Hello guys, We have an OpenNMS System Installed on the machine where we have OTRS 3.3 installed with all ITSM packages. So is there a way to configure the OTRS to pick up the services status from OpenNMS? If yes, how can I configure it? Thanks in advance.

OTRS 3.3.1 Ticket Overview
by Nick Lapp 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

I just upgraded to OTRS 3.3.1 and the new Ticket Queue Overview module on the dashboard is showing "No data found." I've also added a new statistics module to the dashboard and it just displays a message about the data being prepared but it never appears. Any suggestions? Thanks! Nick

Regular "Permission denied" in cronjobs since update to 3.2
by Frank Thommen 04 Nov '13

04 Nov '13

Hi, since updating OTRS 3.1 to 3.2 (RPM installation on CentOS 5) I regularly get permission error messages from the various cronjobs (otrs.PostMasterMailbox.pl, otrs.DeleteCache.pl, otrs.LoaderCache.pl). Examples: * Message: Can't remove file /opt/otrs/var/tmp/CacheFileStorable/CacheInternalLoader/a/5/a5a7a46de71ce8a7f3f0961aecf5c8ba: Permission denied * Message: Can't write '/opt/otrs/var/tmp/CacheFileStorable/CacheInternalTicket/8/f/8fd2c543e3d23358aec0983fbda050cf': Permission denied * mkdir /opt/otrs/var/tmp/CacheFileStorable/DynamicFieldValue/b/8: Permission denied at /opt/otrs/Kernel/System/Cache/FileStorable.pm line 81 The directory in question is of course not always the same. Sometimes the script finally succeeds or - in the case of otrs.PostMasterMailbox.pl - I fetch the mail manually from the administration panel. The failing otrs.PostMasterMailbox.pl creates lots of nasty problems like multiple identical tickets or multiple empty tickets etc. In fact the permissions of some directories seem to be wrong. Example: # ls -al /opt/otrs/var/tmp/CacheFileStorable/DynamicFieldValue total 64 drwxrwsr-x 16 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 . drwxrwsr-x 26 otrs apache 4096 Sep 16 10:48 .. drwxrwsr-x 4 otrs apache 4096 Sep 16 12:30 0 drwxrwsr-x 6 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 14:40 1 drwxr-sr-x 3 apache apache 4096 Sep 10 19:47 2 drwxrwsr-x 4 otrs apache 4096 Sep 16 15:10 3 drwxr-sr-x 3 apache apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 4 drwxr-sr-x 4 apache apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 5 drwxrwsr-x 4 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 6 drwxr-sr-x 3 apache apache 4096 Sep 9 18:53 8 drwxrwsr-x 5 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 14:50 9 drwxrwsr-x 6 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 a drwxr-sr-x 4 apache apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 b drwxrwsr-x 4 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 c drwxrwsr-x 5 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 14:50 d drwxrwsr-x 5 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 e # ls -al /opt/otrs/var/tmp/CacheFileStorable/DynamicFieldValue/b total 16 drwxr-sr-x 4 apache apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 . drwxrwsr-x 16 otrs apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 .. drwxr-sr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Sep 10 19:03 0 drwxr-sr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Sep 17 19:13 8 # The involved accounts are 'otrs' and 'apache': # id -a otrs uid=500(otrs) gid=48(apache) groups=48(apache) # id -a apache uid=48(apache) gid=48(apache) groups=48(apache), [...and many others...] # Running `/opt/otrs/bin/otrs.SetPermissions.pl --otrs-user=otrs --web-user=apache --otrs-group=apache --web-group=apache /opt/otrs` only solved the problem temporarily (on existing directories). The problem seems to be, that directories created by 'apache' (via the web frontend) are missing write permission for the group, while directories created by 'otrs' (through cronjobs) have correct permissions. Any idea how to solve this problem? It's extremely annoying and I didn't have this with OTRS 3.1. Also I wonder, why this problem only appeared after the (rpm) update from 3.1 to 3.2. System: CentOS 5, OTRS installed with rpm install, SELinux is disabled. frank

timeaccounting module and csv export
by Dirk Völlger 27 Oct '13

27 Oct '13

Hello, I have a question concerning the timeaccounting module. I would like to export in csv the reporting as created by the module. Using the statistics is not really satisfying. Of course i could write a script and read out the data directly from the database. But before doing so, I wanted to know if it's generally possible to export the timeaccounting report somehow in csv. Do you have any idea? I am using OTRS 3.2 and timeaccounting module V2.2.1 Thank you! dirk

Re: [otrs] Free additional modules for OTRS 3.3
by Anna Brakoniecka 25 Oct '13

25 Oct '13

Hello, we've published new modules for OTRS 3.3. They make it easier to import/export some OTRS data and the already well received module ITSM-CIAttributeCollection that provides additional CI-attributes. Additionally, you can install ConfigureCallHome. It disables the unrequested automatic communication of installed packages and other system details to OTRS AG (can be enabled by configuration) and it sends notification to an email-address you fill. You can find them all online at: http://www.cape-it.de/free-otrs-community-additional-modules.html <http://www.cape-it.de/free-otrs-community-additional-modules.html> and at OPAR: http://opar.perl-services.de Here is the list of relevant modules: - ITSM-CIAttributeCollection :: 2.3.0 (OTRS 3.3.x) - ConfigureCallHome::1.2.0 (OTRS 3.3.x) - ServiceImportExport::1.3.0 (OTRS 3.3.x) - CustomerUserImportExport::1.9.2 --> BugFix - CustomerUserImportExport::1.10 (OTRS 3.3.x) - CustomerCompanyImportExport::1.4.0 (OTRS 3.3.x) Enjoy!

Generate New Ticket(s) from Process-Ticket
by Mnich, Jürgen 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Hi! I already know, that there are certain transition actions that can be used when you define a ticket process. Is there - additionally - a way to generate new ticket(s) from within the workflow of a process ticket? So long, Juergen.
