Hi, It's possible to link e.g. a server to a software inside ITSM. But I'm wondering whether it's possible to direct link a customer to a computer or an software? Currently I found only a link between customer -> ticket -> software (or similar). Thanks Frank

Notification Event
by Justin Cole 13 May '15

13 May '15

Hello, It has been requested of me to set up notifications for both agents and customers in a particular group to notify of ANY changes to a ticket. The reason for this is that we have a user that just wants to follow along and be kept up to date via email. I am having a hard time picking out what “events” to use as a trigger. I can’t seem to find a reasonable definition for each of them so that I know what to include and what not to. Many of them are similar and in our version (3.3.8) there are even duplicates in the events list. There are two of ArticleAgentNotification and ArticleCustomerNotification each. Can someone please point me in the right direction as my google fu is failing me. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Storing of large/binary data in Non-MySQL databases
by Christoph Zwerschke 07 May '15

07 May '15

When trying to migrate our OTRS database from MySQL to PostgreSQL, I noticed that the MySQL database uses LONGBLOBs in several places, which are binary objects, while on the other hand, OTRS creates TEXT columns for these columns when using PostgreSQL, which is a character type, not binary. Similarly, for Oracle and SQLServer, OTRS also uses character types for these columns. This makes it difficult to migrate between the databases, because you need to transform from binary to character, using the proper encoding. From looking at the source code, most of the LONGBLOBs are assumed to be UTF-8 encoded strings which can be converted to Postgres TEXT with convert_to(column, 'utf8'), while other LONGBLOBs, e.g. those storing representing attachments are assumed to be binary resp. the original encoding of the attachment. These are handled differently by OTRS - for databases other than MySQL, OTRS stores them in BASE64 encoding. The conversion can be done with Postgres using encode(column, 'base64'). My question is: Why do the other databases use character objects for all the LONGBLOBs including those that really contain binary data, so that for these databases, a BASE64 encoding is necessary, which costs performance when encoding and decoding and 33% more storage? Wouldn't it be much better and easier if OTRS used BLOBs consistently across all databases for the binary columns, and TEXT for the other large columns? All the databases support this. The BLOBs are just called BYTEA in Postgres. And MySQL also has LONGTEXT, no need to use LONGBLOBs if it's actually text. Also, would it be possible to use BYTEA in PostgreSQL instead of TEXT for the binary data columns, changing the database scheme accordingly and setting the DB::DirectBlob flag to 1 so that OTRS stops BASE64 encoding these columns? -- Christoph

OTRS Appliance 4.0.7 - Cannot Login
by Stefan Wagner 06 May '15

06 May '15

Hello everybody, I installed the OTRS Appliance 4.0.7 on a virtual machine and everything looks good. It tells me that the default user is "root@localhost" with the password "root". I can open the web frontend (http://192.168.178.84/otrs/customer.pl) but if I try to login I get the message that the username or password is wrong. I tried to add another user via the command line - it told me it worked, but I cannot login with this credentials either. I also tried to change the password of the root@localhost user, it told me again it worked, but no luck in the web frontend. I also double checked the server name (it is the only otrs server running in the local network and the IP address is the same). Any idea how I can get a working login? Best regards! Stefan
