It > seems that the bugzilla voting is broken :-(( It eventually took it for me.. The frustrating thing here (but possibly why it eventually took it for me) is that every time I have to do something that requires a user ID, I have to login. So, I clicked the link to view the bug, clicked login, (opened up my file of username/password combos, verified my username and copied my pass to the clipboard,) entered my info and logged in, entered the bug number in the search box and clicked search, found the vote for this bug link and clicked it, entered my login info AGAIN and clicked, got the vote summary page and made the appropriate change, clicked submit, entered my login info AGAIN and submitted, got the error, backed up, entered my login info yet AGAIN!!! and submitted, THIS time it worked, displaying the vote summary with the vote for the new bug shown. The problem, I'm edu-guessing, is some interaction between my normally no-cookies (Konqueror) browser option, tho I have it set to take them from qa for bug reporting purposes, privoxy, which I have set to change cookies to session cookies, but that should only mean I have to log in once each session, NOT once per action as it seems I have to do, and the qa/bugzilla software/site. I have the same problem with the gnome bugzilla (which I use for reporting PAN bugs since I run its betas) as well, and had it b4 I started using privoxy, so it would seem to be a bugzilla/konqueror interaction problem. Cookies work fine at other sites, like my bank, for instance, supporting the bugzilla/konqueror interaction theory. It may be something to do with domain globalization issues re the cookie, with Konqueror rejecting requests for it from the global domain when it was the specific qa domain that set the cookie, or requests from the specific domain when it was set by the global, or some such, is my best guess. Whatever.. it's definitely frustrating.. but I WAS eventually able to vote on the bug, and others seem not to be able to, so perhaps it isn't ALL bad.. <g> -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
