I already installed successfully LAMP on suse tumbleweed.
Then i installed bugzilla with yast.
When directing browser to localhost/bugzilla i get
Software error:
The ./data/params.json file does not exist. You probably need to run checksetup.pl. at Bugzilla/Config.pm line 341.
Compilation failed in require at /srv/www/bugzilla/index.cgi line 15.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /srv/www/bugzilla/index.cgi line 15.
Ok, there seems to be a solution to that.
Enter /srv/www/bugzilla and then
./checksetup.pl
But still this does not work as feedbck is:
...
***********************************************************************
* APACHE MODULES *
***********************************************************************
* Some Apache modules allow to extend Bugzilla functionalities. *
* These modules can be enabled in the Apache configuration file *
* (usually called httpd.conf or apache2.conf). *
* - mod_headers, mod_env and mod_expires permit to automatically *
* refresh the browser cache of your users when upgrading Bugzilla. *
* - mod_rewrite permits to write shorter URLs used by the REST API. *
* - mod_version permits to write rules in .htaccess specific to *
* Apache 2.2 or 2.4. *
* The modules you need to enable are: *
* *
* mod_headers, mod_rewrite *
* *
***********************************************************************
W Craig told me that these are not perl modules but apache modules and so i enabled them via
a2enmod mod_headers
a2enmod mod_rewrite
Then i ran
localhost:/srv/www/bugzilla # ./checksetup.pl
again but the result is strange:
* This is Bugzilla 5.0.6 on perl 5.30.1
* Running on Linux 5.8.4-1-default #1 SMP Wed Aug 26 10:53:09 UTC 2020 (64fe492)

What is interesting, mod_rewrite has no version. A module is missing and sth is wrong at auth/mailer.
By the way, the message of my browser is unchanged.
Still ./data/params.json is missing
and it looks like a missing perl ..... thing. ;-)
Ok, next i found a site, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1588175, describing the first of my errors. They advise to comment out /srv/www/bugzilla/Bugzilla/Util.pm: $var =~ tr/\x{202a}-\x{202e}//d; This improves the situation.
Ok, still
There was an error connecting to MySQL:
Access denied for user 'bugs'@'localhost'
This brings me to the point, that i never defined such a user.
Thus i logged in mysql -u root and defined a user:
CREATE USER 'bugs'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'bugs';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'bugs'@localhost;
Then I tried again... This time:
There was an error connecting to MySQL:
Access denied for user 'bugs'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
Ah, clear, i have to specify the password.
So i did vi localconfig and corrected $db_pass = 'bugs';.
Then again ./checksetup.pl.
This time a lot of output.
But still last line is no good:
There is no such group: apache. Check your $webservergroup setting in
./localconfig.
Now ps aux | grep apache unveils that apache has login name wwwrun
and i found that it is in groups wwwrun and www.
I tried to enter the first in ./localconfig, i.e. replaced
$webservergroup = 'apache'; by $webservergroup = 'wwwrun';
(of course, commenting out, not just changing.)
Ok, again i tried ./checksetup.pl and this time i am asked for many things
as email address and password for mail..
and at the end checksetup.pl complete.
Reload of http://localhost/bugzilla/ in browser shows sth different this time:
You don't have permission to access the requested directory.
There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected.
Ah, I have
drwxr-x--- 1 root wwwrun 2076 Sep 10 21:07 bugzilla
So this seems ok and i have an index.cgi inside:
-rwxr-x--- 1 root wwwrun 2171 Aug 25 19:42 index.cgi
Now I had the idea of checking /var/log/apache2/error_log
and the last lines are
[Thu Sep 10 21:11:07.869216 2020] [core:crit] [pid 17926] (13)Permission denied: [client ::1:34306] AH00529: /srv/www/bugzilla/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable and that '/srv/www/bugzilla/' is executable
Ah! it is the .htaccess.
I found out that ./checksetup.pl creates all .htaccess in subdirs
but not in the base.
In the base, that file is just MISSING!!!!
Even if i copy from subdirs, i dont get bugzilla run...
What can i do????
