Receiving Error: Need TicketID! when trying to create a new ticket

Post by SaumyaS »

Hi all,

We have installed OTRS 3.2.3 over a system running Windows 7. We use this instance of OTRS to track our IT issues.

A few days back, the article table crashed and our DBA was unable to repair it. He then suggested we retore the previous day's backup instead. The backup was restored successfully, and no tables were marked as crashed in the new restored database.

But now we are facing issues with ticket creation on the portal. Whenever a user tries to raise a new ticket on the portal , they recieve the following error :
Error: Need TicketID!

I have searched the forum for answers to similar issues, but none seem to be working for me. Anybody has any ideas/suggestions as to why this is happening, or any tests I can run, do share.

P.S. I know that we are using really outdated version, but Management decisions. Can't help it. :)

Thanks,
Saumya

Using a hackable and unsecure version which is not maintained for several years is backed by management? Do they know about the risk (which might set the whole company at risk..)

You should check if the cache was deleted and if there are any entries in the logfile. Please also check diskspace
"Production": OTRS™ 8, OTRS™ 7, STORM powered by OTRS
"Testing": ((OTRS Community Edition)) and git Master

Hi Jojo,

You are totally right, but it seems that right now the management doesn't seems to be very keen on migration to Linux and an upgradation, even though I have made them aware of the risks involved.
You should check if the cache was deleted and if there are any entries in the logfile.
The cache was not deleted and the disk space wasn't full either. Then I tried deleting the cache, and rebuilding the config. And that seemed to do the trick.

Many Thanks !!!
