302381 - QUICKSTART is a bit outdated

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Documentation, defect)

Description

[Teemu Mannermaa (:wicked)]

Just looked at QUICKSTART on trunk and saw following outdated information in it:
 1) Step 4 tells that localconfig contains platforms, operating systems,
severities and priorities but this is no longer true since bug 17453.
 2) Last line refers to http://www.bugzilla.org/discussion.html which, while
still working via redirect, should be changed to http://www.bugzilla.org/support/

Couldn't see other misinformation but somebody might try to follow the
instructions to see if there are any other issues..

patch for tip

Looks OK...

However, the tip also works with postgres so if you could change references to MySQL to include this it would be better... Also: 

-   This will usually include assorted Perl modules, MySQL and sendmail.
+   This will usually include assorted Perl modules, MySQL and MTA.

"and a MTA" reads better to me...

patch v2

Looks OK. Two nits to fix on commit:

"and Sendmail compatible MTA" -> "and a Sendmail compatible MTA"

postgresql should be PostgreSQL throughout.
