>1.1. Purpose and Scope of this Guide</A
></H1
><P
> This document was started on September 17, 2000
by Matthew P. Barnson after a great deal of procrastination updating the Bugzilla FAQ,
which I left untouched for nearly half a year.
After numerous complete rewrites and reformatting, it is the document you see today.
</P
><P
> Despite the lack of updates, Bugzilla is simply the best piece of bug-tracking software
the world has ever seen. This document is intended to be the comprehensive guide to
the installation, administration, maintenance, and use of the Bugzilla bug-tracking system.
</P
><P
> This release of the Bugzilla Guide is the <EM
>2.11</EM
> release.
It is so named that it may match the current version of Bugzilla.
The numbering tradition stems from that used for many free software projects,
in which <EM
>even-numbered</EM
> point releases (1.2, 1.14, etc.)
are considered "stable releases", intended for public consumption; on the other
hand, <EM
>odd-numbered</EM
> point releases (1.3, 2.09, etc.)
are considered unstable <EM
>development</EM
> releases intended
for advanced users, systems administrators, developers, and those who enjoy
a lot of pain.
</P
><P
> Newer revisions of the Bugzilla Guide will follow the numbering conventions of
the main-tree Bugzilla releases, available at
<A
HREF="http://www.mozilla.org/bugs/source.html"
TARGET="_top"
>Mozilla.org</A
>, with
the exception that intermediate releases will have a minor revision number
following a period. For instance, if the current version of Bugzilla is 4.2,
the current "stable" version of the Bugzilla guide, in, say, it's fifth revision,
would be numbered "4.2.5". Got it? Good.
</P
><P
> I wrote this in response to the enormous demand for decent Bugzilla documentation.
I have incorporated instructions from the Bugzilla README, Frequently Asked Questions,
Database Schema Document, and various mailing lists to create it.
Chances are, there are glaring errors in this documentation; please contact
<TT
CLASS="EMAIL"
>&#60;<A
HREF="mailto:barnboy@trilobyte.net"

