This release contains several new features as well as a number
of code quality improvements, bug fixes and new configuration
options.
In particular, we'd like to thank Aaron Sigel for security
auditing work which led directly to a number of security
improvements in this release.
Noticeable features and improvements in this release include:
* Improvements to default Chart fonts and colors
New Hourly grouping options
Optional support for handling chart timezones in your database
* You can now interleave global and queue level custom fields
for display
* RSS feeds are available using an auth string rather than
credentials RT's RSS feeds should now work in significantly
more feed readers
* RTAddressRegexp improvements to prevent users from adding
an RT address as a watcher on a ticket
* Admin UI improvements, including the new
AdminSearchResultFormat config option
* Your current password is now required to change a password
via RT's web interface
* New web handler: bin/fastcgi_server which allows you to run
RT as a FastCGI external server
* Refactored Elements/ShowUser so it's easer to add custom
formats.
* Printed views of RT tickets should now be somewhat more
visually pleasing
* RT now uses less memory when building the First/Prev/Next/Last
links for the result of a big ticket search
* New config options: AttachmentUnits, AlwaysDownloadAttachments,
DefaultMailPrecedence, DefaultErrorMailPrecedence,
MessageBoxIncludeSignature*, UseOriginatorHeader and
LogoutRefresh. See RT_Config.pm for more information on these
and other configuration options.

  1. Is there a windows installer available for this version? I’m having trouble finding anything! Thanks, looks great otherwise 🙂

    We want RPMs!

  3. i tried finding someplace to submit bug reports, but i couldn’t. so anyway, i’m using 3.8.4 and i don’t know if this has been fixed, but the error message for the advanced search capitalizes the fields it says it doesn’t recognize.for example, if i search for ‘content like’ instead of ‘Content like’, i get the following message:
    Unknown field: Content
    which is clearly wrong. again, sorry about the wrong venue here, but googling for the bug tracker for a bug tracker is not very helpful.

  4. I love RT.. well “loved” RT – until my 32 Bit Core Duo iMac died, and I replaced it with a 64 bit iMac Core 2 Duo – Did a “Time Machine” full restore.. After that – thing is so broke, I can’t even describe all the problems I have had trying to re-install, install, upgrade…. You name it, I did it. Even starting from scratch – I can’t get make testdeps to complete, and make fixdeps dies in the same place asking for packages that went obsolete before Leopard..After about 48 hours of updating perl with macports, and/or cpan… You win! RT is dead to me. It’s gone.. It won’t compile – Apache seems to be ok… It’s the RT backend!
    I hope someone out there might know what the heck is up with testdeps and fixdeps.. I am tired of dropping RT3 and rt_user in mySQL and starting over only to get the same crappy result. PS: I have the latest and greatest XCode Development libraries.. Cuz I are one!

  5. @Ricker – you want to mail rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com – It’s a much better place to get help than blog comments.

  6. Thanks Jesse,, Sorry Group!
