In what way is the orginazation "cumbersone"?  If we take over and
continue with BZ then I don't see how the organization would be
different.

I did a first test and it didn't work.
I'll play with it and see if I can make it work.
I'm sure it's just an Apache config option in the vhost.

Excuse me for jumping the thread but I'd just like to mention that there is a
similar situation with wiki:

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Backup

There is a redundant "wiki" sub-domain / application path combination.

If it is not an Apache problem, one other consideration might be an .htaccess 
rule inserted there by BZ.

Hi,

BZ is Perl, so no recompiling needed.
Changing that parameter is not sufficient.  Indeed, when I was testing it
was set without the added /bugzilla.
I think the issue is an Apache configuration issue.

I would think that’s a permalink type setting. BZ is writing that in because 
it’s specified. I’d be shocked (and saddened a little) to discover it was hard 
coded. (editable of course, but then you’d have to recompile BZ!)

Re: [GNC-dev] GnuCash Bugzilla URLs -- /bugzilla or not?

[Adrien Monteleone]

I like the idea to either use a sub-domain OR a sub-folder, but not both. (for 
the same purpose)

I suppose to stay consistent with other practices on gnucash.org, stick with 
the sub-domain.

My usual rule is that if you are providing something that is running a separate 
process from the webserver (such as a bugzilla instance, mailman, webmail, 
wiki, online store, etc.) then use a sub-domain. If you’re just accessing a 
separately organized area of the main website, use a sub-folder.

Though you could have sub-folders that are specifically for specially organized 
info/instances for each sub-domain as applicable. For example, if you have 
several help pages for BZ, those might all be collected under 
bugzilla.gnucash.org/help/ rather than throwing all of them at the top level.

I’m not sure how BZ is organized, but an exception to this rule might be if you 
maintained separate bug lists for the different branches, you might do that 
with sub-folders, but if you have to run separate BZ instances, then probably 
use another level of subdomain—i.e., bugzilla.gnucash.org/maint/ or 
maint.bugzilla.gnucash.org. (probably a bad example since such separation is 
going to be likely messy if someone files a bug under the wrong instance, but 
not so much if there’s one instance with branch organization, which I think is 
already provided from within BZ anyway)

As a side question, will this be a more up-to-date version of BZ? (is there 
one?) I find the organization used by current version a little cumbersome, 
though perhaps that might go away when this becomes a dedicated GnuCash BZ 
instance without any other projects.

Regards,
Adrien

p.s. - don’t forget if you don’t already have it, you’ll need a wildcard 
certificate to handle the subs.

I did a simple test to try to remove the extra /bugzilla but it failed and
locked me out of the server (yay fail2ban).  When I get home I'll take
more time to try to figure it out.  So it stays for now.  I consider it
low priority to fix; all existing URLs will be broken anyways, so when we
mass convert it's not a big deal to re-add the extra /bugzilla in there.

[GNC-dev] GnuCash Bugzilla URLs -- /bugzilla or not?

[Derek Atkins]

Hi,

As you are aware, we are looking at migrating from gnome bugzilla to our
own instance because gnome is shutting their BZ off.  I've been working on
migrating the data, and have what I think is a good migration process in
place.  We are at the early stages of testing the migration, but I wanted
to open up some high-level questions to everyone.

My first question to you all:  The BZ URL.

The current URLs at gnome are bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi

Currently, the URLs for us are bugzilla.gnucash.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi

Do people care?  Do you want me to look at removing that /bugzilla in there?

Let me know your thoughts.  I'll post more questions later.

Thanks!
