Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 97222
Bugzilla misplaces newly entered bug texts
Last modified: 2013-06-23 23:10:25 EDT
Description of problem: While entering a new bug via new slow multi-posting way, and finally having reached the final review page.. I modified the text for a while, and finally submitted it as: bug 97214. Somewhere along the way (twice, I think), javascripts did bugger me that some field was left empty, and didn't accept progress at that point. In the mean time, mr. RDieter had entered another bug, and that apparently got same bug-number. Then he continued by adding comments on it.. Looking for other bugs with near-by numbers does show that my bug begun to be entered as bug# 97213, but somehow that content didn't go in properly ? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Redhat's bugzilla How reproducible: No idea, possibly could.. Steps to Reproduce: MAYBE: 1. using javascript forms don't fill anything at first into "steps to reproduce" field, try to submit 2. fix complained thing, and submit again 3. wait a longer while (or enter another bug at another browser session) and then press final commit. Actual results: Bug primary content went into wrong place, bug submitter is original, but text is mine. Expected results: like bug 97216 Additional info: mere guesses, see above.
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.
The guided bug entry page has been revamped and this should no longer happen. Open a new bug against the guided entry page if this or other problems still occur.
