After we moved our RT from a dedicated server to a VM and also upgraded our Debian OS we had some trouble with apache eating up all the memory. I decided to install Munin to monitor the server and to see if the performance tweaks take effect. I also wanted to monitor the RT ticket [...]

Today we moved one of our RT from a 4 years old Fujitsu-Siemens RX300 S3 with 2x Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.20GHz and 2GB RAM to our VMware ESX Cluster. The VM is configured with 4 CPU and 4GB RAM. With this move we also upgraded the OS from Debian lenny to squeeze. The actual copy [...]

I just updated the Request Tracker Extensions RT-Extension-Gravatar and RT-Extension-HistoryFilter to make sure that they will work fine with RT 4.0. The updated versions are available from github and CPAN.

I pushed version 0.02 of RT-Extension-ReminderImproved to GitHub. It includes some changes and bug fix from BestPractical to the reminder function in RT 4.0. As you could read before, the updates to the reminder function in this extension will be included in the upcoming RT 4.0 release.

I just created an PAUSE (Perl Authors Upload Server) account and uploaded my RT extensions hosted at GitHub. From now you will find my work also at CPAN: http://search.cpan.org/~cloos/.

If you want to see the full history you have to use the history link in the top menu. You can find the extension at Github: http://github.com/cloos/rt-extension-briefhistory.

I just created my first Request Tracker extension. It will put some nice Gravatar images of your requestors and users into your RT. You can find it at GitHub: http://github.com/cloos/rt-extension-gravatar.

The System Configuration Page (Configuration=>Tools=>System Configuration) didn’t look really nice. As I like fancy layouts, I put some of the information into tables with the default RT layout (see the code here). With this changes I inspired Jesse Vincent to make the page look even more beautiful by putting the information into nice boxes (see [...]

Just played a little bit with the request tracker shredder that is new in Version 3.8 and found a bug. I want to delete a user but the shredder also deleted an ticket. Lets see what the developer say to that.
