Subject: Re: [rt-users] Incoming message content
Well, Jesse. Chalk this up in the silly installer file. My web server and
mail server are not the same machine and I set up the transaction directory
in a place that was unique to each machine, i.e. not common. I have fixed
this and now I can see the incoming AND outgoing messages.
Thank you for you assistance. It is always helpful to have someone asking
the right questions and pointing you in the right direction. Sorry about
the silly mistake.

OK. I did that
make fixperms

chown rt /homes/admin/public_html/rt/uproar/bin/suid_wrapper
chmod 4111 /homes/admin/public_html/rt/uproar/bin/suid_wrapperbut I still dodn’t see the incoming messages. I submitted a new request by
email just to be sure.Here’s something I hadn’t tried yet. I just created a new request via the
web site and I can see the message that I created in the ticket view. Is
there a difference in the way the internal request is handled versus a
request made via email?Warren

Ah. there’s some brokenness with some bsd variants
fixperms is a case in the RT makefile
cd into the directory you unpacked RT into
and type ‘make fixperms’
Well, I thought it might be that the web interface couldn’t read the
transaction logs but that doesn’t seem to be the case. As far as the suid
bit, this is what the bin directory looks like:dr-xr-xr-x 2 rt rt 512 Aug 7 19:58 cgi

BTW, this is a new install of RT 1.0.3

either a permissions problem or the mailgate lost its suid bit
Try running make fixperms
Yes, RT replys to the sender and it contains a copy of the sender’s email.
RT assigns a number to the request. The request shows up in the ticket view
as ‘Request created by email@domain.com’ but there is no message content.
If I click the reply icon, it shows ‘email@domain.com wrote (date info):’
but no message content again. In the transactions directory, I can see the
incoming messages and headers. Replies are displayed in the ticket view
with message content.Hmmm, I think I may have a permissions problem with the transaction
directory. I’ll let you know.Warren

Do you get a reply back when you send in a ticket?
Does it get to rt (per your sendmail logs)
what else can you tell me?
Here’s my aliases:
rt: “|/homes/admin/public_html/rt/uproar/bin/rt-mailgate
lottosupport correspond”
rt-action: “|/homes/admin/public_html/rt/uproar/bin/rt-mailgate
lottosupport action”They look a lot like what’s in the docs to me.

Might be something like not reading the docs… What do your mail aliases
look like?
I must be missing something simple here but I can’t seem to get the content
of incoming messages to be logged or displayed. Outgoing replies are fine.
Am I missing a template or is it something dumber like not reading the
docs?Warren
