Hi all,

I'm moving our help desk to a new server in preparation for updating.

getting the following error when I try to connect

include(/var/www/clients/client11/web30/web/support/__swift/thirdparty/dwoo/plugins/builtin/blocks/topLevelBlock.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory (./__swift/thirdparty/dwoo/Dwoo/Loader.php:102)

The Client number is and web number is incorrect ( thats the old server location )

Any idea where its getting that from ?

Will I need to run the setup/upgrade again ?

Can't open Kayako after moving to CentOS7 Nginx

Hi all,

We've been having speed issues on our current setup (CentOS 6.7, Apache 2.2.15, PHP 5.5.32, MySQL v5.1.73) and I was having issues installing Xcache (I believe due to the version of PHP or more the repository it was from) so I was building a new virtual server to save downtime.

Rather than going with the same setup I had before I decided to go with the following:
CentOS 7.2.1511 (Core)
nginx 1.6.3
PHP 5.4.16 - Zend Engine v2.4.0 with XCache v3.1.1
MariaDB 5.5.41-1

I've tested my PHP...

Kayako tweaks for improved performance

Hello Everyone,

as i didn't find a proper thread or document around on how to tweak kayako database to perform fast full text searches while using innodb, i would like to post our configuration changes (they were default) which allowed us to improve search speed from 120-150 seconds to 3-15 seconds.

Here are the lines we changed from default:

[mysqld]

max_connections = 300
event_scheduler=ON
performance_schema

thread_cache_size=4

innodb_buffer_pool_size=10G...

Hi everyone. we are currently deploying kayako in a school based enviroment. one of the challenges we are facing at the moment is logging student issues. Basically students come to a helpdesk physically and log their jobs.

Each time this happens, we have to manually create / add the user in. this is very time consuming. what we would love to be able to do is a csv import of all staff and students into kayako. And be able to update the list as new students and staff come and go.

In terms...

Integrate Kayako and site

Hello!

We have a form for registration tickets on our website. How could we integrate our form and Kayako? For example, form's field "login" = customfield 'login' in Kayako. Is it possible? Presently we get information from form's fields how text in ticket's discription. But it will be very cool to optimise this and fill up customfield automatically.

Sorry for my grammatical mistakes.:oops:

Hi Chaps,

After updating our helpdesk to the latest version ALL faults are being assigned to the user who created it.

Any ideas how to stop this ?

We tried to upgrade from Kayako 4.71 to 4.73.3 and found that with the introduction of FULLTEXT search in Kayako 4.72 onwards a MySQL bug (which seems to affect all versions of MySQL and will only be fixed in MySQL 5.6.31 and 5.7.13 - http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=81387&thanks=2&notify=67) results in a crash of the MySQL server if your swtickets or swticketposts table contains more than 1m records.

There is no workaround for this other than waiting for a MySQL upgrade. Despite...

I am trying to configure a dev environment so I can test upgrades and other operations before pushing it to my production site and nail down disaster recovery procedure to get it up and going quick.

I have done set this dev site up in the past and have had no issues.

I've change the "general_producturl" to reflect the IP I'm using for the dev server (which is also in my license). However on the staff login page it still makes the url be the production url. If I change it using the browser...

Hi guys, I am running Kayako Fusion 4.71.1 on Windows 2008 R2 server, PHP 5.6.22, and MySQL 5.1.53 running on the same box. I want to upgrade Kayako Fusion to version 4.73.3 and I am afraid that it will run into the compatibility issue with MySQL 5.1.53. First thing I thought about upgrading MySQL 5.1.53 to 5.7.12 before upgrading Kayako. Is it the right approach? What would be a good recommendation on best practice and upgrade path for MySQL without breaking Kayako? I appreciate any...

Hello all,
We currently use Kayako for our IT Helpdesk to support our internal staff. Currently we use the suggested LDAP php config in order to authenticate both staff and user roles. What we're looking to do is also expose our helpdesk to our customer base for Customer Support and would like to use the standard Kayako registration for those users. Has anyone had any experience with this?

Would you suggest running a separate Kayako instance? and would that limit us from transferring...

Hi All,

I am trying to setup SLA Plan that change according to Ticket Status. There are few status in the helpdesk, Only "Open" status will have "reply due" and other status will then have different resolution time.

I have setup the SLA Plan with specific criteria, however, it only pickup one SLA Plan only. Switching between statuses doesn't seems to match the criteria. I have the default SLA turn off.

May I know how this Criteria filter being applied?
