How do I officially file a bug?

''locking - please stick with your original thread - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/828126''
I have been unable to use Firefox from 4.0 onwards on Solaris/SPARC, because it immediately crashes when encountering a Flash page. I posted a question about it which has been ignored. I would like to file a bug report, but there is no bug reporting tool evident on either mozilla.com or mozilla.org.
Where can I file a bug?

Just in case, download and run the adware removal tool here > The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
Easy, safe, and only takes a minute or two.

BUGS: How do I file a Bug Report?

I have found a reproducible bug in the Oracle XML SQL Utility. How do I file it officially?

Post the bug you found in a way that we can reproduce it and we will file the bug officially.

Could someone please explain to me how to file a bug report?

Hi,
I had a problem recently with a bug in uevnts. I found a workaround for it, However when I went to open a bug that had similar symptoms the user got mad and closed the bug. Could someone please explain to me what I need to do to correctly file a bug report, and please don't say read the wiki. As in order to get log files, I need to know where they are, etc...
Thanks,
MarcoRosso.

What questions remain after consulting the wiki? Maybe you can post the bug report in question, so it will be easier for others to point out how you could have responded more constructively. First general place to look for log files is /var/log/*.

How to file a bug report?

Hi there I'm using a Sony Z3 Compact with Lollipop 5.1.1 and after the update, there is no longer any message on the lock screen, telling me the remaining charge time. I've read others saying the same thing, so I'm definately not alone. I'd like to file a bug report somewhere, but where does one do so? Kind regards, Martin

Is it something you can do, or can you point me in the right direction?

Windows 8.1 x64 - Serious "file move" bug

I've reliably replicated a file copy bug in Windows 8.1. It's rather significant, and needs to be fixed ASAP, but this is the only forum I can find where I can even report it.
Problem: A drag-and-drop (or cut-and-paste) "move" operation where the destination files already exist results in the dropped files being deleted without warning, with the destination files being unchanged.
How to replicate: Take the following steps, which assume that your Desktop is located on your C: drive.
Create a folder on the C: drive. Name it "zzz" to make it easy to find.
Create a folder on the Desktop, then create another "zzz" folder inside of it. Let's name this one "Desktop\Test\zzz" for clarity.
Copy a couple of files from a different drive into both "zzz" folders, so that the contents of both folders are identical. It is best if the files are at least a few days old, so the last-modified date will be obvious.
Change one or two of the files in the Desktop's "zzz" folder. The nature of the change doesn't matter.
Make sure you have two Explorer windows open - one for Desktop\Test and one for C:\ - to facilitate file copying.
Drag the new "zzz" folder from Desktop\Test into C:\.
What should happen at this point is that, since you're moving files where the filenames are the same, Windows should show an alert box and prompt you for the correct handling of the situation. However, that's not what happens. The Desktop's "zzz"
folder quietly vanishes, and the C:\zzz folder retains its old files. The new files are deleted without warning. In addition, if you use Ctrl-Z to Undo the copy...the Desktop "zzz" folder comes back, but it's empty. All of your changes
are irretrievably gone.
The folder depth doesn't seem to be relevant; I discovered the bug while working with files several folders deep, but the demonstration shows that it happens at the root level as well. Likewise, there's nothing special about the C: drive; I replicated it
on R:\ (an external USB hard drive) just as easily. Similarly, I should point out that performing these steps between two different drives (triggering a copy rather than a move) is handled correctly, although using shift-drag to force a move demonstrates the
same bug.
When using Cut/Paste instead of (shift-)drag/drop, the same thing happens, but at least there's an alert box. It's not helpful, but it does at least show a message:
Item Not Found
Could not find this item
This is no longer located in (folder name). Verify the item's location and try again.(icon and file information)
However, none of the three options presented will do you any good; by the time you see this alert box, the source folder and its contents have already been deleted.

Thing is, I *do* get prompted when there are conflicts while copying folders. I've been using Windows 8.1 since it came out, professionally and every day, and I've not run across a file-copy gotcha worse than a copy conflict prompt popping
behind an open window (but it does always get issued).
I wonder what could now be configured differently between our two setups... I have installed the program Classic Shell, and it does add some capabilities to Explorer. However, I don't recall "correcting the handling of folder copy conflicts"
ever being listed as one of the things it brings to the party.
Sorry that setting alone didn't correct the whole issue for you.