>1.&nbsp;Inline&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;Changes<br>
<br>
Why&nbsp;do&nbsp;I&nbsp;see&nbsp;so&nbsp;many&nbsp;"moving&nbsp;to&nbsp;M5"&nbsp;and&nbsp;"reassigning&nbsp;to&nbsp;blahblah"<br>
messages,&nbsp;and&nbsp;in&nbsp;other&nbsp;circumstances&nbsp;none&nbsp;are&nbsp;entered?&nbsp;&nbsp;Why&nbsp;aren't&nbsp;these<br>
automatically&nbsp;generated?&nbsp;&nbsp;A&nbsp;comment&nbsp;should&nbsp;be&nbsp;only&nbsp;necessary&nbsp;when&nbsp;there<br>
is&nbsp;something&nbsp;to&nbsp;add,&nbsp;and&nbsp;if&nbsp;I'm&nbsp;not&nbsp;interested&nbsp;in&nbsp;this&nbsp;sort&nbsp;of<br>
information,&nbsp;I&nbsp;should&nbsp;be&nbsp;able&nbsp;to&nbsp;hide&nbsp;it.<br>
<br>
At&nbsp;the&nbsp;moment&nbsp;we're&nbsp;in&nbsp;a&nbsp;hybrid&nbsp;world&nbsp;where&nbsp;we&nbsp;don't&nbsp;get&nbsp;everything,&nbsp;but<br>
we&nbsp;can't&nbsp;get&nbsp;rid&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;bug&nbsp;change&nbsp;"messages"&nbsp;either.&nbsp;&nbsp;Furthermore,<br>
"View&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;Activity"&nbsp;requires&nbsp;me&nbsp;to&nbsp;manually&nbsp;cross&nbsp;reference&nbsp;events&nbsp;on<br>
another&nbsp;page,&nbsp;rather&nbsp;than&nbsp;being&nbsp;able&nbsp;to&nbsp;visually&nbsp;see&nbsp;the&nbsp;chronological<br>
order.&nbsp;&nbsp;Shouldn't&nbsp;I&nbsp;be&nbsp;able&nbsp;to&nbsp;see&nbsp;all&nbsp;the&nbsp;information&nbsp;on&nbsp;one&nbsp;page?<br>
<br>
A&nbsp;proposal&nbsp;to&nbsp;allow&nbsp;bugs&nbsp;to&nbsp;be&nbsp;shown&nbsp;either&nbsp;way&nbsp;is&nbsp;at<br>
"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11368".<br>
<br>
2.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hard&nbsp;Wrapping&nbsp;Comments<br>
<br>
One&nbsp;thing&nbsp;that&nbsp;annoys&nbsp;me&nbsp;is&nbsp;the&nbsp;fact&nbsp;that&nbsp;comments&nbsp;are&nbsp;"hard&nbsp;wrapped"&nbsp;to<br>
a&nbsp;certain&nbsp;column&nbsp;width.&nbsp;&nbsp;This&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;mistake&nbsp;Internet&nbsp;Mail&nbsp;and&nbsp;News&nbsp;has<br>
made,&nbsp;unlike&nbsp;every&nbsp;word&nbsp;processor&nbsp;in&nbsp;existence,&nbsp;and&nbsp;as&nbsp;a&nbsp;consequence,<br>
Usenet&nbsp;suffers&nbsp;to&nbsp;this&nbsp;day&nbsp;from&nbsp;bad&nbsp;software.&nbsp;&nbsp;Why&nbsp;has&nbsp;Bugzilla&nbsp;repeated<br>
the&nbsp;problem?<br>
<br>
Hard&nbsp;wrapping&nbsp;to&nbsp;a&nbsp;certain&nbsp;column&nbsp;width&nbsp;is&nbsp;open&nbsp;to&nbsp;abuse&nbsp;(see&nbsp;old<br>
Mozilla&nbsp;browsers&nbsp;that&nbsp;didn't&nbsp;wrap&nbsp;properly,&nbsp;resulting&nbsp;in&nbsp;many&nbsp;ugly&nbsp;bug<br>
reports&nbsp;we&nbsp;have&nbsp;to&nbsp;read&nbsp;to&nbsp;this&nbsp;day),&nbsp;and&nbsp;furthermore&nbsp;doesn't&nbsp;expand&nbsp;to<br>
fill&nbsp;greater&nbsp;screen&nbsp;sizes.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm&nbsp;also&nbsp;under&nbsp;the&nbsp;impression&nbsp;the&nbsp;current<br>
hard&nbsp;wrap&nbsp;uses&nbsp;a&nbsp;non-standard&nbsp;HTML&nbsp;facility.&nbsp;&nbsp;See<br>
"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11901".<br>
<br>
3.&nbsp;REMIND&nbsp;and&nbsp;LATER&nbsp;Are&nbsp;Evil<br>
<br>
I&nbsp;really&nbsp;hate&nbsp;REMIND&nbsp;and&nbsp;LATER.&nbsp;&nbsp;Not&nbsp;because&nbsp;they&nbsp;mean&nbsp;something<br>
won't&nbsp;be&nbsp;implemented,&nbsp;but&nbsp;because&nbsp;they&nbsp;aren't&nbsp;the&nbsp;best&nbsp;solutions.<br>
<br>
Why&nbsp;are&nbsp;they&nbsp;bad?&nbsp;&nbsp;Well,&nbsp;basically&nbsp;because&nbsp;they&nbsp;are&nbsp;not&nbsp;resolved,&nbsp;yet<br>
they&nbsp;are&nbsp;marked&nbsp;as&nbsp;such.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hence&nbsp;queries&nbsp;have&nbsp;to&nbsp;be&nbsp;well&nbsp;crafted&nbsp;to<br>
include&nbsp;them.<br>
<br>
LATER,&nbsp;according&nbsp;to&nbsp;Bugzilla,&nbsp;means&nbsp;it&nbsp;won't&nbsp;be&nbsp;done&nbsp;this&nbsp;release.&nbsp;<br>
There&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;better&nbsp;mechanism&nbsp;of&nbsp;doing&nbsp;this,&nbsp;that&nbsp;is&nbsp;assigning&nbsp;to<br>
nobody@mozilla.org&nbsp;and&nbsp;making&nbsp;the&nbsp;milestone&nbsp;blank.&nbsp;&nbsp;It's&nbsp;more&nbsp;likely&nbsp;to<br>
appear&nbsp;in&nbsp;a&nbsp;casual&nbsp;query,&nbsp;and&nbsp;it&nbsp;doesn't&nbsp;resolve&nbsp;the&nbsp;bug.<br>
<br>
REMIND,&nbsp;according&nbsp;to&nbsp;Bugzilla,&nbsp;means&nbsp;it&nbsp;might&nbsp;still&nbsp;be&nbsp;implemented&nbsp;this<br>
release.&nbsp;&nbsp;Well,&nbsp;why&nbsp;not&nbsp;just&nbsp;move&nbsp;it&nbsp;to&nbsp;a&nbsp;later&nbsp;milestone&nbsp;then?&nbsp;&nbsp;You're<br>
a&nbsp;lot&nbsp;less&nbsp;likely&nbsp;to&nbsp;forget&nbsp;it.&nbsp;&nbsp;If&nbsp;it's&nbsp;really&nbsp;needed,&nbsp;a&nbsp;keyword&nbsp;would<br>
be&nbsp;better.<br>
<br>
Some&nbsp;people&nbsp;can't&nbsp;use&nbsp;blank&nbsp;milestones&nbsp;to&nbsp;mean&nbsp;an&nbsp;untargetted&nbsp;milestone,<br>
since&nbsp;they&nbsp;use&nbsp;this&nbsp;to&nbsp;assess&nbsp;new&nbsp;bugs&nbsp;that&nbsp;have&nbsp;no&nbsp;target.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hence,&nbsp;it<br>
would&nbsp;be&nbsp;nice&nbsp;to&nbsp;distinguish&nbsp;between&nbsp;bugs&nbsp;that&nbsp;have&nbsp;not&nbsp;yet&nbsp;been<br>
considered,&nbsp;and&nbsp;those&nbsp;that&nbsp;really&nbsp;are&nbsp;not&nbsp;assigned&nbsp;to&nbsp;any&nbsp;milestone&nbsp;in<br>
the&nbsp;future&nbsp;(assumedly&nbsp;beyond).<br>
<br>
All&nbsp;this&nbsp;is&nbsp;covered&nbsp;at<br>
"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13534".<br>
<br>
4.&nbsp;Create&nbsp;An&nbsp;Enhancement&nbsp;Field<br>
<br>
Currently&nbsp;enhancement&nbsp;is&nbsp;an&nbsp;option&nbsp;in&nbsp;severity.&nbsp;&nbsp;This&nbsp;means&nbsp;that<br>
important&nbsp;enhancements&nbsp;(like&nbsp;for&nbsp;example,&nbsp;POP3&nbsp;support)&nbsp;are&nbsp;not&nbsp;properly<br>
distinguished&nbsp;as&nbsp;such,&nbsp;because&nbsp;they&nbsp;need&nbsp;a&nbsp;proper&nbsp;severity.&nbsp;&nbsp;This<br>
dilutes&nbsp;the&nbsp;meaning&nbsp;of&nbsp;enhancement.<br>

