I did not see the user damani in b.p.o, so it wasn't created. Was there error message? |
No error, I'm redirect to this page: https://bugs.python.org/user?@template=rego_progress But I have no mail. I have just tried again right now. |
I have still the problem. |
@damani42 told me on IRC that he only filled 3 fields in the registration form:
I asked because once there was an issue on email confirmation for users who filled the homepage (URL) field. |
On bugs.python.org side, multiple emails are logged as sent. It may be an issue on @damani42 side: maybe his email server dropped these emails, maybe seen as spam. |
@vstinner was the issue with the homepage field fixed? It looks like: #52 may be caused by homepage url validation. I looked at the tracker and on first glance at least the detector looks -- rouilj |
I ran into a similar problem today when trying to register. Received the homepage url validation error. I provided a value like, blog.mysite.com instead of https://blog.mysite.com. The verification link failed until I went back to the registration page and updated the homepage value. I am happy to help if someone can point me to where the code is to make changes. I would lean towards front end validation or remove the homepage URL from the registration page. |
The registration page makes no changes to the database, so it's not subject to the backend validation. There are four ways to make this better in degree of difficulty.
Note I am not sure if the maintainers will have the time/will to make the changes but... -- rouilj |
I think the first option makes the most sense. A home page is not required to create an account and can cause problems if the value is filled in with errors that are difficult to understand for new users. Unless this is being used as a kind of new user filter, it is better, at least in my humble opinion, to ask for the required fields at sign up and allow the user to update once registered. So is the code for bugs.python.org impossible/difficult to create a PR for? I would be happy to make the actual changes as it seems to be a simple issue that can help teach me the pull request process for this project. EDIT: It looks like the patch creation process is a little different for b.p.o. I'll do a little research and see if I can get the Docker container up and running to create a patch. |
@Mariatta @ezio-melotti is there a git clone of the roundup bpo tracker that nmaynes can do a pull request against? Alternatively I can talk a maintainer (maybe ezio has a few cycles?) through the change that is needed if it is acceptable. -- rouilj |
I think this is the repo now? https://github.com/psf/bpo-roundup |
I ran into the outdated instructions today. Tried to read through the text files in the new repo and change the docker image so it could run the appropriate scripts but kept running into issues. I have a few cycles over the next two weeks that I would be happy to contribute to updating the docs/Docker image. I probably need a bit of guidance on how the git repo is structured compared to the TrackerDevelopment wiki page. |
It seems the correct repo is at https://github.com/psf/bpo-tracker-cpython according to #2 (comment) |
BTW, I've already set up my development environment and I can quickly remove the homepage field from |
Looks like you gal/guys have it in hand. FYI I am going to unwatch this issue so @rouilj me if you need assistance. |
Fixed in psf/bpo-tracker-cpython@515d0ad. I've also managed to reproduce the problem locally by filing the homepage field with an invalid input and verified that the proposed fix by John works as expected. IIRC, the fix should be online in an hour or so. Thank you all! |
I have tried to create an account multiple times today, but I didn't received the mail confirmation. I have checked my spam folder. The username is damani.
