[ 2008 November 15 ] NASA Uses Bugzilla for Endeavour Shuttle and International Space Station

On Friday, November 14, 2008, mission control at NASA had its first live use of a two new problem-tracking systems. These new systems are based on Bugzilla, with customizations by Everything Solved and the NASA Ames Research Center Human-Computer Interaction Group, with support from the San Jose State University Foundation.

The first piece of software is called PRACA (the Problem Reporting and Corrective Action System), and it is used to track problems discovered while building and testing shuttle components, so that mission control and various NASA departments can have problem-solving information at their fingertips.

PRACA will also be used for the future Constellation space program due to begin in 2010. It will replace 40 different database systems at various different departments of NASA, centralizing problem tracking for the Constellation program.

Another system based on Bugzilla, IFI (Items for Investigation), is used for tracking in-flight problems during International Space Station missions.

NASA has been an active contributor to the Bugzilla Project, funding the development of numerous upstream features in Bugzilla, including all of the new custom field types that will appear in Bugzilla 3.2, and even more custom field features that will appear in Bugzilla 3.4.

The Bugzilla Project is proud that it has been able to play such an important role in mankind's exploration of space. We are happy that our open-source software may one day help us reach the stars.

[ 2008 November 06 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.2rc2, 3.0.6, 2.22.6, and 2.20.7

Today there are four releases of Bugzilla!

The biggest release is Bugzilla 3.2rc2. There have been a lot of changes since 3.2rc1, particularly in the UI, so we wanted to put out another release candidate to get feedback. If all goes well with this release candidate, it should become 3.2 final in a few weeks with very few changes. 3.2rc2 is stable enough to use in small production environments, but major installations should wait for 3.2 final before upgrading.

We fixed a security bug in all releases that are coming out today, so there is also a Security Advisory to read.

Other than 3.2rc2, there are three other releases: 3.0.6, 2.22.6, and 2.20.7. 3.0.6 has some minor bug fixes, 2.22.6 brings Perl 5.10 compatibility to the 2.22 series, and 2.20.7 is just a security release.

[ 2008 August 12 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.2rc1, 3.0.5, and 2.22.5

There are three releases of Bugzilla today. See our Status Update for details about the releases and information about what's going on in the Bugzilla Project.

Bugzilla 3.2rc1 is our first Release Candidate for Bugzilla 3.2. If everything goes well with this release, Bugzilla 3.2 should be released soon.

Bugzilla 3.0.5 is a bug-fix and polish release for the 3.0.x series.

Bugzilla 2.22.5 is a security-only release, with no other fixes or changes.

All of today's releases include one security fix. See the Security Advisory for details.

[ 2008 May 04 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.0.4, 3.1.4, 2.22.4 and 2.20.6

Today we have four Bugzilla releases! Read below and in our Status Update for details!

Security Advisory

All of these releases contain security fixes, and so you should definitely upgrade if you are affected by the fixed vulnerabilities. Read the Security Advisory for more details.

3.0.4

Bugzilla 3.0.4 is the latest stable release of Bugzilla. It contains several bug fixes and minor improvements over 3.0.3. Any installation currently running any 3.0.x version is encouraged to upgrade to 3.0.4.

3.1.4

Bugzilla 3.1.4 is our latest development release. It is considerably more stable than 3.1.3, but is still not recommended for production environments. Use this release at your own risk.

2.22.4 and 2.20.6

Bugzilla 2.22.4 and Bugzilla 2.20.6 are security-fix releases for the 2.22 and 2.20 series. If you are using any 2.22 or 2.20 version, we strongly recommend you update to these versions.

[ 2008 February 1 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.1.3

3.1.3

Bugzilla 3.1.3 has had massive changes: among those, a fresh new user interface for editing bugs and experimental support for Oracle databases (caution: read the Status Update before using Oracle with Bugzilla). This release should be considered unstable and only used in testing environments.

[ 2008 January 8 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.0.3

3.0.3

Bugzilla 3.0.3 is the last stable release of the 3.0.x series. In addition to various bug fixes, it contains important performance improvements for mod_perl installations.

There is no development release at this time, as the current CVS HEAD code is not stable enough even for a development release.

