843291 - "Use of uninitialized value in string eq at Bugzilla/BugUrl/Bugzilla/Local.pm" warning during a 4.0 to 4.2 upgrade

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Bugzilla :: Installation & Upgrading, defect)

Description

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

I just pulled the bmo-4.2 repo, pointed it at a clone of a bmo-4.0 database, and ran checksetup. I got:

Use of uninitialized value in string eq at Bugzilla/BugUrl/Bugzilla/Local.pm line 64.

887 times. 887 is the number of rows in the bug_see_also table.

The URLs in the table are all of this form:
http://localhost/src/bugzilla-3.4/show_bug.cgi?id=1

This only happened on the first run of checksetup.pl, between the lines:
Adding new column 'class' to the 'bug_see_also' table...
and
Updating column bug_file_loc in table bugs ...

If nothing else, I think this probably points up the need for some better error handling in that class...

(Feel free to punt this over if it's not bmo-specific.)

[:glob ✱]

these are warnings, not errors, and are probably harmless

> http://localhost/src/bugzilla-3.4/show_bug.cgi?id=1
that url doesn't generate a warning for me.

i don't see any warnings when upgrading bmo-4.0 to 4.2, so it's possible this is triggered by an older URI module version (i have v1.60).

either way, this isn't a bmo specific customisation, shifting upstream.

I don't remember having seen this problem either. Reopen if you can reproduce.
