351174 - Fill in or suggest a default for urlbase if it's empty when you visit editparams.cgi

Status: NEW

(Bugzilla :: Administration, task)

Description

[Max Kanat-Alexander]

It's actually easy to figure out what urlbase should be from the environment variables, because they'll contain things like HTTP_HOST and the current URL that the admin used to access the page.

At the least, we could suggest a value in the description.

I think either this bug or bug 263340 should be fixed, but not both.

Comment 2

[Colin Ogilvie [:cso]]

I partly agree with LpSolit, but even if bug 263340 is fixed, I'd still like a value suggested in the description - even if it's just dummy ones so that the admin knows what to entre.

This bug is retargetted to Bugzilla 3.2 for one of the following reasons:

- it has no assignee (except the default one)
- we don't expect someone to fix it in the next two weeks (i.e. before we freeze the trunk to prepare Bugzilla 3.0 RC1)
- it's not a blocker

If you are working on this bug and you think you will be able to submit a patch in the next two weeks, retarget this bug to 3.0.

If this bug is something you would like to see implemented in 3.0 but you are not a developer or you don't think you will be able to fix this bug yourself in the next two weeks, please *do not* retarget this bug.

If you think this bug should absolutely be fixed before we release 3.0, either ask on IRC or use the "blocking3.0 flag".

Bugzilla 3.2 is now frozen. Only enhancements blocking 3.2 or specifically approved for 3.2 may be checked in to the 3.2 branch. If you would like to nominate your enhancement for Bugzilla 3.2, set the "blocking3.2" flag to "?". Then, either the target milestone will be changed back, or the blocking3.2 flag will be granted, if we will accept this enhancement for Bugzilla 3.2.

This particular bug has not been touched in over eight months, and thus is being retargeted to "---" instead of "Bugzilla 4.0". If you believe this is a mistake, feel free to retarget it to Bugzilla 4.0.
