NAME

Bundle::Bugzilla - A bundle of the modules required for Bugzilla.

SYNOPSIS

perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::Bugzilla'

CONTENTS

DBI

Data::Dumper

DBD::mysql

Chart::Base

Date::Parse

DESCRIPTION

This bundle installs the prerequisites for Bugzilla.

After installing this bundle, it is recommended that you run the magic checksetup.pl script to check that all modules are in place and setup the tables in the database. Then, you will need to edit the file called 'localconfig' with your settings for bugzilla. After this, log in to your installation and make yourself an account. Run checksetup.pl again and you will become the superuser for your bugzilla installation. Still confused? Read the INSTALL and README for more information.

DBI This module is used to connect to the database that Bugzilla uses to store its information.

Data::Dumper The Data::Dumper module provides data structure persistence for Perl (similar to Java's serialization). It comes with later sub-releases of Perl 5.004, but a re-installation just to be sure it's available won't hurt anything. Data::Dumper is used by the MySQL related Perl modules.

DBD::mysql This module is used to connect to the mysql database that Bugzilla uses to store its information.

Chart::Base Used to create the bug charts in the reporting functions in reports.cgi.

Date::Parse Enables SQL-style search query statements for Bugzilla.
