Okay, I been posted a lot of questions, and no solutions, so sorry. But still, I put in ttraq on my tomcat server. It deployed beautifully, however, during setup it gave the option for mysql. But then it wanted the driver location for it. Didnt know it, so i installed the default databse, which isnt bad. But I hear from everyone, MySQL is the best way to go, was wondering if anyone knew about it, or could test it out on one of their systems to see what I was talking about. Also, Im not able to email the project managers from within the program. Don't have any errors or anything, just no emails come up in webmail. Not sure, just would like this program to work to its full capacity.

This is not really a HelpDesk.
Many of your questions seem to relate to system specific setup issues that are application related. These questions are typically better answered by other users at the particular web site or forum setup for those applications.
If you want hands on support you should engage the services of a paid sme support person, many of them traverse these forums.
If you want to "do it yourself", then the best approach is to have a test system.
You are using a beta release for which many contribs have not been developed or proven to work, and you are using that in a production environment. That's your choice and it's OK with me, but you will need to improve your skills if that's what you choose to do.
Remember the various log files usually provide valuable clues as to why something is not working, even in the absence of " error messages".

Sorry... Im kinda new here, but thanks for some of the ground rules. I never really posted to forums before. My only question is that the web says it uses port 25, and that this may pose a problem. Also, didn't know if i get that MySQL driver from SME or TTraq. Apologies though> I see you post answers often on here, so many kudos to you :-D

mysql is already installed on sme and typically when an application asks for it's location it would be
localhost
or
127.0.0.1
You would also typically create a database and user so your application can access it (the data). Do an advanced search (click the magnifying glass) of these forums on mysql as there are many examples.Also see the mysql FAQ.
There is also web app generic setup guides, please read the Howto section and you'll find them.

Thanx. 8-)

How does this compare to the oats contrib? Since you are using 8 beta, you could try oats and help verify it's operation.

It works. Man does it work. Very comparable to TTraq. The only thing is, this one actually emails, and uses MySQL database. Now, anyway to change the look and feel of it? Im no pro, so if u say no its too hard, I completely understand. I just like slapping my logo on everything!

Thanx a lot, this is much easier to move around and use. Trying to figure out the pdf part. I installed it, but dont see an export tab or anything

Alright, it almost worked perfectly. When you change the config files to pdf
$OUT .= "\$default->print_format = \'pdf\'\; \n"; it won't even show the email timecard to supervisor button, and the page is still in HTML format. But on text, and HTML it is available to send out. So, it almost worked. Any ideas. I have ghostscript installed like the wiki said, then I did yum --enablerepo=dag install ghostscript
as well as the same thing for ImageMagic, but it was yum --enablerepo=dag install ImageMagick . They all said the contribs were up to date, nothing else to install.And HTML2PS, everything is installed. I even followed the path that the config was pointing to, /usr/bin/html2ps, and change permission on file because thats where most of my problems fall, but that didn't work. Also, the update of MOTD does not update. It says it should be visible on login screen, but after typing in the box and hitting "update MOTD" it erases everything back to default. And yes, I did expand-template /opt/oats/config/defaults.php
Everytime I made a change.
