Collectible Card Game Headquarters

Along with our change in Source Code Repository, it's about time to retire the SVN Bug thread.

Our bug tracker is now at

http://cardforge.org/bugz

Use mylin-mantisconnect integration with this URL:
http://cardforge.org/bugz/api/soap/mantisconnect.php

Customizing Mantis to better suit Forge may take some time, anyone brave enough can request admin status, and/or FTP access to the PHP code that runs Mantis.

I'm working on integrating Bug Reporting into Forge, both as a menu item to launch a blank report, as well as in response to an exception error window.

Awesome. This should help a lot.

Will there be an updated script to download the SVN?

also r 10905 Scion of Oona gives shroud to himself.

The README.txt file should be updated to reflect the new bug reporting process, whenever someone is able.

*edit* Will the issues already reported at code.google.com be migrated to the new system?

Jaedayr, I'd like to get at least the open issues from google code migrated over. It's not straight-forward... you need to use Eclipse's Mylin connector for both systems, and clone the issue from one to the other, tweak a couple fields, then submit to the new system. I began a few last night, but it would take a while... I would hope someone else can help do the leg work.

It looks like there's an easier way to migrate the bugs, involving exporting/importing. I'll see if I can get all of them migrated today with it.

Edit: Looks like I might need a plugin installed for this: http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=4220 Although, I might not have enough privileges to do it either.

Now you do.

It looks like that could work. the trick is exporting from google.... the mylin-google connector uses some java libraries google provided. I played with it briefly, but it would've taken a lot of effort to roll my own exporter based on their sample code.

After wrestling with Mantis for an hour or so, the active bugs from google code issue tracker have been imported. For some reason or other, the description decided to not be attached to the csv that was downloaded (from google code), so instead I linked to the old issue via ID.

That's why I had issues... the CSV from google is just meta data.

Using Mylyn, you can clone issues from one task repository to another. But it's a one-at-a-time sorta thing.

How about a little python scripting to pull the report then insert it into the import list?

i just found this topic! the Invasion can begin.

may i have admin status? not ftp status, though. of the {p} languages, i do perl and python, but not php.

is there going to be a separate database, area or flag for user-submitted reports versus ones reported by developers or power users?

what about bug reports that have similar stack traces? i would hope those to be aggregated somehow.

oh, and congratulations to all who were involved in moving all the open issues to mantis!

Edit: formatting changes.

regarding updating the README.txt file, is this the correct text?

Reporting Bugs:

To report a bug with an official beta release, visit the Forge forum topic corresponding to your beta's version number. The forum is at viewforum.php?f=26 . Please check whether your bug has already been reported using the forum's search capability.

To report a bug with a nightly build, with something compiled from the official Forge software repository, or from the leading edge (formerly "SVN Bug Reports"), please do not submit your bugs to the forum. Instead, use the Mantis bug tracker at http://cardforge.org/bugz . Registration may be required.

may i have admin status? not ftp status, though. of the {p} languages, i do perl and python, but not php.

Oh Pish-Posh if I could hack Java from a VB background, you can pick up PHP based on Perl and Python. I'm not crazy about the langauge either... but in small doses I can manage it...

Anyway, you've got admin status, what were you planning to change?

I created a specific user for the built-in bug reports. I'll probably give the user an option to put their own Mantis uid/pwd into the report. I can also give it some other sort of metadata that indicates it came direct from Forge.

It seems I can't edit or create bugs now because of some added Git Rev Required field. What is this field expecting? Because I tried using the 7 digit hex characters and it doesn't like it.

sorry about that. it should be fixed now.
