	changing the e-mail Bugzilla sends error notifications by default by Vlad Olteanu :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi, I'm totally new to Bugzilla and Linux - however I managed to correctly install Bugzilla 3.2.5 on a Centos 5 machine, it works just fine but I still need to tweak something. The issues is with the e-mail address bugzilla sends the error comments such as 'invalid e-mail address' to: currently it's set to root@<bugzilla instalation> which means that all mail goes to my var/spool/mail/root directory in the linux installation - it'd be great if it could just come to my mailbox. Many thanks in advance for your help!

	Re: changing the e-mail Bugzilla sends error notifications by default by Srinivas B. :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Ideally, you shouldn't be running bugzilla as "root" but as a user like: bugzilla or bugs or something else. There are detailed instructions in the documentation to setup Bugzilla to this effect. If you do that way, you can have the emails sent/received as bugzilla@<...> rather than "root". -Srinivas On Tue, Nov 10, 2009 at 12:35 AM, Vlad Olteanu <volteanu@...>wrote: > Hi, > > I'm totally new to Bugzilla and Linux - however I managed to correctly > install Bugzilla 3.2.5 on a Centos 5 machine, it works just fine but I > still > need to tweak something. > > The issues is with the e-mail address bugzilla sends the error comments > such > as 'invalid e-mail address' to: currently it's set to root@<bugzilla > instalation> which means that all mail goes to my var/spool/mail/root > directory in the linux installation - it'd be great if it could just come > to > my mailbox. > > Many thanks in advance for your help! > > Vlad > > > _______________________________________________ > support-bugzilla mailing list > support-bugzilla@... > https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-bugzilla > PLEASE put support-bugzilla@... in the To: field when you > reply. > -- -Srinivas B. _______________________________________________ support-bugzilla mailing list support-bugzilla@... https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-bugzilla PLEASE put support-bugzilla@... in the To: field when you reply.
	Re: changing the e-mail Bugzilla sends error notifications by default by Vlad Olteanu :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Many thanks, Dan! Your solutions seems to be by far the simplest to use. There's also an alternative: Adding a "root: username_to_forward_to" line to your /etc/aliases' file also works just fine. Thx for all your help, this topic can now be considered to be closed. "Dan Wierenga" <dwierenga@...> wrote in message news:mailman.789.1257874563.526.support-bugzilla@......
