote:

Even though I changed the following on each one, the new link type is not shown:
/opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ZZZAuto.pm :
$Self->{'LinkObject::PossibleLink'}->{'3202'} = { 'Object1' => 'ITSMConfigItem', 'Object2' => 'ITSMConfigItem', 'Type' => 'Ubicado en' };
/opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ITSMCore.xml :
<ConfigItem Name="LinkObject::PossibleLink###3202" Required="0" Valid="1"> <Description Lang="en">This setting defines that a 'ITSMConfigItem' object can be linked with other 'ITSMConfigItem' objects using the 'DependsOn' link type.</Description> <Description Lang="de">Definiert, dass ein 'ITSMConfigItem'-Objekt mit dem Linktyp 'DependsOn' mit anderen 'ITSMConfigItem'-Objekten verlinkt werden kann.</Description> <Group>Framework</Group> <SubGroup>Core::LinkObject</SubGroup> <Setting> <Hash> <Item Key="Object1">ITSMConfigItem</Item> <Item Key="Object2">ITSMConfigItem</Item> <Item Key="Type">Ubicado en</Item> </Hash> </Setting> </ConfigItem>
