OTRS + CRM Implementation
by Chris Watt 26 May '25

26 May '25

I have been googling this for hours and it seems to have been mentioned on here but no one has ever given anything. What I want to do is link OTRS with a CRM program like SugarCRM (or similar). Has anyone done this before/know how to do it? Basically I want the tickets to be copied into SugarCRM automatically, with all approriate fields, and customers to be stored in the same location. I read somewhere that one guy had done it but he provided no further info. Cany anyone help? Cheers ~Chris

Custom TicketMenu Module for custom link in ticket zoom
by Alessio Tosi 26 Aug '10

26 Aug '10

I'm trying to create a custome Ticket Menu module that open another web application passing ticket information: TicketID and Ticket Number I've created a new module in /Output/HML TicketModuleChiamate.pm as mentioned in http://doc.otrs.org/developer/2.2/en/html/x533.html#ticket-module-menu with declaration of the package package Kernel::Output::HTML::TicketMenuChiamate; and registered the module in Config.pm # for ticket recording menu $Self->{'Ticket::Frontend::MenuModule'}->{'900-Chiamate'} = { 'Action' => 'AgentTicketChiamate', 'Module' => 'Kernel::Output::HTML::TicketMenuChiamate', 'Name' => 'Chiamate' }; What I'd like to do is open a new web page with an url I've changed the code to do $Self->{LayoutObject}->Block( Name => 'MenuItem', Data => { %{$Param{Config}}, %Param, Name => 'Chiamate', Description => 'Apri una chiamata Supporto!', Link => 'http://chiamate.osi.lan/default.aspx?&TicketID=$QData{"TicketID"}&TicketN umber=$QData{"TicketNumber"}', }, ); but when I click on the link I'm redirected to http://otrsDNSname/otrs/index.pl?http://chiamate.osi.lan/default.aspx?&Tic ketID=545803&TicketNumber=2063589 Is it possible to ignore the base url that is put at the beginning of the url Ciao AleX

Background color in agent web interface
by Régis OBERLE 27 Sep '09

27 Sep '09

Hello OTRS fans, I've just upgraded from ITSM 1.0.2 to ITSM 1.1.1 The background color (above header and below footer) of the agent web interface has changed from white to dark blue. How can I revert back to white ? Which file in Kernel/Output/HTML has to be changed ? I had a look but it's hard to find for a newbie. Thanks and regards, Régis

UTF-8 breaks 2.3.4 SysConfig interface
by Paul 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hi all, I upgraded OTRS 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 and found that when $Self->{DefaultCharset} is set to 'utf-8', the SysConfig area of the Admin interface results in a 500 server error. Apache error logs show the following: [Sun Mar 01 17:45:56 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [Sun Mar 1 18:45:56 2009] index.pl: utf8 "\\xF6" does not map to Unicode at ../..//Kernel/System/Config.pm line 161, <$In> chunk 1., referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin [Sun Mar 01 17:45:56 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [Sun Mar 1 18:45:56 2009] index.pl: utf8 "\\xFC" does not map to Unicode at ../..//Kernel/System/Config.pm line 161, <$In> chunk 1., referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin [Sun Mar 01 17:45:57 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [Sun Mar 1 18:45:57 2009] index.pl: utf8 "\\xE4" does not map to Unicode at ../..//Kernel/System/Config.pm line 161, <$In> chunk 1., referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin [Sun Mar 01 17:45:58 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [Sun Mar 1 18:45:58 2009] index.pl: utf8 "\\xFC" does not map to Unicode at ../..//Kernel/System/Config.pm line 161, <$In> chunk 1., referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin [Sun Mar 01 17:45:58 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] [Sun Mar 1 18:45:58 2009] index.pl: Malformed UTF-8 character (unexpected non-continuation byte 0x67, immediately after start byte 0xfc) in subroutine entry at /usr/lib/perl/5.8/Data/Dumper.pm line 179., referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin [Sun Mar 01 17:45:58 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x095c6590 ***, referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin [Sun Mar 01 17:45:58 2009] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Premature end of script headers: index.pl, referer: https://otrs.host/path/index.pl?Action=Admin Changing the default charset to iso-8859-1 the problem goes away. Any ideas? We need UTF-8. Reverting to 2.3.3 resolves the issue as well with utf-8. Best wishes, Paul

Problem with FS based tiff's and IE
by Steve Wakham 29 May '09

29 May '09

We have been storing tickets in the database for years and since now 90 days of tickets is 120gb, we decided to move to the FS based storage engine. We have hit a strange problem, .tif attachments stored on the FS add an additional line to the top of the download when we hit it with IE: image/tiff; name="fax000519537.tif" If I save the attachment in IE and edit the file and remove that line, it opens just fine in the tiff viewers. Oddly Firefox does not do this. I've checked the file on the FS and it doesn't add that line, I've looked at the code a pretty good bit and havn't been able to locate where you might be adding this content-type to the actual data attachment. We were running version 1.3.2 and upgraded to the latest: 2.3.4 and saw the problem in both versions. Thinking it may be a streaming problem, I've googled around for mime types and apache headers for tif and all say image/tiff which I have in /etc/mime.conf, but I added an additional Type in apache just to make sure, but it didnt work either. Has anyone see this problem? Thanks, Steve

Workflow view queues
by Steve Hall 29 May '09

29 May '09

Hi, We're just expanding our use of OTRS 2.3.4 in that we have new roles, which have dedicated queues defined for them for privacy, etc. When the agent views the Workflow View they are presented with the default list of queues : Advisory : Hotline : Incident. How do I change this default view so that they can see by default the queue defined for that group? Thanks in advance.
