Hello everyone.

Currently we are quite stuck on enabling ticket escalations based on
SLA. The problem is that none of the escalation we tried seems to work:
either the crontool throws errors or does basically nothing.

What we did so far:
- Upgrade to 4.4.1 and made sure all database migrations pass
- Defined a basic ServiceAgreements section (code found later in this email)
- Used an existing, working queue to enable "SLA Enabled"
- Set the default value for "Final Priority" of this queue to "99"
- Set the default value for "Priority" of this queue to "0"
- Created some test tickets (via web and via email) in this queue.
"Starts" and "Due" are correctly set according to the defined
ServiceAgreements.

The queue we currently use for our tests is called "Test-Queue", and
there is currently one ticket in it having "Starts" and "Due" set, the
ID is #78735.

I would appreciate if anyone has ideas on what is wrong with our setup,
or could provide a working configuration!


Here are our ServiceAgreements (just for testing so far) and some of the
rt-crontool calls and their returns we tried so far:

Set( %ServiceAgreements, (
Default => 'standard',
Levels => {
'standard' => {
Starts => { RealMinutes => 0 },
Resolve => { RealMinutes => 10 },
},
'urgent' => {
Starts => { RealMinutes => 0 },
Resolve => { RealMinutes => 5 },
},
},
));

(this one is really strange, as this ticket #11893 was resolved 5 years
ago and in another queue, it should not get found by ActiveTicketsInQueue)
