How to patch OTRS
by Mohamed-Amine Kadimi 08 Sep '09

08 Sep '09

Hello I'd like to know the correct way to patch OTRS with the last minor version (e.g. 2.4.1 -> 2.4.4). The included help file only explains how to upgrade from 2.3 to 2.4 which requires database migration. Thanks all.

Auto replies not sent
by Srg Pac 08 Sep '09

08 Sep '09

Hello, I'm having a problem with the auto replies in that they aren't being sent. The logs indicate that no auto reply was sent because the "*sender doesn't want a auto-response (e.g. loop or precedence header)".* Test messages sent to support@ourdomain are forwarded to otrs@ourdomain, where they are picked up by otrs and now have the "precedence: list" header. Is this the root of the problem and if so is there a way to force the sending of the replies? Cheers, SRG

"Apache" ownership of dtl files I am not permitted to edit
by Lev Davidovich 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Hi I have lately been unable to edit some dtl files which I have edited before. Apparently this is because the onwership of the files is "Apache" (with "rw-r--r--" permissions) and only the superuser with root acces can edit them. Since I have edited these files before, I am at a loss to understand what has occurred - whether the ownership of those files has changed after I have edited them, or whether changes to the SysConfig front end changes the ownership of these files. Has anyone else experienced such unforeseen changes of file ownership/permissions and have a plausible explanation for why they might occur? And what I can possibly do about the situation - I need to edit some of those files! Many thanks Lev

SLA Notifications on OTRS 2.3.4 not working
by Kaul, Sunjay 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Hi, I am evaluating OTRS 2.3.4 for my organization, I do not have ITSM I have configured Services and associated SLAs with them. I have also associated Customers with Services but still can't get the OTRS system to generate notifications on SLAs being breached. Could I be going wrong somewhere? I get notifications on creation, closure etc. Any help would be appreciated.

Trouble with LDAP customer back-end and new ticket creation
by Mischa Capazario 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Hi, I have just set up LDAP (Active Directory) back-end for customer users on OTRS. I can login fine using my credentials from active directory, the problem I am experiencing is that when using the LDAP back-end trying to create a new ticket from the customer.pl front-end results in long delays, in excess of a minute. These delays are experienced after clicking on the New Ticket button before the form appears and also on each refresh of the form when the drop-down lists are selected. Switching to the database back-end but maintaining the LDAP authentication fixes the problem. Using database back-end and authentication fixes the problem. There are no long delays on logging in or searching for customer users from the admin interface, so it does not seem to be any direct link with the speed of the LDAP server. I have not been able to find anything relating to this problem with google. I am using OTRS 2.4.4 with ITSM 1.3.1, although I experienced the same problem with earlier versions of OTRS 2.4.x. Has anybody experienced something similar. Any suggestions of where I should look to resolve this problem? Thanks, Mischa

Upgrade 2.4.3 to 2.4.4
by David Holder 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Hi Everyone, Simple question really, I've got OTRS 2.4.3 installed and wish to upgrade to 2.4.4, what is the procedure for this? I can see there are instructions for upgrading from previous versions (2.3.X) but not from 2.4. I have it installed on Fedora Core, although I'm a bit new to Linux. Is it a matter of doing a yum update (will this retain system settings?)/extracting files from the tarball? Thanks, David
