Hello,
we upgraded to 3.8. today. Worked well, and I have to say: Great work on
3.8., really!
A few things seem to be missing from our installation, however. While I see
the new “Dashboards”-search in “Rt at a glance”, there is no search
selectable for Bookmarks. Also, I can’t find the graphical relationship
chart. And should there be anything about pgp in the preferences?
Basically, what I did is I checked all dependencies, make-installed a fresh
installation to /opt/rt3 (3.6.3 had been running in /home/rt3) and ran
rt-setup-database --dba xxxxx --prompt-for-dba-password --action upgrade.
Any thoughts where I might have gone wrong? Again: Everything else works
like a charm, and (again): It looks great and we look forward to working
with it.
Thanks for any input!

A few things seem to be missing from our installation, however.
While I see
the new “Dashboards”-search in “Rt at a glance”, there is no search
selectable for Bookmarks.
It should be another portlet like “My Bookmarks” or “Bookmarked
Tickets” in the user’s “RT At a glance” preferences"
Also, I can’t find the graphical relationship
chart.
On any ticket’s display page, there should be a “Graph” link in the
upper-right corner of the links box. If it’s not there, you may not
have graphviz installed.
And should there be anything about pgp in the preferences?
Only if RT could find gpg when starting up.
It should be another portlet like “My Bookmarks” or “Bookmarked
Tickets” in the user’s “RT At a glance” preferences"
There is not, that’s why I wrote. Is there a way to insert it manually?

Have you overridden HomepageComponents?

No, I didn’t touch it:
Set($HomepageComponents, [qw(QuickCreate Quicksearch MyAdminQueues

Was that a mistake?

Nope. Looks ok. Have you run the database upgrades that come as part
of 3.8?

Well, hm. I ran rt-setup-database and told it to upgrade from 3.6.3. I’m
pretty sure it changed the database, and it didn’t complain. But maybe I’m
missing something?

–action upgrade you’ve run have to add this portlet to default system
settings. So all people who are using defaults must see it on RT at
Glance

use one of ./configure options to make sure all dependencies are
there, this as well applies to gpg support.
And should there be anything about pgp in the preferences?
Only if RT could find gpg when starting up.
GPG integration is pretty well documented in perldoc lib/RT/Crypt/GnuPG.pm which is referenced from RT_Config.pm
As well as jesse said it can be disabled during server start, try to
log everything.
Basically, what I did is I checked all dependencies, make-installed
a fresh
installation to /opt/rt3 (3.6.3 had been running in /home/rt3) and ran
rt-setup-database --dba xxxxx --prompt-for-dba-password --action

I’m having similar issues. Just upgraded from 3.6.7. I have run the
database upgrade script and verified that HomepageComponents is set to
defaults. Still no bookmark options are available when setting up my
“RT at a glance”. Any tips? Could you recommend a database table or
index that I should check for to make sure bookmark support was properly
added to the DB?

From what I understand the relevant part of the upgrade for the bookmarks is
stored in etc/upgrade/3.7.82.
I ran
rt-setup-database --dba server --prompt-for-dba-password --action insert
–datafile content
(don’t know if that’s possible)
and got
“ERROR: RT requires that MySQL InnoDB table support be enabled.
Remove the ‘skip-innodb’ line from your my.cnf file, restart MySQL, and try
again.”
However, since anything else worked fine, I wonder if that really is the
problem. I’m pretty sure the upgrade-script changed the database correctly,
I see all kinds of new fields within the tables.

Can you send me the output of the SQL command:
select Name, Description from Attributes where ObjectType =
‘RT::System’;

It was my fault. I didn’t follow the instructions in UPGRADE.mysql
which was preventing:
/opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --action insert --datadir etc/upgrade/3.7.82
from running correctly and creating the necessary search. All set now.
My users are thrilled with 3.8 (and I haven’t even shown them bookmarks
yet, that’ll be tomorrow). Thanks for all your hard work!

The whole thing was my mistake. First of all, our RT didn’t run on InnoDB,
which I didn’t know since I didn’t set it up originally. I fixed that by
enabling InnoDB and converting the tables. Then I updated DBD::mysql which
was an old version. After that, everything pretty much went as described.

I’m having the same problem, after upgrading from 3.6.6 to 3.8.0. I’m
now running 3.8.1rc1. See below for the requested query.

That pretty clearly shows that the database side of upgrades didn’t
happen.> 2008/7/16 Jesse Vincent jesse@bestpractical.com

Strange. I ran rt-setup-database as instructed. Regardless, I ran the
content for each version needed, and the bookmarks section shows up
now.
Thanks guys!
