You mean adding new values to existing fields from editvalues.cgi or adding new fields? You cannot add any custom field in Bugzilla 2.22.

Hi Frederic,

It's not adding new values to existing fields from editvalues.cgi and not adding new fields. Actually I was applied customfields patch for Bugzilla 2.18.3 version and recently it has been upgraded to the version 3.0. Every thing is fine in 3.0 except existed customfields are not visible. I didn't get the old customfields which I added earlier.

Thanks,
RK.

I don't know where your customfield patch comes from, but there was no such official patch for 2.18. And consequently, checksetup.pl is (as expected) unable to know what these fields are and what to do with them. You will have to fix this problem yourself.

Yes, apparently you didn't read bug 91037 comment 312, despite the fact that the bug says to read that comment, at the very top. (It's possible the comment didn't exist when you applied the patch, but it was always true.)

What come of this bug thread, I would  very much like to see a solution provided if some one had gone through the ppath of porting custom field from patched Bugzilla 2.18.1 to Bugzilla 3.0.2. The reason for to porting Custom field is that the old one had a way to filter out custom field per product each product will have their own unique custom field that they are associated with.
