Description

Hello, While using email2trac

ve been running a email2trac plugin for a while, and this is a first time I'm having trouble with trac not being able to decoded the attachment properly.

One of the users is using 3rd party web application to send an attachment. In trac it shows up as None-1 (236.7kb), but if I cc myself on the email "thunderbird" opens it without any problems. When I open the none-1 it looks like text/binary version of a pdf.

Here is a part of the email from thunderbird. Is anybody familiar with email content types to tell me what could be wrong with it? Is this a email2trac issue or formatting issue on the person that sends it. Note that if I forward the same email using Thunderbird it attaches just fine.:

And in trac the "comapnyapp.pdf" is called none-1 and when opened it shows:

original header file that does not work.

header files from Thunderbird after I forward the email to truck from Thunderbird. This will be encoded correctly.

Content-Type: multipart/mixed;

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

Which email2trac version do you use?

comment:4 Changed 11 years ago by szybalski@…

Debian Old Stable email2trac Version: 1.6.0-4

We have about 679,023 tickets since we started. We are planning on upgrading to newer version "debian stable" which I guess has a new package name "trac-email2trac"? It will be some time before we upgrade so I was hoping to identify what is the problem with this and either patch the code myself if its few lines, or notify the 3rd party to send correct encoding if we know that is where the problem is at.

  • Version changed from 2.6.2 to 1.6.0

Lucas,

That are a lot of tickets!

A lot has been changed. The current version is 2.6.2 and i just tested it on debian squeeze and trac 0,12. You could download the source and build the package. There is a debian setup delivered with it. The debian setup is for postfix. If use other setup adjust it to your needs.

Just be sure to save the old email2trac debian package. I usually set-up a test enviroment in /usr/local:

  • ./configure; make install

And put the config:

  • /usr/local/etc

Now setup an test email address that uses the new binary.

Thank you. Before I did all that I've upgraded our production server to latest "stable" version in Debian over the weekend. This has resolved my problem and we are back in business. :) Thank you for all the work on this plugin. Its amazing and we are starting to use it more and more. 699,691 tickets in trac and going strong.

You can close this ticket.Version: 1.6.0-4 fixed the issue.
