Servicedesk Plus Migration (Mysql)
We are migrating an old installation of Servicedesk Plus from an old physical server to a shiny new virtual server. The current installation is using a mysql database. I have updated the old build to 8127. It seems to be working fine. My issue is that on the new server, when installing servicedesk, it does not appear to be installing mysql. I have set the database to be mysql, but each time I go to save, it returns the error: "Unable to connect to any hosts due to exception: java.net.ConnectException:

Custom Status Field vs Built in Fields and Views not recognizing the Custom Fields
Some background, for the Status field in the Request templates I have the following items: -Part on order -Requested further information from user -Waiting on confirmation from user -Waiting on user call back While I like that ME allows you to customize the Status field, it doesn't correlate over to other areas of Manage Engine. For example, the default Views won't recognize any tickets that are in these custom Status fields, all Views only recognize the built in Status Fields, i.e., OPEN, ON HOLD,
Empty Error Message when submitting a request
When a user submits a request based on a specific template, it always fails with a blank error message (Only the red X shows up to the right of where the error would normally appear). Nothing shows up in the System Logs so I have no idea where the culprit might lie. I've gone through the template four or five times searching for anything unusual or incorrect but cannot find anything odd about it. Here is a screenshot of the 'blank error'. This happens immediately after the user clicks on 'submit

Business Rules - there are 2 locations to make these changes at. Which one is which?
OK so It seems that the site will not allow me to attach my 101KB word doc to show pics.......O'well, just another flaw..... Hello O'masters of MangeEngine...... I have come to an impasse, I have found 2 different places to set business rules at. the first one was under the Organizational Details>Business Rules. The second was hidden, (you tricky boys and girls) in the Help Desk>Service Catalog>Manage>Business Rules. You can see my confusion, so I have made rules in both places that mimic each other.

Users receiving Windows credentials prompt - SSO not working because of it.
I have a new implementation of ServiceDesk Plus standard (ver. 9.1, build 9112) that is presenting a bit of a show stopper for me.

Tickets in SD+ are getting merged, how to identify them as a separate request?
We are using 2 instances of SD+ for different departments (Dept A and Dept B), when Dept A creates a ticket and assigns it to Dept B, an email to shot to Dept B with the ticket creation details. This email creates a ticket in the SD+ of Dept B. As the auto response details are in both the SD+'s, tickets are getting created in a looped fashion.. How can we avoid this?
SDP 9.1 incorrectly detects IE11 as IE7/8
Hello, After migrating to SDP 9.1 the following message appeared: This is because we use IE11 in "Enterprise Mode", which kind of emulates IE7/IE8 for a better compatibility. See https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn640687.aspx for more information. If we do not use this Enterprise Mode for IE11, we encounter issues when using SDP. Please fix the erroneous warning message (SDP should detect IE11, not IE8) or finally ensure compatibility with IE11, which was released 2 years ago! Best regards,

URL and alias causing issues in SDP
Folks, Early on in our support process we named our server MEDS01. Then, we had an alias called helpdesk. We wanted to change this to servicedesk and realized that the pass-through authentication had never worked with the alias in the first place. Now, we can get pass-thru authentication to work using the server name http://MEDS01, but we can with the alias. Unfortunately, we now have links that sometimes go out as the alias and sometimes as the servername. The alias always fails. We can
Bug - editing notes with content in <tags> removes ALL content within the tags
Hi, We have Service Desk Plus v9 build 9040, and make extensive use of the Note feature for internal Technician discussion. (usually extracts from our own log files) If you create a Note with content in < > tags (which comes from our own logs), and save it - it's fine. If you then try to edit the same Note - all of the content within the < > tags disappears completely. See the attached image as an example. Please advise, as this is a reasonably significant flaw in the system.