[ 2007 September 18 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.0.2 and 3.1.2

We have two new releases, primarily to fix an important security issue discovered in the 3.0.x and 3.1.x series.

3.0.2

Bugzilla 3.0.2 contains the security fix and a few other minor bug fixes.

3.1.2

Bugzilla 3.1.2 also contains the security fix, but just like 3.1.1, it has had massive changes and received little or no testing. It should be considered unstable and only used in testing environments.

[ 2007 August 23 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.0.1, 3.1.1, 2.22.3, and 2.20.5

Today the Bugzilla project has four releases!

3.0.1

Bugzilla 3.0.1 is the first bug-fix release for the 3.0 series. 3.0 was very stable, but 3.0.1 adds a lot of little polish fixes that greatly improve the experience of using Bugzilla.

3.1.1

Bugzilla 3.1.1 is our first development release toward Bugzilla 3.2. It has a huge number of new features, but is extremely unstable. It has not been tested, and should not be used in a production environment. It may fail in critical ways, or destroy your data. However, it is useful as a feature preview and for testing purposes.

2.22.3 and 2.20.5

Bugzilla 2.22.3 and Bugzilla 2.20.5 are security-fix and critical bug-fix releases for the 2.22 and 2.20 series. If you are using any 2.22 or 2.20 version, we strongly recommend you update to these versions.

Security Advisory

All four releases also contain security fixes, and so you should definitely update if you want your installation to remain secure. Read the Security Advisory for more details.

[ 2007 May 09 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.0!

In 1998, the first open-source version of Bugzilla, 2.0, was released to the world without much fanfare, just this little post on the netscape.public.mozilla.announce newsgroup.

Nine years later, Bugzilla is used by thousands of companies around the world with millions of total users. It has become the de-facto standard in open-source bug tracking. Thousands of companies have moved away from their costly commercial bug-tracking systems to Bugzilla, usually finding Bugzilla more flexible and more full-featured than the system they'd been paying thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars for, and proving that open source software really can produce a competitive product.

Today, the Bugzilla Project is extremely proud to announce the release of Bugzilla 3.0, and just like Terry said in 1998, "We like the new version much better, and hope you will too."

Here's just a sampling of the major new features in version 3.0:

  • Custom Fields
  • mod_perl support for greatly-improved performance
  • Per-Product Permissions
  • XML-RPC Interface
  • Create and Modify Bugs by Email
  • and much, much more...

Bugzilla 3.0 also has a much-improved code base over previous versions of Bugzilla. Improvements are still happening, but long-time customizers and coders of Bugzilla will notice significant improvements. And if you haven't seen Bugzilla code since 2.16 or so, prepare to be (pleasantly) surprised!

As always, we welcome open source contributors to Bugzilla, which is made entirely by volunteers around the world. You too can be part of the team that makes a product used by thousands of people daily.

[ 2007 February 26 ] Release of Bugzilla 3.0rc1

We've released our first Release Candidate of Bugzilla 3.0, Bugzilla 3.0rc1! This is a major step towards our final release, and with your help we should be able to release Bugzilla 3.0 by April.

What help do we need? Report bugs! The whole purpose of Release Candidates is to really shake out any remaining bugs that we haven't found, so if you find one, make sure that you file it!

We also have a new Status Update for you, so you can find out what's going on with the Bugzilla Project!

[ 2007 Feb 02 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.22.2, 2.20.4, and 2.23.4

Bugzilla 2.22.2 is a bug-fix and security release:

We also released Bugzilla 2.20.4, a security-fix release for the 2.20 series.

Finally, you can use Bugzilla 2.23.4 in your testing environments. 2.23.4 is fairly stable, since it's currently running on bugzilla.mozilla.org, but it still hasn't gone through QA yet, so it may have unfound critical issues.

There is a Security Advisory for all three releases. Please read it, particularly if you were using 2.23.3.

[ 2006 October 15 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.18.6, 2.20.3, 2.22.1, and 2.23.3

We have many releases for you, today:

  • Bugzilla 2.18.6 and Bugzilla 2.20.3 are security-fix releases for our older branches. (Bugzilla 2.20.3 also contains some non-security bug fixes.)
  • Bugzilla 2.22.1 is our first bug-fix release in the 2.22 series, and contains many useful fixes that improve the experience of using Bugzilla.
  • Finally, we are releasing an unstable development snapshot, Bugzilla 2.23.3. This snapshot has both custom fields and mod_perl support, but has not been tested as thoroughly as our other releases. The 2.23 series will eventually culminate in Bugzilla 3.0.

