BugNET 0.8 Preview Released

Mon, 28 Jul 2008 05:00:00 GMT

A preview release of the next major version of BugNET has been released (0.8).

This release is primarly geared towards gaining your comments and feedback regarding the direction of this release and to give everyone a look of what has been done to improve the application and address many of the major new features in the issue tracker. There are a lot of new features that have been added and we want your comments!

This is not like an ordinary release in that:

It is unsupported.
There will be no upgrade path to the final version.
It is not meant to be used in a live / production environment.

To make it easier for people to try out, there is no install with this release, just unzip and make a virutual directiory and run the application. You may also attach the BugNet database (found in the app_data folder) using sql server and change the connection string accordingly.

As all development versions, the user name is "Admin" and password is "password".

For those who would like to see the new features but do not wish to setup the application I will start a new screenshot gallery for the release as well.

Get the BugNET 0.8 Preview Release and contribute your feedback in the forum thread.

BugNET 0.7.921.0 Released!

Sun, 06 Apr 2008 05:00:00 GMT

The new build of BugNET has been posted in the downloads section. This is a new version if the 0.7 releases which fixes bugs and adds some new features.

NOTE: This release fixes critical security bugs that could allow a registered user to elevate their priviledges and it is recommended that you upgrade your installation.

~~Update:~~

It has come to my attention that when upgrading there is a script error, which is trying to drop a stored procedure that may not exist. Temporarly to fix this you can open the 0.7.921.0.SqlDataProvider.sql (found under Install\dbscripts folder) file in a text editor and remove the following code. A package update will occur this evening for those who do not wish to do this manually.

~~SQL~~

PRINT N'Dropping [dbo].[chObjOwner]'
GO
DROP PROCEDURE [dbo].[chObjOwner]
GO
IF @@ERROR<>0 AND @@TRANCOUNT>0 ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
GO
IF @@TRANCOUNT=0 BEGIN INSERT INTO #tmpErrors (Error) SELECT 1 BEGIN TRANSACTION END
GO

0.7.891.0 install package problem

Mon, 21 Jan 2008 05:00:00 GMT

I have to apologize to all those who are installing the issue tracker for the first time but the latest install package does not create an up to date database.

To fix this manually perform the following steps on your database:

Run this sql statement against the database to add the proper version
UPDATE HostSettings SET SettingValue = '0.7.891.0' WHERE SettingName = 'Version'
Run the 0.7.891.0.SqlDataProvider.sql script from the install directory on your database to reflect the current changes.

All existing installations are unaffected by this problem and should reflect the current changes in the latest version.

The install package will be updated tonight to fix this.
