Re: [otrs] Generic Agent (Rory)

Went through the directions however after running sudo ./Cron.sh restart fireline it lists Cron.sh start/stop OTRS ..... four times then I do crontab -l and I get nothing? For your system you would run; sudo ./Cron.sh restart fireline Once the script has run check that the crontab for the otrs user has been filled crontab -l Once done, review your crontab backup file for any entries you might want to restore to you otrs users crontab and add them as necessary.

Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi Garabed, We can see now that your Cron jobs are running correctly from this line; Oct 5 08:55:01 support CRON[32664]: (fireline) CMD (date) So the next thing to do is get the OTRS cron jobs included in the crontab. Firstly log in as your otrs user, fireline. List the current items of the crontab and save them to a file (in case you need to keep anything that is currently in the OTRS user's crontab) e.g. crontab -l > /opt/otrs/20111006_cronbackup When you run the otrs Cron.sh script it will overwrite whatever is currently in your crontab for the otrs user. Switch to the OTRS bin directory; cd /opt/otrs/bin The syntax for running the Cron.sh script as root is as follows sudo ./Cron.sh For your system you would run; sudo ./Cron.sh restart fireline Once the script has run check that the crontab for the otrs user has been filled crontab -l Once done, review your crontab backup file for any entries you might want to restore to you otrs users crontab and add them as necessary. Last thing is to make sure the generic agent crontab entry is enabled. List the contents of your crontab and look for the section about the Generic Agent. Make sure the following line does not have a hash symbol (#) at the start of the line which sould comment it out; */10 * * * * $HOME/bin/otrs.GenericAgent.pl -c db >> /dev/null If the line is commented out with a # then open the crontab for editing and remove it. Save the changes and you are done.

From this point on the crontab should be working correctly. If the Cron.sh script still didn't run for some reason let us know. The next thing to check is that your generic agent has run. Check the otrs log file when you expect your Generic Agent to have run to confirm that it worked.

Let us know how you get on.

Hi All,

Does anybody know how to stop formatting of event based notifications (ie. inserting new line character every know and then)?

Currently when we add a note, the email sent to the customer can look like below which doesn't look very clear.

Note added: "a problem with its' Clustered HA firewalling system which is affecting the even numbered mimecast servers"

Notification sent:

...

a problem with its' Clustered HA firewalling system which is affecting the even numbered mimecast servers

I would like the notification to have the same format as the note added.

-- Thanks a lot Robert
