Crash log resource website

http://crashlog.os4depot.net/

Some betatesting and feedback please :)

(Search has not been implemented yet)

@orgin

He he, the 1st one (testit) is the one I posted about OWB, isn't it?

Anyway, great idea, it will make the forum easier to read

@orgin

One should be able to reach the main OS4Depot sites and all
subsites whenever one wishes ... links?

Nice anyway

@Raziel

Yepp, I've planned to add that later. Need to get some feedback for the two new sites first.

@K-L

yeah, just used it as some test data. Sorry.

@orgin

Wonderful idea!

@orgin

1. Verification emails don't seem to be working (didn't get mine)
2. Can we have an option to upload a crashlog, rather than having to copy/paste the entire thing in?
3. Preview doesn't do much
4. It asks for the submitter even though I'm logged in??
edit 5. The version number of the app isn't displayed on the crashlog page.

I'm not sure about the long-term usefulness, unless it evolves into a complete bug tracking system, but it's certainly better than clogging up the forums with pasted crashlogs!

Suggestion: Link the apps in OS4depot to the crashlogs for that app.

1. Verification emails work, I get them on my address. There's no guarantees for what gets delivered or not in the global email system however. Not that you need to be registered to use this feature.

2. I expected to get a request for that, we'll see.

3. Preview shows if you have forgotten any of the required fields and a rendered preview of the "description" field since it takes bbcode. None of the other fields need a preview since they look the same as in the form.

4. Submitter is not a required field. Even if you enter information in it it will be overwritten by your user details if logged in. But you did remind me of something, I have to take care if the user isn't validated yet. (You can still login as a non validated user, but you don't get any privileges)

5. Oups!

6(sort of). The main intent is for having a place to paste them. I'll add a simple search later on but it's not intended for a complete bugzilla sort of system.

7(sort of). Okey that would be a nightmare to do. I'll think a bit about it though. (There's no relation between the sub sites and the main site, different servers, different databases, no way of propagating changes between them)

@Chris

verification worked for me, but it took me to the sobjs.os4depot site not the crashlogs one.

@Swoop

Ahh fixed now. It doesn't really matter though since they use the same database. Register at one and you're registered at the other.

Okey, now its possible to specify an optional os4depot path.

On the main site there is a [Show crashlogs] link on each file readme page. Clicking it will display all crashlog that have the files path specified.

example:

http://os4depot.net/?function=showfil ... tility/archive/xad_7z.lha

@orgin

Now when you click on [Show crashlogs], the submit link on the next page needs to pre-fill the OS4Depot path.

Added some new functionality:
