I installed RTx - statistics on 12/21/05. Ever since then the results pages
are coming back blank. The home page also. Just logging in, this could
happen. The alternate lines with colors are coming back but no information.
I then hit the home button again and the tickets will show up. We can
reproduce this consistently. I thought it was an Internet explorer problem
but it has happens in firefox also.
Here is our configuration
RT 3.4.1
Mysql 4.1
Debian sarge
Rtx Statistics 1.6.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

A few people have seen this now (I think the count is 3), and I’m kind of lost to know how to track it down. Does anyone have any ideas? Jesse?
In the meantime, Rob, did you clear the mason cache while httpd was down during installation? If not, try bringing down apache, then clearing the mason cache, and see if that helps.
The only other thing I can say is that most people say that if they reload the page several times it goes away (for awhile).

Kelly, I did see a note on the site about clearing cache after another
installation so I tried that.
yes, I did shut down apache. I did clear the mason_data/obj directory and
then restarted the web server.
The problem happens more with IE then firefox.
I am able to reproduce this problem in 3.4.4( installed on RHEL 4.0) and
3.4.1( installed on Debian Sarge)
it started right after I installed the statistics package.
How do I remove the statistics package?
Thanks for the quick response.
Rob

The philosophy of the Make Maker modules is that uninstall is unsafe, so
they don’t product a working uninstall in the makefile. It is supposed
to list out the files that you should remove by hand, unfortunately
there’s a bug in one of those modules that means this fails when you
don’t install to the prel site libs. So, you should have a file
/opt/rt3/local/lib/RTx/Statistics/.packlist, which lists all the files
that were installed, remove them.
Also unfortunately, because of the same bug, if you do another install
that only installs some of the files, it overwrites the .packlist file.
In this case you can do a find from /opt/rt3 looking for directories
named Statistics and remove them. The list of directories should look
like:
[root@rtsupport rt3]# find . -name Statistics -print
./share/html/RTx/Statistics
./local/lib/auto/RTx/Statistics
./local/html/Callbacks/Statistics

We also experience this after installing the Statistics package. Happens in Mozilla&Firefox for us. If you want a visual idea of the problem, a screenshot is at:

I looked at the HTML source, and it’s all good, just that the cells have NO content in them. Now, why i get the ticket status (open,new), but no other ticket content is strange.
My belief is that this data nullification problem happens ONLY when someone is using (or just used) the Statistics package (it’s been stable for the past couple of days when noone used the tool). It affects all users queries sporadically (i.e. refreshes may or may not cause the data to appear immediately, but it will eventually). So, this appears to either be a global cache corruption problem, or perhaps my MySQL server gets overwhelmed and negative responses are silently dropped. Nothing appears in rt.log (at debug level), but i haven’t attempted to see if the MySQL server is complaining.

I haven’t had time to dig at the code. We’ve got a big release coming up
on Sunday. My first guess would be a broken autohandler callback.

In this case “It” is Jifty, our new Web application framework, complete
with automatic database setup and upgrade support, a clean new syntax
for model class definitions, AJAX support (with equivalent functionality
for non-AJAX browsers), support for continuations-based web programming
and a built in database admin UI.
We’re using it for a “new thing” that’s not quite ready for release yet,
but when I tried to create the second application (a wiki), it took me
about two hours (and less than 100loc) to go from 0 to Wiki. We’ve
since refined things quite a bit. I’m pretty sure I could build the same
thing on stage in < 10 minutes and 20 loc. 
Oh, and it comes with a pony.

It’s probably because component
html/RTx/Statistics/Elements/StatColumnMap
which declares global $COLUMN_MAP, thus clobbering
the one RT declares.
Whoever the author is needs to give it a unique name.
Been there, done that…

DAMN. I renamed the file but forgot to rename the variable.
OK, well, no promises, but I’ll try to get out a 0.1.7 with this change
in the next few days…
