Torsten,
Hope I got your name right. I have thousands of tickets I need to
convert from one system to RT. I have developed my DataMap. I’m planning
on running an SQL against the old system DB and then within that SQL,
for every record read, create a new RT ticket using CLI. So, the first
thing I wanted to do was try out the commands to get an understanding of
how they worked, etc. I brought RT up in my Dev environment and then
signed in UNIX on that server and tried out a CLI command and it
responded with
bash-2.03$ pwd
/apps/rt
bash-2.03$ rt list “status=‘new’”;
bash: rt: command not found
So, I'm trying to figure out why it won't recognise my command. Not
EVER having done this before, I’m currently looking at $RTHOME/bin/ and
in the “rt” file I read some stuff about configuration being “hardwired
default” and such. I’m really foggy on all of that. Can I assume
(horrible word) that I have to modify file “rt” in $RTHOME/bin with a
bunch of session settings or something? Any and ALL help at this point
is GREATLY appreciated.

Hi Kenneth,
bash-2.03$ pwd
/apps/rt
bash-2.03$ rt list “status=‘new’”;
bash: rt: command not found
It looks like the directory containing “rt” is not in your PATH. The
laziest fix is to just specify the full path to the rt program:
$ /apps/rt/bin/rt list status=‘new’
Shawn
Shawn,
Thanks! That worked! Although now it wants a password so I have to go
find one.
Question: will I be able to embed a CLI command that creates a new
record and sets values for the fields within an SQL without it wanting a
password every time? I hope so. Otherwise I won’t be able to walk thru
the old database and create new tickets in the new DB. Doing this one at
a time is not gonna do at all.

You can set the password and user settings as a shell variable or a .rtrc file, look at the wiki, it is explained good.
More answers tomorrow, it’s midnight here

Torsten,
Midnight! Man, you ARE far away. Thanks for the info. I'll check out
the wiki so I won’t sound so ignorant as I continue to flounder about.
Thanks a lot.

Torsten,
Hey, I got it up without the error of not recognizing the command. I
tried Shawn’s suggestion and keyed in the following:
Export RTUSER=My LDAP User name
Export RTPASSWD=My LDAP password
Export RTSERVER=My Dev server
/apps/rt/rt-3.6.6/bin/rt
At that point, I got the RT prompt. Now all I need to do is try some RT
“Create” commands to see if I can actually create a ticket using CLI.
Then I need to do several at a time and then within a SQL that is in a
shell.
Do you have any examples of CLI that create new tickets? Several in a row?
I appreciate. Thanks a lot.
Kenn
