Installation
- Create a new Unix group called 'rt'
- Edit the top-level Makefile, set RT_ENABLED to 1 and set the RT_DOMAIN, RT_TIMEZONE, and FREESIDE_URL variables.
-
$ make configure-rt
- If your database is not on the local machine you will need to edit /opt/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm and set the DatabaseHost value
-
# make create-rt
- Authentication errors?
- Edit
pg_hba.conf, change "ident sameuser" auth to "trust" for the line starting with "local all all" - Restart Pg
- Revert the change back and restart Pg after this installation step
- Edit
- Authentication errors?
-
make install-rt
- Add webserver configuration: make sure APACHE_CONF is set correctly in the Makefile, then run:
make install-apache
- Restart Apache (httpd) and log into the Freeside web interface using the username and password you created during the first part of the installation.
- Set the ticket_system configuration value to
RT_Internal. (You may also wish to set ticket_system-default_queueid once you have RT configured.)
Bootstrap RT's permissions
- Click on "Ticketing Main" on the Freeside main menu to auto-create an RT login for your username
- From "Billing Main", go to Configuration > Employees > View/Edit employees and add a temporary "root" user. Note: the user name must be "root" (without the quotes).
- Log into your Freeside installation as the "root" user you just created, by closing all of your browser windows, or by using
https://root@yourmachone/freeside/syntax if your browser supports it. - Click on "Ticketing Main" on the Freeside main menu. Go to Configuration > Ticketing > Ticketing Global, and then "User Rights". Grant the "SuperUser" right to your normal RT/Freeside login.
- Go back to the freeside employee list and disable the temporary "root" user.
Futher Reading
- Follow the regular RT documentation to configure RT, setup the mailgate, etc.
