Re: gnats queue sorting question

2009-12-04T22:56:23Z

FYI what we did on our side was sort the queue by timestamp
(see attached patch) so we left the filenames alone for now.

Thanks,
Alex

Re: gnats queue sorting question

2009-12-03T23:37:52Z

Hey, Alex.

I know it's been a long time since you last wrote about this, but I've
cracked open my vim editor and started to poke around again into this
stuff.

I've looked at the maildir specification at
http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html, and believe it to be relatively easy
to implement this as a naming structure. I've chosen to go with:

seconds.MmicrosecondsPpidQdeliveries.hostname

Here's a test example code snippet to generate the unique name. I didn't
research HOST_NAME_MAX and ENAMETOOLONG much past looking at the man
pages for glibc and POSIX. We could probably put this in an autoconf
check.

I began to look at readdir and found that the readdir_r version has some
badness to it.

http://womble.decadentplace.org.uk/readdir_r-advisory.html (2005)

Using scandir sounds like a great idea, and possibly we could find a
version of it lying around for those libraries that don't yet have it,
i.e. POSIX.

The "(int)" casting I did in the printf statement is probably wrong, but
this is a quick hack. (Probably use %lu instead, or something.) Again,
if we use something like this, we could autoconf check for pid_t (should
be there no matter what), time_t and suseconds_t and what do do about
them.

Hostname sizes (potentially 255), and file name sizes (potentially a max
of 255), could obviously collide, so an snprintf() call could be used to
limit to the maximum file length.

I wonder if it's all that necessary to use a temporary directory or not,
but it looks like we're currently using one in queue-pr.c, so keeping
that symantec is probably fine. We could essentially rip out the
asprintf build of the template string and use a normal open() call
rather than the open_temporary_file().

Oh... and by the way... It feels good to hack in C again. :)

queue-pr fails to identify error conditions associated with its invocation of pr-edit

2009-02-08T07:06:06Z

Hi,

I have one requirement to fix and i need some suggestions to solve
this issue listed in the subject
part.

here is the description
===========================================
If queue-pr encounters a legitimate error (such as
a missing required field) and doesn't submit the
pr, queue-pr silently fails.
It should probably email back the submitter with
the message intended for submission along with an
explanation of the failure and discard the message
from the queue directory.
===========================================

Thanks
Abrol,

Karl,

I am actually still alive. I have not had time to look at Gnatsweb in a
long time, though. Life changes, and with that the ability to follow up
this kind of thing.

So I would be very happy if someone would pick up Gnatsweb.

Trouble with install

2008-09-22T13:11:46Z

GNATS Gurus:

I’ve only just been introduced to GNATS by reading articles and information from the WEB about it.

My background is in application programming and analysis and NOT system administration.

I admittedly know very little about what I’m trying to do so I’m following the INSTALL instructions “blindly”.

(I’m just about as ignorant as they come…)

After the execution of the “configure” utility, I am supposed to do a “make all info”. The following are the results of this make.

I’m not altogether sure, but it appears that I have significant problems.

Can anyone offer suggestions?

If you have set it up correctly in the /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/xinetd/*
folder as an inetd service, you should be able to telnet to the support
port 1529.

Re: Query Problems

2008-07-08T08:09:00Z

The spaces issue with querying was recently (within the last couple
months) and fixed by another community member. I believe I checked in
the fix in CVS, the pre-4.2 version of the software. I think it's
probably time to just cut a release of 4.2 and get it out the door. You
could probably backport the change easily. I, unfortunately, have had
little leisure time to dedicate to anything other than work, my family,
and a bathroom project. If anyone wants to stop up and help co-maintain
this project, please speak up! ;-)

Re: Query Problems

2008-07-04T03:41:08Z

It looks so that someone have problems with spaces...eg

query-pr --expr '(Category="XXX") & (builtinfield:State[type]!="closed")'
--> Cannot parse `
query-pr --expr '(Category="XXX")&(builtinfield:State[type]!="closed")'
--> Works fine

As workaround I fixed the following lines in gnatsweb.pl

#$expr = appendexpr ('(! builtinfield:State[type]="closed")', '&', $expr);
$expr = appendexpr ('(!builtinfield:State[type]="closed")', '&', $expr);

# return "($lhs) $op ($rhs)";
return "($lhs)$op($rhs)";

Hope this helps somebody,

Query Problems

2008-07-03T06:04:31Z

Hello,

we have Gnatsweb v4.00, Gnats v4.1.0 under OpenSuse 10.3 installed. Everything went fine (create, edit, view), except the query function. Searching with one condition is fine, but using more than one condition, eg searching all open bugs in the topic sysadmin gives me the following (shortened) debug output:

###################START-OUTPUT##########################
client_cmd:

rset

server_reply: 210 Reset state...reloaded the index.

client_cmd:

expr ((! builtinfield:State[type]="closed")) & (Category~"^SysAdmin$")

server_reply: 415 Invalid expression.
###################END-OUTPUT##########################

Here is another example searching for all confidential bugs in sysadmin threads in this line:
expr (Category~"^SysAdmin$") & (Confidential~"^yes$")

Any help is welcome!

