Description Joel Uckelman 2014-02-27 20:43:09 UTC

Description of problem:

Bugzilla writes files for dependency graphs to /var/lib/bugzilla/data/webdot, but there's nothing in /etc/httpd/conf.d/bugzilla.conf which makes that directory accessible, and no note in /usr/share/doc/bugzilla/README.fedora about needing to add that to make it so.

The fact that the URLs show up starting with "/var/lib/bugzilla/data/webdot" in the pages generated by showdependencygraph.cgi make this a rather confusing problem to troubleshoot in the first place, so at least a note someplace would be helpful.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

bugzilla-4.2.7-3.fc20.noarch

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set bugzilla to use /usr/bin/dot to generate dependency graphs.
2. Follow the "graph" link from a bug.

Actual results:

From /var/log/httpd/error_log:

[Thu Feb 27 21:24:58.051790 2014] [authz_core:error] [pid 9812] [client 46.5.0.1
78:40506] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /var/lib/bugzilla/data
/webdot/sY2TsNhW6A.png, referer: http://www.vassalengine.org/tracker/showdepende
ncygraph.cgi?id=10893

Expected results:

Graph should load in the browser.

Additional info:

I added this to /etc/httpd/conf.d/bugzilla.conf:

<Directory /var/lib/bugzilla/data/webdot>
Require all granted
</Directory>

That was sufficient to make it work. Additionally, the /var/lib/bugzilla/data/webdot/.htaccess should have "<FilesMatch \.(png|map)$>" instead of just "<FilesMatch \.png$>", since the *.map files are needed for providing the hyperlinks in the dependency graphs.

You're right. I've fixed this in rawhide. I need to test this and I'll backport the fix soon (along with an update to 4.4.7, by the looks of it).

Indeed. A while back, I set out to fix this (by making the url match what you would get by installing bugzilla from the tarball) and it got lost in the haystack of things I need to do.

Added.

The webdot directory and everything it contains is created by Bugzilla when you run the checksetup.pl program. Have you filed a bug in Mozilla's bugzilla instance about this?
