How to manage a Bug Reports with Bugzilla
You should have a link to the bug you just created near the top of your page. It should say “Bug XXXX posted”, with a link to the right saying “Back to BUG# XXXX”. Select this link.
1.Scroll down a bit on the subsequent page, until you see the “Resolve bug, changing resolution to (dropdown box). Normally, you would “Accept bug (change status to ASSIGNED)”, fix it, and then resolve. But in this case, we’re going to short-circuit the process because this wasn’t a real bug. Change the dropdown next to “Resolve Bug” to “INVALID”, make sure the radio button is marked next to “Resolve Bug”, then click “Commit”.
2. Hey! It said it couldn’t take the change in a big red box! That’s right, you must specify a Comment in order to make this change. Select the “Back” button in your browser, add a Comment, then try Resolving the bug with INVALID status again. This time it should work.
