Open source bug tracking
-
We use BugNet at http://www.bugnetproject.com/[^] and we're pretty happy with it. It's ASP.NET.
I'll check it out, thanks!

If your needs are basic, I've successfully used Issue Tracker from the ASP.NET startup kits. Grabbed source (C# or VB.NET) and built the DB. It's a .Net based web solution. Supports multiple projects and assignment of projects by user, etc. Flexibility to tweak code -- code base is relatively small. Basic, but works. http://www.asp.net/downloads/archived/starter-kits/issue-tracker Ri-
I'll give it a look, thanks!

Dangerous statement my friend. A web based system should be language and system agnostic. I am sure you have a sacrificial box somewhere that can run linux, I have a few.
Although I agree philosophically, the realities of the matter are that I need a web based system that my clients can also access, and my hosting platform is MS technologies. Could I force a square peg in a round hole? Of course. However, sometimes it's just nice if things are easy. :)

We use BugTracker.Net. It's an ASP.Net based system that is easy to configure, and easy to use. Our internal testers are generally not very tech adept, but they required almost no training for this. Another nice thing is that, being open-source and based on ASP.Net and SQL Server Express, .Net programmers will find it interesting to poke around the .aspx pages and SQL queries. The developer is good about answering questions on the forum and encourages users to modify the pages and queries if the built-in settings don't need their needs.

Hey, guys. I may have something coming up where I'll have need for a web based bug tracking system, and given that they're a startup, free / open source is a Good Thing. I looked at Bugzilla since Filezilla is such nice work, but it's Perl / Penguin and I prefer a .NET solution that's more native to the Windows universe. Any suggestions?

Search CodePlex for anything .NET. There are some duds out there but I have also found some great stuff. I was just looking for the same thing the other day and ran across Webolize. http://www.codeplex.com/webolize[^] I have not looked at it yet in any detail, so take this with a grain of salt. good luck

I don't know of any .NET bugtracker, but you may want to try Mantis[^] (uses php+mysql, which you can install on Windows).

Yep, Mantis is great.

I suppose you want something that is free, requires zero installation, and is very simple. I have been using zoho creator for a month or two, and it does the job. They have a "bug tracker" which you can start with, then customize with added fields and drop down lists, etc. You can make the UI, which looks like a spreadsheet, appear anywhere on your website, even inside one of your pages, without having to install anything on your server. I think it is a good place to start people off on bug tracking. The simplicity will not intimidate most, and if they like using it and begin calling for sophistication and integration, then they will be motivated to install a client on their systems, and to pay you to install a server.

Can any of these open source solutions be configured to work as a workflow (ECO) system as well as a bug tracker? Right now we are using Problem Tracker (Problem Crapper) for both and think we can do better. Jira has been suggested but I would like to offer up some open source products. Cheerio, DR

Maybe you already get a hint to this http://ifdefined.com/bugtrackernet.html[^] I like it. It has evrrything we need, and the development on this project isn't dead.