>Contributed&nbsp;by&nbsp;Eric&nbsp;Hanson:<br>
There&nbsp;are&nbsp;several&nbsp;things,&nbsp;and&nbsp;one&nbsp;trick.&nbsp;&nbsp;There&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;small&nbsp;tiny&nbsp;piece&nbsp;of<br>
documentation&nbsp;I&nbsp;saw&nbsp;once&nbsp;that&nbsp;said&nbsp;something&nbsp;very&nbsp;important.<br>
1)&nbsp;&nbsp;After&nbsp;pretty&nbsp;much&nbsp;any&nbsp;manual&nbsp;working&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;Mysql&nbsp;db,&nbsp;you&nbsp;must<br>
delete&nbsp;a&nbsp;file&nbsp;in&nbsp;the&nbsp;bugzilla&nbsp;directory:&nbsp;data/versioncache<br>
Versioncache&nbsp;basically&nbsp;is&nbsp;a&nbsp;way&nbsp;to&nbsp;speed&nbsp;up&nbsp;bugzilla&nbsp;(from&nbsp;what&nbsp;I<br>
understand).&nbsp;&nbsp;It&nbsp;stores&nbsp;a&nbsp;lot&nbsp;of&nbsp;commonly&nbsp;used&nbsp;information.&nbsp;&nbsp;However,<br>
this&nbsp;file&nbsp;is&nbsp;refreshed&nbsp;every&nbsp;so&nbsp;often&nbsp;(I&nbsp;can't&nbsp;remember&nbsp;the&nbsp;time<br>
interval&nbsp;though).&nbsp;&nbsp;So&nbsp;eventually&nbsp;all&nbsp;changes&nbsp;do&nbsp;propogate&nbsp;out,&nbsp;so&nbsp;you<br>
may&nbsp;see&nbsp;stuff&nbsp;suddenly&nbsp;working.<br>
2)&nbsp;&nbsp;Assuming&nbsp;that&nbsp;failed,&nbsp;you&nbsp;will&nbsp;also&nbsp;have&nbsp;to&nbsp;check&nbsp;something&nbsp;with&nbsp;the<br>
checksetup.pl&nbsp;file.&nbsp;&nbsp;It&nbsp;actually&nbsp;is&nbsp;run&nbsp;twice.&nbsp;&nbsp;The&nbsp;first&nbsp;time&nbsp;it<br>
creates&nbsp;the&nbsp;file:&nbsp;localconfig.&nbsp;&nbsp;You&nbsp;can&nbsp;modify&nbsp;localconfig,&nbsp;(or&nbsp;not&nbsp;if<br>
you&nbsp;are&nbsp;doing&nbsp;bug_status&nbsp;stuff)&nbsp;or&nbsp;you&nbsp;should&nbsp;delete&nbsp;localconfig&nbsp;and<br>
rerun&nbsp;your&nbsp;modified&nbsp;checksetup.pl.&nbsp;&nbsp;Since&nbsp;I&nbsp;don't&nbsp;actually&nbsp;see&nbsp;anything<br>
in&nbsp;localconfig&nbsp;pertaining&nbsp;to&nbsp;bug_status,&nbsp;this&nbsp;point&nbsp;is&nbsp;mainly&nbsp;a&nbsp;FYI.<br>

