Rt2-to-rt3 deletes the root user

How Do we recreate the root user on rt3 which gets deleted by the
rt2-to-rt3 conversion script.

Does rt 3.0.4 works with postgresql 7.3.x ?
i was forced to use Pgsql 7.2.x with Rt 2.0.x
i hope it works this time.

You didn’t have a “root” superuser in your RT2 instance? Just use your
existing RT2 superuser to create a new ‘root’ account.

Hmmm ,

rt2-to-rt3 is then providing a golden chance for the MySQL + RT 2.0.x
usersto migrate to PgSQL 7.3.3/7.4dev + RT 3.0.4 , becoz the export - import
code is cooly DB independent :slight_smile:

changing DBs within RT 2.0.x or 3.0.x is not that easy .

Yep !
{
‘Comments’ => ‘SuperUser’,
‘Privileged’ => ‘1’,
‘RealName’ => ‘Root’,
‘EmailAddress’ => ‘mallah_rajesh@yahoo.com’,
‘Creator’ => ‘1’,
‘Gecos’ => ‘root’,
‘Signature’ => ‘Root.’,
‘LastUpdatedBy’ => ‘3’,
‘Password’ => ‘kqL1xZtDh2SL.’,
‘Created’ => ‘2001-11-20 13:49:46+00’,
‘id’ => ‘3’,
‘LastUpdated’ => ‘2002-12-02 08:27:53+00’,
‘Name’ => ‘root’
},

Just use your

existing RT2 superuser to create a new ‘root’ account.

there is not root user in users table in the rt3 database.

in dumpfile-to-rt-3.0

if ($import_users) {
print “Importing users\n”;
my $users = $VAR1->{‘User’};
$RT::Handle->SimpleQuery(“DELETE FROM Users where Name=‘root’”);

foreach my $user ( @{$users} ) {
  print "u";
    encode_hashref($user);
    import_user($user);
}
    print "\n";

}

you might want to make sure you change that password now.

                    'id' => '3',
                    'Name' => 'root'
               },

in dumpfile-to-rt-3.0

That removes it from your RT3 database before importing your RT2
database. If you really don’t have a root user any more, then your
upgrade may have failed.

Just remember to set the sequences after the import (see my message to the
list about 2-3 months ago).

Jesse,
Any chance of the script(s) being updated soon for that for Pg?

Hmmm… Thats scary,

Please tell me what am i supposed to do then?

i redescribe the situation:

existing version: 2.0.15 user root exists which some non trivial password.

rt2-to-dumpfile dumps the metadata and tickets (27000 of them)

dumpfile-to-rt3 code is not restoring the ‘root’ user and looks
like explicity deleting it. [ is it really so ? ]

You might want to look through the database or turn on logging during an
import to see if you can detect a point at which it’s failing to insert
your RT2 root user.

dumpfile-to-rt3 code is not restoring the ‘root’ user and looks
like explicity deleting it. [ is it really so ? ]

Again, it’s deleting the automatically created RT3 root user before
importing your RT2 database. You might want to consider instrumenting
the import tool to see what it’s doing.
