Description David Lawrence 2009-03-30 21:20:20 UTC

Description of problem:

Currently the error message is:

xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault -32000: 'Can\'t call method "flag_type" on an undefined value at ./extensions/releases/code/webservice.pl line 118.\n'>

Should provide more user friendly message.

Comment 1 David Lawrence 2010-01-15 16:55:14 UTC

Red Hat Bugzilla is now using version 3.4 of the Bugzilla codebase and
therefore this bug will need to be re-verified against the new release. With
the updated code this bug may no longer be relevant or may have been fixed in
the new code. Updating bug version to 3.4.

Comment 2 David Lawrence 2010-08-25 21:43:04 UTC

Red Hat has now upgraded to Bugzilla 3.6 and this bug will now be reassigned to that version. It would be helpful to the Bugzilla Development Team if this bug is verified to still be an issue with the latest version. If it is no longer an issue, then feel free to close, otherwise please comment that it is still a problem and we will try to address the issue as soon as we can.

Thanks
Bugzilla Development Team