> Users can query Bugzilla from the command line using
this suite of utilities.
</P
><P
> The query.conf file contains the mapping from options to field
names and comparison types. Quoted option names are "grepped" for, so
it should be easy to edit this file. Comments (#) have no effect; you
must make sure these lines do not contain any quoted "option"
</P
><P
> buglist is a shell script which submits a Bugzilla query and writes the
resulting HTML page to stdout. It supports both short options,
(such as "-Afoo" or "-Rbar") and long options (such as
"--assignedto=foo" or "--reporter=bar"). If the first character
of an option is not "-", it is treated as if it were prefixed
with "--default=".
</P
><P
> The columlist is taken from the COLUMNLIST environment variable.
This is equivalent to the "Change Columns" option when you list
bugs in buglist.cgi. If you have already used Bugzilla, use
<B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>grep COLUMLIST ~/.netscape/cookies</B
> to see
your current COLUMNLIST setting.
</P
><P
> bugs is a simple shell script which calls buglist and extracts
the bug numbers from the output. Adding the prefix
"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_id="
turns the bug list into a working link if any bugs are found.
Counting bugs is easy. Pipe the results through
<B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>sed -e 's/,/ /g' | wc | awk '{printf $2 "\n"}'</B

<br>
1.&nbsp;Bugzilla&nbsp;Crime&nbsp;#1:&nbsp;Marking&nbsp;A&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;Fixed&nbsp;With&nbsp;Unresolved&nbsp;Dependencies<br>
<br>
It&nbsp;can't&nbsp;be&nbsp;marked&nbsp;fixed&nbsp;with&nbsp;unresolved&nbsp;dependencies.&nbsp;&nbsp;Either&nbsp;mark&nbsp;it<br>
INVALID&nbsp;(tracking&nbsp;bugs),&nbsp;fix&nbsp;the&nbsp;dependencies&nbsp;at&nbsp;the&nbsp;same&nbsp;time,&nbsp;or<br>
resolve&nbsp;the&nbsp;blockers.<br>
<br>
See&nbsp;"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24496".<br>
<br>
2.&nbsp;Keyword&nbsp;Restrictions<br>
<br>
Some&nbsp;keywords&nbsp;should&nbsp;only&nbsp;apply&nbsp;in&nbsp;certain&nbsp;circumstances,&nbsp;eg&nbsp;beta1&nbsp;=&#62;<br>

