+ | |||
+ | ===== Report a Bug ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | As mentioned above, DokuWiki bugs **have** to be reported at [[https:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | When reporting a bug you should try to include as much information as possible that helps developers with identifying the problem. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This can include: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * DokuWiki version | ||
+ | * Operating system of the server and client | ||
+ | * The used web server | ||
+ | * The used PHP version | ||
+ | * The used browsers (try multiple) | ||
+ | * Everything that's special about your setup (plugins, auth backends, weird network config, etc.) | ||
+ | * Exact steps to reproduce the problem | ||
+ | * Screenshots | ||
+ | * What did you try to fix the problem and what where the exact results? | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is especially important to gather exact error messages! See if you can find error logs from the web server and the JavaScript console (see below). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Please also read [[http:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== How to obtain additional info ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | As mentioned above, DokuWiki developers need detailed error messages to debug a problem. Sometimes those are printed directly to the screen, but sometimes they aren' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Server/PHP Error Logs ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Whenever something goes fatally wrong, PHP will just stop processing your request. This usually results in a [[faq: | ||
+ | |||
+ | In all of those cases PHP will log an error message to some log file. Where exactly that log file resides is different from system | ||
+ | |||
+ | Typical locations are: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ''/ | ||
+ | * ''/ | ||
+ | * ''/ | ||
+ | * ''/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you are on a hosted server, best ask your provider where to find that log. If you don't have access to '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | < | ||
+ | php_value display_errors 1 | ||
+ | php_value display_startup_errors 1 | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | |||
+ | That may send the error message to the browser. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== JavaScript Console log ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sometimes things go wrong on the client side (inside your browser). To figure out what, you will need to access the JavaScript console of your browser. To do so use the following keyboard shortcuts: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ^ Browser ^ Windows/ | ||
+ | | Chrome | ||
+ | | Firefox | '' | ||
+ | | Internet Explorer | '' | ||
+ | | Safari | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you see any errors (usually shown in red) in the console, go to your [[plugin: | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you find errors in the JavaScript console you should always attach them to your bug report. Preferably the ones found with the " | ||
