bug-tracking

Why would anyone create an issue via commit log?

I was studying SCM/Bug tracker integration when I found that it is not only possible to close and modify issues from the commit log, but it is also possible to create them. But since the commit log is for code changes, I don't see why anyone would modify the code to create an issue. Please cite one scenario where this is justifiable. ...

where can I submit a bug report concerning the FOSS Java Sound implementation org.classpath.icedtea.pulseaudio.PulseAudioSourceDataLine?

I'm pretty confused by the distinctions between Sun's OpenJDK, IcedTea, GNU CLASSPATH, and the version of OpenJDK distributed by Linux distros. So to keep it simple, where can I submit upstream bug reports on org.classpath.icedtea.pulseaudio.PulseAudioSourceDataLine? Thanks for your help. ...

Looking for hierarchic feature/task tracker system

What would be a good Coldfusion-based bug tracking software?

What I am looking for is a tool that easily or automatically sends coldfusion error messages to their system. Then I can use the web-based interface, to manage priorities, track who fixed what and so forth.

Which Issue Tracker is suitable for a VPS?

Hi, I'm hosting my application on a Linode, but is hosted on a Tomcat instance, which uses most of the RAM. I also have Apache installed, so I can front Mercurial, and I believe a bug tracker is a must, however I can't decide on which is best, given scarce resources. JIRA seems to be out of the question, so I've been deciding on either ...

No tool is perfect, and I'm about to start several long-term projects using Trac, and wanted a heads up of the kinds of problems I may or may not experience with it. In other words, Trac meets my needs in the short term, and I've already made the decision to use it, but I want to know what to expect down the road. I am not looking for: ...

If you need only version control and bug/issue tracking, is TFS too much?

We are a small Microsoft shop with 4 developers. We like the idea to have everything integrated and under the same SQL database but not to deal with too many features or a complexity we don't need. The other option would be to use two distinct third party tools. We also wonder if VS2010 version control and bug/issue tracking capabilitie...

Is there any way to configure trac to use a custom mailing tool?

Is there any way trac could be made to work with a custom mail tool? For example, imagine a command line script which takes all of it's arguments from it's command line arguments: script -s sender -t title -to [email protected] -b body The tool is configured to use COM for email sending, and I think it would be impossible to define ...

Is there a better alternative to preprocessor redirection for runtime tracking of an external API?

OK, I have sort of a tricky problem I'm attempting to solve. First of all, an overview: I have an external API not under my control, which is used by a massive amount of legacy code. There are several classes of bugs in the legacy code that could potentially be detected at run-time, if only the external API was written to track its ow...

Proper Trac Setup of Permissions

I have installed Trac on my webserver. First of all it seems in secure because it immediately exposed my repository to the world. How does Trac access my repository without providing it with some credentials to access the authz protected repository?