Thanks in advance,

René

Help!

2008-04-07T20:34:00Z

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to confirm some functions before using GNAT for our bug tracking system. Is it possible to export all defect information to a text file/excel spread sheet to generate some reports like nDAR or Backlog severity?

Thanks for your advice and help,

Email Formatted PR Text to Someone?

2008-02-14T16:12:21Z

Anyone have a way to email the complete, formatted text of a PR to someone?

Our support people use Gnatsweb. That tool allows you to email a link to the PR to so-called "interested parties". But, we keep our GNATS data base behind our corporate firewall, which makes that link useless to customers or anyone else without GNATS access.

It would be nice if we could somehow email the HTML table (or equivalent) as formatted by Gnatsweb when you display a PR. Some have resorted to "View Page Source" in Firefox with copy/paste most of the HTML found there (less buttons at the top of the page, attachments, etc). That's quite a bit of manual effort for a function that seems like it should be there already!

Hopefully Dirk still follows this list. I'd be very interested in this

Re: ADV: Gnats?

Hey, Paul!

I believe Mel Hatzis has already coded up an email trigger option. He
has already integrated some of his code changes into GNU GNATS, but this
is one that I don't believe made it. His code-base is published at:

http://professional.juniper.net/gnats/

If you search the help-gnats archive, you'll see some of his posts and
work. I think it would be a good idea to cut a release sooner than
later. Maybe his trigger system could be incorporated in 4.3? We could
see about adding his RDBMS support as well. What would be really cool
would be able to define types of databases in the global databases file
and have the gnatsd server go to different types of database backends --
file-based and rdbms.

Stephane's email queue ordering patch would be a good one to incorporate
for 4.2, as well as coming up with a fix for the \r\n problem for
incoming email. I should also roll in my safe-open changes and
restrictions to gen-index.

Take a look at the open, analyzed, and feedback bugs on
gnats.wookimus.net. Anything sw-bug or doc-bug that is critical should
probably be looked at for 4.2. Patches welcome!

Chad

Yes, I definitely am updating GNATS, though not at a pace that is
respectable by any means; not something I'm proud of. I'm happy to have
any help you could offer. There is an alpha version of GNATS out on
alpha.gnu.org that I uploaded in September. It's essentially a snapshot
of CVS at that time. There are a few fixes slated before the next alpha
release, such as the patches sent in by Stephane.

I'll try to roll in a few today. The only real time I have to work on
this stuff is on the weekends, as I didn't manage to land a job where
GNATS was used. The company is FOSS friendly, but only toward things
we're actually using. Since they already had RT in place, GNATS fell
off the radar.

In any case, the NEWS file contains info about the big updates, the
license change to GPLv3, for example. Take a look at the
help-gnats@... archives to see what else we've been hoping to roll
in.

Re: Webinterfaces for GNATS

2008-01-28T09:21:39Z

Thanks, Frank, for your interest in GNATS and a flexible web interface.
Gnatsweb is probably the most flexible, as you noted, but is also
relatively monolithic. It was created before MVC was really applied to
web interfaces. Ynvge has pulled it forward and maintained it
separately from GNATS itself for some time, though like GNATS,
development has stalled. I'm certain he would enjoy any help you could
provide.

An optional login could certainly be coded up as a default value for
user and password. e.g. If user and password aren't provided, use the
default "guest" account. Should be a quick patch.

Customizing the page layout would certainly be easier with a template
framework. Mason would work, as would any number of Perl templating
engines. Going this route would ultimately mean a rewrite, though.

I'm under the impression that any flexible processing of unformatted
fields, like Audit-Trail is always going to be a custom hack. You can
provide some sort of helper with query format.

There are a couple projects that might help that are linked on the GNATS
project site.

gnatsperl, a collection of perl modules proving an interface to the
GNATS daemon written by Mike Hoolehan.

http://gnatsperl.sourceforge.net/

GnatsVw is a Python rewrite of Gnatsweb by Pankaj K Garg of Zee Source
(link).

http://www.zeesource.net/downloads/GnatsVw-1.0.tar.gz

There is also searching off sourceforge that might help:

http://sourceforge.net/search/?words=GNATS

We can always use people to help.

