Hyperlink not created in comments section of bugzilla?

+1 vote
357 views

When I try to create a file link in "Comments" section, by typing file://, the link does not get created. It is shown as plain text.

But I am able to create hyperlinks using http://. What do I need to do to create file links using file:// ?

I have found the solution which solves my purpose. Hope this helps somebody. Bugzilla now, does not create auto-link for protocols which are not in its list of safe protocols.

Since I was trying to link a file, the 'file' protocol needs to be added to the list of safe protocols. So, I added it to the list which is in the file 'Bugzilla/Constants.pm'.

Now, when I type 'file://', Bugzilla creates the auto-link.
(All this is done in the 'Comments' section).

Anyone run into an issue where the time zone is not working in Bugzilla? We have set the time zone for the server in the administration settings. It worked for about a day and now it is no longer working. It is still showing as the correct time zone (MDT) and when I post to a defect it even says MDT, but it is 6 hours in advance.
