Report a bug

You found a bug? Don’t panic, here are some steps to report it easily:

  1. Search for it on the bug tracker (don’t forget to use the search bar).
  2. If you find a similar bug, don’t hesitate to post a comment to add more importance to the related ticket.
  3. If you didn’t find it, open a new ticket.

If you have to create a new ticket, try to apply the following advices:

  • Give an explicit title to the ticket so it will be easier to find it later.
  • Be as exhaustive as possible in the description: what did you do? What is the bug? What are the steps to reproduce the bug?
  • We also need some information:
    • Your FreshRSS version (on about page or constants.php file)
    • Your server configuration: type of hosting, PHP version
    • Your storage system (SQLite, MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL)
    • If possible, the related logs (PHP logs and FreshRSS logs under data/users/your_user/log.txt)