Webinterfaces for GNATS

2008-01-28T06:15:40Z

We're currently trying to set up GNATS as our Bug Tracking System.
Now we have the problem that none of the web interfaces we've tested
(mainly gnatsweb and the freebsd CGI scripts) fulfills our requirements
exactly. So we're currently looking into developing a solution,
probably based on gnatsweb.

The purpose of this email is
First: to ask whether we might have simply overlooked a more viable
solution? Recommendations welcome.
Second: to ask whether anyone else is interested in working on
developing such a solution if it doesn't already exist?

Our requirements to a BTS web interface are:
- Optional login, i.e. easily accessible to guests and search engines
but with the possibility to have confidential bug reports e.g. for
paying customers and to have different access levels for admins.
All the BSD CGI scripts don't seem to have any login support.
Gnatsweb has it, but it doesn't seem to be easily possible to
make it optional.
- Support for several databases with different settings. Gnatsweb
already seems to support that.
- Customizable page layout. Gnatsweb has some support for that but
it is somewhat rudimentary and once you try something only a little
more involved you're directly in the code. So a stricter segregation
of layout and code would be good.
- Flexible processing of fields like Audit-Trail. The FreeBSD scripts
have code to extract single emails and patches from fields. This is
a very nifty feature, the code for that is a mess though and IMHO
neither easily maintainable nor extensible.

So in summary we really search a Gnatsweb that is less monolithic and with
a improved session handling.

Gruesse,

Thanks, Stephane. I debugged my .procmail script and found I hadn't
updated the PATH environment variables to the new settings. The PR and
patch are duly noted. Unfortunately, I do not have commit access to the
gnatsweb tree to apply your patch. I know some people have been
submitting patches via savannah. I'll leave the PR open, regardless,
until it the fix finds its way into the upstream CVS.

gnatsweb/770: problem with duplicated "cmd" CGI variable. [PATCH]

2007-11-16T06:56:19Z

Hiya,

I've submitted a new PR at http://gnats.wookimus.net/ for that
issue. Please see
http://gnats.wookimus.net/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?user=guest&cmd=view&database=default&pr=770
for details.

However, it seems that submissions to
bug-gnats@... don't work anymore, so that I can't
add information to that PR.

Hence this email to this list.

Regarding that PR, here is a patch that fixes it for me. Not
very neat as it relies a bit on the CGI perl module internals
but short and effective:

RE: Newbie needs help

2007-11-12T08:14:59Z

Hi Duane,

I had the same URL problem after going into the create PR.

There is an issue with the CGI.pm file.

Here is a bug report for CGI.pm
(http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=24479)
dated Jan 21, 2007 which claims that _name_and_path_from_env has problems
with query strings
that contain "//".

The suggested fix to the CGI.pm is this:

Change:

sub _name_and_path_from_env {
my $self = shift;
my $raw_script_name = $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} || '';
my $raw_path_info = $ENV{PATH_INFO} || '';
my $uri = unescape($self->request_uri) || '';
...
To:

sub _name_and_path_from_env {
my $self = shift;
my $raw_script_name = $ENV{SCRIPT_NAME} || '';
my $raw_path_info = $ENV{PATH_INFO} || '';
my $uri = $self->request_uri || '';
$uri =~ s/\?.*$//;
$uri = unescape($uri) || '';
...

============================

The substitution is trying to strip out everything after the first ?

Thanks all for your help w/ the broken URLS. It seems like my main
problem was straying from a standard /cgi-bin/ ScriptAlias; when I
reinstalled the gnats port and redid Apache to just use /cgi-bin/
instead my goofy /gnatsbin/, all is well.

But now for something compeletely different.....

I'm hoping I didn't get too far into giving gnats my blessing for
production implementation without fully understanding the privileges
mechanism.

Here is what our site needs:

1) Our development team needs to be able to submit, query, edit and
manage gnats.

2) We want users (i.e. clients) to be able to log on and submit ONLY --
not see the progress of the tracking, other PR's, etc.

It seems I may have foolishly assumed without testing first that between
gnatsd.user_access and the submitters file that we could accomplish
this. But now that I'm trying to set this up, it appears that nobody can
log on unless they have an entry in gnatsd.user_access. However, I see
no way of limiting them to submit only in there. And now I'm finding
that the submitters file does not mean "submitters" as in "a user who
can submit."

Anybody using gnats in a similar fashion or know of a way to accomplish
these requirements?

Thanks!