Also, read our latest Status Update to find out what's going on with the Bugzilla Project, and learn about all the new features in our latest development snapshot!

Users of the 2.18.x series should note that 2.18.x will reach End Of Life when Bugzilla 3.0 is released. There are more details in the Status Update.

[ 2006 July 09 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.23.2

Today we have a new development snapshot for you, Bugzilla 2.23.2. It has a lot of improvements and changes since 2.23.1, so we wanted to get it out and get it tested!

However, remember that this is a development release, and so it has not been thoroughly tested. You should only use it in a testing environment!

[ 2006 April 22 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.22 (also 2.20.2 and 2.23.1)

The Bugzilla Project is proud to announce the official release of Bugzilla 2.22. Bugzilla 2.22 is a major new feature release for Bugzilla, containing a large number of bug fixes and enhancements, including complete PostgreSQL support, UTF-8 support, user-impersonation capabilities, and more.

We are also releasing Bugzilla 2.20.2, a bug-fix release for the 2.20 branch, recommended for all 2.20 branch users.

We also have a development snapshot, Bugzilla 2.23.1, the branch which will someday be released as 2.24 or 3.0. This snapshot is not tested, and should only be installed in a test environment. It's entirely possible that it contains a bug which will delete your entire bug database. Or, it could be perfectly safe. Since it hasn't been tested, nobody knows for sure. You Have Been Warned.

[ 2006 February 20 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.22rc1, 2.20.1, 2.18.5 and 2.16.11

The Bugzilla Project is proud to announce our first Release Candidate for Bugzilla 2.22. Bugzilla 2.22 will be a major new feature release for Bugzilla, containing a large number of bug fixes and enhancements, including complete PostgreSQL support, UTF-8 support, user-impersonation capabilities, and many more features. Also see the draft Release Notes for 2.22.

We are also releasing our first bug-fix release for the 2.20 series, 2.20.1. All users of the 2.20 series are highly recommended to upgrade to 2.20.1, as it contains many improvements and fixes to the 2.20 branch.

There are also two security releases, 2.18.5 and 2.16.11.

Please note that this is very likely the final release on the 2.16 branch. After Bugzilla 2.22 is released, there will be no more security updates from the Bugzilla Project for the 2.16 branch.

[ 2005 December 27 ] Security Advisory for 2.16.x Shadow Database Users

We issued a security advisory today for users of the shadow database feature in Bugzilla 2.16.10. Newer versions of Bugzilla are not affected, nor are you affected if you don't use a shadow database.

We are proud to announce the release of Bugzilla 2.20, a major new feature release for Bugzilla. Bugzilla 2.20 includes a large number of major new features, and hundreds of small enhancements and bug fixes over Bugzilla 2.18.

We also have two other releases, a security fix for the 2.18 series, (Bugzilla 2.18.4),and our latest development snapshot (Bugzilla 2.21.1).

For details on all the releases, see our new, very detailed Status Update.

All of these releases fix security flaws discovered in older versions of Bugzilla. For details, read the Security Advisory.

There is no release on the Bugzilla 2.16 branch, because it was not affected by any of the security issues. 2.16 users should note that support for 2.16 will be totally discontinued with the release of Bugzilla 2.22, and so they are encouraged to ugprade to Bugzilla 2.20 as soon as possible.

[ 2005 August 08 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.20rc2

We are proud to announce the second Release Candidate of Bugzilla 2.20, a major new feature release for Bugzilla.

Bugzilla 2.20rc2 is recommended to be used for testing purposes only. The final release of Bugzilla 2.20 will be shaped by your feedback over the next few weeks.

You can see a list of still-open bugs that we mean to fix before the final release of Bugzilla 2.20.

For those who want a stable version of Bugzilla, we recommend Bugzilla 2.18.x.

[ 2005 July 09 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.18.3

There was a bug in 2.18.2 that caused users to be unable to use the Search page, and possibly other pages as well.

This has been fixed with our release of 2.18.3:

[ 2005 July 07 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.18.2 and 2.20rc1

Bugzilla 2.20 includes support for PostgreSQL, a new "Large Attachment" storage mechanism, a new level of bug classification, user-defined periodic reminders by email, and many other new features.

Bugzilla 2.20rc1 is recommended to be used for testing purposes only. The final release will be shaped by your feedback over the next few weeks.

We are also releasing a bug-fix release for the 2.18 series, 2.18.2. The 2.18 series is recommended for users in production environments. All users of the 2.18 series are recommended to upgrade to 2.18.2 as soon as possible.

There is also a Security Advisory for Bugzilla 2.18.1 and 2.19.3.

We would like to remind users of the 2.16 series that we expect to stop maintenance on 2.16 around October 2005, so they should plan to upgrade to 2.18 or 2.20 before then.

[ 2005 May 18 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.16.10

Under many circumstances, users could not enter a bug on 2.16.9. This has been fixed with our release of Bugzilla 2.16.10:

[ 2005 May 11 ] Release of Bugzilla 2.18.1, 2.19.3, and 2.16.9

Today we are releasing Bugzilla 2.18.1, a bug-fix release for the 2.18 series. It contains various useful bug and security fixes for the original 2.18 release.

We are also releasing a very unstable development snapshot, 2.19.3, for those who want to track the bleeding edge of Bugzilla development. We expect our next development release after this to be Release Candidate 1 (2.20rc1).

Finally, there is a security-fix release for the old 2.16 series, version 2.16.9. Users of 2.16 are still encouraged to upgrade to 2.18 as soon as it is possible.

And read our latest Status Update! It contains a lot of useful information, particularly about the latest development release (which has no release notes besides this Status Update).

Also released are stable version 2.16.7 and development snapshot version 2.19.1. All three releases fix a few security issues.

We are doing a 3rd release candidate because there was a major change to the group security mechanisms in the Charting code. We would appreciate any testing, particularly related to the new "Charts over time" code using groups to limit access to charts.

We have also posted a new status update to help keep everyone informed of where the project is heading.

The Bugzilla Team has released Bugzilla 2.14.5 today to address two security issues which were recently discovered. As we've been warning for the last several months, we are no longer supporting the 2.14 branch as of the end of 2002, so this release marks the last for the 2.14 line. All sites who haven't already done so are strongly encouraged to upgrade to 2.16.2 so you can continue to receive security updates.

[ 2002 Jul 28 ] Bugzilla 2.16 Released

The Bugzilla Team is relieved and pleased to finally announce the release of Bugzilla 2.16, and also a new status update. The product of 11 months of hard work, Bugzilla 2.16 is the first release of Bugzilla to have a templatised UI, allowing administrators easily to customise the look and feel of their Bugzilla without editing Perl code.

There are no security fixes in 2.16 that were not in 2.16rc2 - but anyone running a version of Bugzilla older than that needs to read the 2.16rc2 and 2.14.2 security advisory and previous advisories. Bugzilla 2.16 is the best Bugzilla, and the Bugzilla team strongly recommends its use over all other versions.

[ 2002 Jul 28 ] Bugzilla 2.14.3 Released

Due to a small "brown bag" issue in 2.14.2, 2.14.3 has been released. This release contains two extra fixes to 2.14.2 - we fixed column sorting in buglists, and made a system call in the optional, unsupported, contributed email subsystem more secure.

The 2.14.x branch is Bugzilla's older stable branch. New installations and upgraders are strongly recommended to use 2.16.

[ 2002 Jun 08 ] Bugzilla 2.16 Release Candidate 2 and Bugzilla 2.14.2 are now available

Check out the download page for links to download or update to it. Unless any major problems are found, this is what we'd like to release as version 2.16.

[ 2002 May 10 ] Bugzilla 2.16 Release Candidate 1 is now available

At long last and after much banging of heads against walls, we are proud to announce the availability of a release candidate for Bugzilla 2.16. Check out the download page for links to download or update to it. Unless any major problems are found, this is what we'd like to release as version 2.16. Be sure to check out our latest status update before downloading.

[ 2002 Mar 03 ] New Guides available and another status update

We've added a Developers' Guide and a Reviewers' Guide to our "Developer Resources" page to assist those interested in getting involved to get to know how we do things.
