Bug 121209 – [bugstest,revisit] "Assign To:" doesn't work when entering a new bug

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Infrastructure

[Description Sascha Silbe 2006-02-01 11:47:37 UTC]

I've had this several times now, but this time I'm 100% sure I hadn't just 
forgot to fill out the field:

Even if I fill out the "Assign To:" field on the New bug form, it will be 
set to [e-mail].

E.g. Bug #121200:
I entered "[e-mail]" as "Assign To:" since he's listed in 
/usr/portage/net-nds/openldap/metadata.xml. But the confirmation email tells
me it's assigned to [e-mail] instead:

           Summary: net-nds/openldap-2.2.28-r3: build fails in net-
                    nds/openldap-2.2.28-r3
           Product: Gentoo Linux
           Version: unspecified

          Priority: P2
         Component: Unspecified
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]


And sure enough, an hour later it gets reassigned to [e-mail]:

[e-mail] changed:

Sascha,

Try now. I edited your perms to look like all the other users. Not really sure what is going on here.

[Comment 2 Sascha Silbe 2006-02-01 11:58:56 UTC]

Still the same with bug #121209 (tried to assign it to you).

[Comment 3 Sascha Silbe 2006-02-01 12:00:49 UTC]

Sorry, should have read bug #121210 instead of #121209.

It never worked since the 2.20 upgrade...

Reopening, this needs to be fixed, wasting lots of my time.

[Comment 7 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-11-16 03:28:38 UTC]

CCing infra, I'd really like to have this fixed on bugstest.g.o.

have you proven it broken on bugstest?

[Comment 9 Robin Johnson 2006-11-29 14:03:27 UTC]

This seems to work perfectly fine in bugstest already.

You can't test this w/ dev privs, you need a unpriviledged bugzilla user test account.

[Comment 11 Robin Johnson 2007-01-06 08:21:28 UTC]

Moving open bugzilla bugs to the new bugzilla group (because I'm about to stab lots of these bugs).

[Comment 12 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) 2010-04-17 14:09:20 UTC]

A normal user can't assign bugs.
A user with at least editbugs privileges can assign the bug even while filing a new one.

I'm not sure if you ever had those privileges but at least since the upgrade to bugzilla-2.22.7 the "Assign to:" field is not accessible for normal users.

So I'll resolve this as FIXED.
