> Over time it is possible for the Bugzilla database to become corrupt
|
|
or to have anomalies.
|
|
This could happen through normal usage of Bugzilla, manual database
|
|
administration outside of the Bugzilla user interface, or from some
|
|
other unexpected event. Bugzilla includes a "Sanity Check" script that
|
|
can perform several basic database checks, and repair certain problems or
|
|
inconsistencies.
|
|
</P
|
|
><P
|
|
> To run the "Sanity Check" script, log in as an Administrator and click the
|
|
"Sanity Check" link in the admin page. Any problems that are found will be
|
|
displayed in red letters. If the script is capable of fixing a problem,
|
|
it will present a link to initiate the fix. If the script can not
|
|
fix the problem it will require manual database administration or recovery.

script <TT