To access ifs data from SQL, you need to (officially) setup a 'user view'. Refer to the Java API documentation on how to do this. Once you have created the user view, then you may access this view using any SQL tool.

Even it is not registering it. So how to delete archivelog file at standby database.
Thanks in Advance

This appears related to Bug 3298797 that was supposed to be fixed in 10.2.0.1. The workaround is to switch over to the standby, register the standby and then switch back.

How to make a file "hidden"

This question might sound stupid but here it goes. How do you hide a file?, i know how to view hidden files (onyx) but i dont know how to make a normal file as hidden

On a related note, I am looking for a way to hide only those files that I want hidden. Some hidden files I need to access on an almost-daily basis, but others, like .DS_Store and such, I'll never need direct access to.
So, is there an official way to set up a custom list of file names and/or file regex patterns so only certain files are hidden from the Finder?
Thanks!

How to check amsilent file in Sun Access manager patch or redeploying WAR's

h1. How to check amsilent file in Sun Access manager patch or redeploying WAR's
I had a hard time getting all the passwords correct, so I wrote a shell (bash) script that uses most passwords and other parameters in searches and queries. It let's you know before you start if a value is wrong. It does not change anything, only queries.
h2. One pitfall I found ...
during the postinstall of patch 05. I told Sun about it, but I suspect it was too late and is also an issue with patch 06:
Look at the documentation regarding amconfig and the amsilent file:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2137/adsav?l=en&q=amconfig&a=view
Two problems that are clear to me now:
1. ADMINPASSWD in practice, this password is used for cn=puser, not amadmin as it says. Perhaps there is something that makes them the same. It was the same for me, so it probably does not matter.
2. AS81_ADMINPASSWD is not the same as ADMINPASSWD using either my definition or the document's definition. However, in the amsilent template, it is set like this, which I found is incorrect and the cause of my recent hair loss:
<blockquote>AS81_ADMINPASSWD="$ADMINPASSWD"</blockquote>
Also, this one if you use the web server:
<blockquote>WL8_PASSWORD="$ADMINPASSWD"</blockquote>
Delete the $ADMINPASSWD and replace it with the password for the app/web server.
h2. The Script.
It tests for the above problem, but I just realized it does not check $ADMINPASSWD. If that is set incorrectly in your amsilent, you'll get errors immediately from amconfig, so no big deal. If you make improvements, please post a reply!
Paste this into a file named checkamsilent. LDAP and appserver must be running. It reads /opt/SUNWam/amsilent. Run it as root or use sudo:
sudo ./checkamsilent
#!/usr/bin/bash
        echo "This will test several important parameters of the amsilent file "
        echo "run this as root."
        echo "### read in the amsilent parameters"

        echo "."
        echo "### Expect to see a line of XML, otherwise the SERVER_PORT is incorrect in the amsilent file."

        echo "."

How I could tranfer files from my iPad to my MacBook Pro without any software?

I never found a method how to do transfering files between iPad and MacBook Pro without any software.
Exist some method?
If you know how to do it, please help me as faster as you can!
THANK YOUU!!

Hi,
Unfortunately general file transfer is not currently supported on iOS devices. If you have apps installed on your iPad that support file sharing, you can exchange files with these apps by connecting your iPad to your computer and selecting the Apps tab on the device's page in iTunes. If you scroll down here, you will find a list of apps, that support file sharing, and you can copy file to/from the particular app, but there's no way of accessing the iPad's file system without 3rd party software, and even if you use one, it will be able to access the file storage areas of the file system, but not the OS root folder. You need a jailbroken device to do that.
iTunes also copies all your photos and videos from your devices. The only official way of moving file between iOS devices is with iTunes. If you consider iTunes a software (it is one) than there's absolutely no way for that, if your device is not jailbroken.
Just to be clear, I'm against jailbreaking, because it makes your device vulnerable, and can create a lot of problems, that would not exist on a factory device.
Hope this helps
Regards,
Gábor
