insufficient error reporting

Anonymous — Mon, 16 Oct 2006 18:13:59 -0000

Hi,

I just installed IssueTracker and had some trouble
getting it going. The issue turned out to be
that my database user had insufficient rights to
the IssueTracker database. My bad, but it should
say something in the error logs.

There's a bit of code in includes/classes/dbi.class.php
, function init(). It logs errors in connecting, but
if it connects but can't select the database, the
function returns TRUE and doesn't log anything.

I suggest something like this:

if ($this->link) {
if (!mysql_select_db($this->name,$this->link)) {
$this->logger("Not okay switching to database
$this->name : ".mysql_error($this->link));
return false;
}
return TRUE;
}

Thanks.

search on internal status

Geert Stappers — Tue, 29 Mar 2005 13:35:48 -0000

Version 4.0.4 doesn't allow search on internal status
fields.

In the "Advanced Search" does allow search on
* Group
* Openened By
* Assigned To
* Category
* Product
and Status, but not on Internal Status.

Allow selection of Catagory on new issue create

Michael Hartman — Fri, 10 Dec 2004 15:51:14 -0000

I would like the capability to define a catagory when I
create an issue.

Currently, in order to catorgize the issue, I must edit
it immediately after I submit it to assign a catagory
to it. When I do this, the issue no longer shows up as
"new" in the issues list.

I would rather select the catagory when I am creating
the issue. This way, the issue would still show up in
the "new" column of the issues list.

Thanks.

Michael

Is there a way for me to upload, input, enter all my users at the
same or do I have to manually enter each name and password?

Add field for "fixed version"

Anonymous — Thu, 23 Sep 2004 19:19:50 -0000

It would be really nice to have a "Fixed In Version"
field that can be updated when closing an issue. (It
would need to display on issue lists too if desired.)

Thanks!

Extension of 'Show Closed' function

h3l1x — Thu, 19 Aug 2004 15:13:11 -0000

Ability to designate a date-based limit to the closed tickets shown.
For example, include only the past 3 days of closed tickets. We
have a problem in our shop of re-opening issues that have already
been resolved, and this would allow us to see the recently closed
tickets right there in the queue.

New issue: Required fields configurable

Robin Bowes — Tue, 10 Aug 2004 17:37:47 -0000

When entering an issue I don't always need or want to
associated a product with that issue. I may not know
which product is involved when I create the issue, or
the issue may not be related to a specific product.

I propose adding a configuration setting that makes it
optional to associated a product with each issue.

That would be the quick fix. A better solution would be
to create a web interface from where the group
owner/administrator could select the mandatory fields
for each Group individually.

Helpscreen - should not contain the iconbar with crumbs.

Anonymous — Sat, 10 Jul 2004 21:01:31 -0000

When a crumb is clicked screens are messing up. A user
gets lost in the world of screens.
(just click on a crumb in the helpscreen...

It should only be possible to stay on the helpscreen or
close it.

Oracle Support

Thu, 17 Jun 2004 17:43:39 -0000

I would *love* to see Oracle backend support for Issue
Tracker. Many companies (including the one I work for)
have existing Oracle infrastructure, and would like to
take advantage of this infrastructure in all possible
ways. If Issue Tracker supported Oracle, it may become
even more viable for companies with no existing MySQL
environment.

BTW, I say this because I am evaluating bug tracking
software for my department, and my company uses Oracle
as our standard database backend. The ability to
integrate with Oracle would be a huge selling point to
the higher-ups.
