Adding custom status fields - failed

Hello,

I searched through the old archives as suggested and found a message
from May 20, 2004. It said to create a file in /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/
called Queue_Local.pm with the following content:

Queue_Local.pm

@ACTIVE_STATUS =3D qw(new open stalled onhold intesting);
@INACTIVE_STATUS =3D qw(resolved rejected deleted);
@STATUS =3D (@ACTIVE_STATUS, @INACTIVE_STATUS);

1; # the file needs to end with this

I added it, and when I restarted the web server (Apache on SuSe 8.0),
it complained about the "3D"s, so I removed them, restarted again, and
everything compiled fine.

Problem is, the statuses I added do not show up once I relogin to RT.

Any idea what this issue(s) is/are?

Again, I’m running RT 3.0.4

-Chris.

Do the custom status show up in ticket detail? If it does, then chances
are you’re just not seeing it in some “views”. I had the same problem
until I realized the “views” were actually search queries and the
queries did not include the custom status I created. What I did was to
customize those queries to include the custom status in the search.

Same question asked of the original poster in that thread.

Did you restart your web server?