<br>
3.&nbsp;Whine&nbsp;About&nbsp;Old&nbsp;Votes<br>
<br>
Old&nbsp;votes&nbsp;can&nbsp;just&nbsp;sit&nbsp;on&nbsp;resolved&nbsp;bugs.&nbsp;&nbsp;This&nbsp;is&nbsp;problematic&nbsp;with<br>
duplicates&nbsp;especially.&nbsp;&nbsp;Automatic&nbsp;transferral/removal&nbsp;is&nbsp;not<br>
appropriate&nbsp;since&nbsp;bugs&nbsp;can&nbsp;be&nbsp;reopened,&nbsp;but&nbsp;a&nbsp;whining&nbsp;solution&nbsp;might<br>
work.&nbsp;&nbsp;See&nbsp;"http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27553".<br>
<br>
4.&nbsp;Whine&nbsp;And&nbsp;Warn&nbsp;About&nbsp;Milestone&nbsp;Mismatches<br>
<br>
Here's&nbsp;a&nbsp;fun&nbsp;one.&nbsp;&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;X&nbsp;(M17)&nbsp;depends&nbsp;on&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;Y&nbsp;(M15).&nbsp;&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;Y&nbsp;gets&nbsp;moved<br>
out&nbsp;to&nbsp;M19.&nbsp;&nbsp;The&nbsp;notification&nbsp;to&nbsp;the&nbsp;assignee&nbsp;of&nbsp;Bug&nbsp;X&nbsp;gets&nbsp;ignored&nbsp;(of<br>

<br>
Warnings&nbsp;about&nbsp;this&nbsp;when&nbsp;it&nbsp;is&nbsp;detected&nbsp;as&nbsp;well&nbsp;as&nbsp;whining&nbsp;about&nbsp;it&nbsp;in<br>

<br>
Note&nbsp;that&nbsp;this&nbsp;would&nbsp;be&nbsp;less&nbsp;of&nbsp;a&nbsp;problem&nbsp;if&nbsp;we&nbsp;didn't&nbsp;have&nbsp;so&nbsp;many<br>

Great care should be taken both in the installation and usage of this software.
Carefully consider the implications of installing other network services with Bugzilla.

>This License applies to any manual or other work that
contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be
distributed under the terms of this License. The "Document",
below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member of the
public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you".</P
><P
>A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work
containing the Document or a portion of it, either copied
verbatim, or with modifications and/or translated into another
language.</P
><P
>A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter
section of the Document that deals exclusively with the
relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the
Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains
nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject.
(For example, if the Document is in part a textbook of
mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.)
The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with
the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial,
philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
them.</P

>The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections
whose titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections,
in the notice that says that the Document is released under this

>The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that
are listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the
notice that says that the Document is released under this
License.</P

>A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a
machine-readable copy, represented in a format whose specification
is available to the general public, whose contents can be viewed
and edited directly and straightforwardly with generic text
editors or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs
or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, and that
is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic
translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text
formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format
whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage subsequent
modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is not
"Transparent" is called "Opaque".</P
><P
>Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include
plain ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input
format, SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
standard-conforming simple HTML designed for human modification.
Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that
can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML
or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by some word
processors for output purposes only.</P
><P
>The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page
itself, plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly,
the material this License requires to appear in the title page.
For works in formats which do not have any title page as such,
"Title Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of
the work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the
text.</P

>If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more
than 100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts,
you must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and
legibly, all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front
cover, and Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must
also clearly and legibly identify you as the publisher of these
copies. The front cover must present the full title with all
words of the title equally prominent and visible. You may add
other material on the covers in addition. Copying with changes
limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of the
Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim
copying in other respects.</P
><P
>If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to
fit legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
adjacent pages.</P
><P
>If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
numbering more than 100, you must either include a
machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
state in or with each Opaque copy a publicly-accessible
computer-network location containing a complete Transparent copy
of the Document, free of added material, which the general
network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the
latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
location until at least one year after the last time you
distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
retailers) of that edition to the public.</P
><P
>It is requested, but not required, that you contact the
authors of the Document well before redistributing any large
number of copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an
updated version of the Document.</P
