About the Bug Reports category

Bug Reports is for reproducible problems in OpenExhibit — anything that crashes, returns the wrong output, breaks rendering, or otherwise behaves differently from what the docs and the code suggest.

Before posting, please check:

  • That the bug isn’t already filed here or on the GitHub issue tracker
  • That you can reproduce it on the latest version
  • That it isn’t a configuration question (those belong in Support & Help)

A good bug report includes:

  • OpenExhibit version (and commit hash if building from source)
  • PostgreSQL version and OS / deployment environment
  • Exact steps to reproduce
  • What you expected to happen
  • What actually happened, with any relevant log output
  • A minimal test case if you can produce one

Replies can be marked as the solution once the bug is fixed or the root cause is identified. Confirmed bugs will usually be mirrored to a GitHub issue so they can be tracked through to a release.
