Re: Need Python alternative to Request-Tracker help desk software

I've been tasked with either implementing Request-Tracker to upgrade our help desk issue tracking system or finding a Python equivalent (both in terms of functionality and wide spread use). Request-Tracker uses Apache and MySQL, which would also be appropriate to Python.

I would prefer to go the Python route, especially since Request-Tracker is written in Perl (which I don't know).

My initial attempts with Google were not useful due to the general nature of the keywords.

Are there any suggestions.
You should have a look at Trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/) and
roundup (http://roundup.sourceforge.net/).

Both are written in Python and provide excellent issue tracking.
They differ a bit in design and approach to issue tracking, so
you will likely need to investigate a bit further before you decide.

Both are easy to extend and adapt to whatever needs you have.

Greetings, I am new to python and wish to embed python in an 3D graphics application to provide application automation. The high level goal is to be able to drive my app from a script for batch job like behavior rather than via the GUI (ie. I would like to run a script and see those changes reflected in the GUI as if the user had clicked buttons, etc.) The application is written in C++ and uses QT for the GUI. I have read the python...

This question may be simple, so please bear with me. We have a mainly ASP VBScript website running on IIS.

Currently, when submitting the form the user is redirected to the CGI file's embedded html page. I would like for the user to submit the form and be brought back to the originating VB/ASP page with the...

I don't know if this is a fair comparison or not. Any comments appreciated. - Python is more readable, and more general purpose - PHP has awful backward compatibility - PHP has a lower barrier to entry - Most inexpensive web-hosters support PHP, but not Python - PHP has far more pre-writen scripts available - Newer versions of mod_python require Apache 2.0, which few hosters have

Python provides a quite good and feature-complete exception handling mechanism for its programmers. This is good. But exceptions, like any complex construct, are difficult to use correctly, especially as programs get large. Most of the issues of exceptions are not specific to Python, but I sometimes feel that Python makes them more acute because of the free-n- easy manner in which it employs exceptions for its own uses and allows users...
