From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20031020 Description of problem: After the RedHat bugzilla updates, the "Open Bugzilla Entry Form" shows up as an empty page if the initial comment (description) is too long. Earlier versions of the RH bugzilla would give a warning/error saying that the argument was too long. The new version silently fails. This is highly irritating when we're opening up mirror copies of our bugs into the RH bugzilla (we mirror bug contents between the IBM LTC bugzilla and RH bugzilla). Please resolve this as soon as possible. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See above Actual Results: Blank open Bugzilla Entry form (or error message) appears Expected Results: It should be possible to open a bugzilla entry with arbitrarily long comments ; additional comments added later can be very long without any problems. Additional info:
Red Hat's current Bugzilla version is 2.18. I am moving all older open bugs to this version. Any bugs against the older versions will need to be verified that they are still bugs. This will help me also to sort them better.
Red Hat Bugzilla is now using version 3.2 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 3.2.
