Outbound SMTP Spooler?
by Hugh Kelley 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

I had a temporary mail server authentication issue recently. Example below. [Sun Oct 24 23:11:06 2010][Error][Kernel::System::Email::SMTP::Send][117] SMTP authentication failed: 5355.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful. This caused my outbound messages and notifications to be undelivered. Now that the original issue has been resolved I was hoping the messages would be dequeued and sent. That doesn't appear to be the case. Is there a setting I can enable to cause spooling? Are the messages somewhere I'm not looking? Hugh

Graph stats
by GARDAIS Ionel 23 Oct '10

23 Oct '10

Hi list, I'm new to OTRS but I succeed in having a working server connected to multiple LDAP for multiple customers. I've played a bit with tickets : create, answer, close or wait for escalation. Unfortunaly, I'm trying to get some graph stats and all I can get is a desperately flat graph. I'd like to create a stat report with : - the last (week or month) on the X axis - the average first response time on the Y axis - a selection of queues as input data. I tried multiple combination but never succeeded. I'm using OTRS 3.0b5 with a mysql DB. Thanks for your help, Ionel

OTRS 3 database compatibility
by Jos Vos 22 Oct '10

22 Oct '10

Hi, Can I safely assume that databases created with OTRS 3.0.0 beta5 can also be used with the final 3.0.0 version or (of not) that tools will become available to convert the database?

use of Escalation parameter on GenericAgent.pm
by Leonardo Certuche 22 Oct '10

22 Oct '10

Hello there, I have a question regarding the use of Escalation on GenericAgent.pm that hopefully some of you could kindly answer. The following example is found at /opt/otrs/Kernel/Config/GenericAgent.pm.examples 'move escalation ticket to experts' => { # get all tickets with these properties Queue => 'xyz', Escalation => 1, # new ticket properties New => { Queue => 'experts', }, }, As far as I understand, Escalation => 1 means that the ticket was actually escalated but, to which of the three escalations available refers? How can I distinguish between First Response, Update or Solution time? I'm asking because we're evaluating the possibility of using Update Time (which always escalates on this environment since Customers never send updates) to move a ticket from one queueA to queueB if Agents of queueA weren't able to solve the ticket before the time stored in Update Time is reached. That way Agents of queueB will see this ticket on their queue and they will be able to solve it before Solution time is reached. Thanks in advance for your help, Leonardo Certuche www.itconsultores.com.co Medellín, Colombia

backup.pl password question
by Mark Novak 21 Oct '10

21 Oct '10

Hello Everyone, I am trying to use the provided backup.pl script to backup up my OTRS installation on Ubuntu Linux. The first part of the script works fine, but I get an error during the database dump: Dump MySQL rdbms ... mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'otrs'@'localhost' (using password: YES) when trying to connect I know that the database name, user name and password are stored in Config.pm. However, in Config.pm, it does not actually show the DB password: $Self->{DatabasePw} = $dbpass; I think that the problem is that my database password uses special characters. I have tried escaping them with a \ and specifying the password in Config.pm, but that doesn't seem to work. I am not sure if it is a problem with my escaping or if it is a function on Config.pm and backup.plthat it won't take a specified password as input. Can I change the password of the dbuser on this production system in mysql to something that doesn't have special characters? I want to ensure that it will not negatively impact my system if I make the password change. Best Regards, Mark Novak

by Will Bradshaw 20 Oct '10

20 Oct '10

We are upgrading from OTRS 2.0.4 (Debian 4.0) to OTRS 2.4.7 (Ubuntu 10.04 Server). These are two completely different machines, but I need to migrate my data from the old system to the new. What steps should I take to use the backup.pl and restore.pl respectively. I understand that I will also need to run a DBUpdate-to-2.4.pl. Just to recap, here is my setup: BOX1 OTRS 2.0.4 using mysql BOX2 OTRS 2.4.7 using mysql What do I need to do moving forward to get all of my existing data from BOX1 to BOX2 and convert the database to 2.4?
