"Does this bug affect you" error message

Asked by Torquil Sørensen

This is not really a question, but more of a wishlist report for the bug report system here.

On the page:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/wicd/+bug/228578

I tried to specify that the bug affects me. However, I then got the following error message in a popup (reproduced below). The error was fixed by me allowing to send the REFERER, but a simple error message would be nice :-)

    Error: Launchpad system error fieldset.collapsed div, fieldset div.collapsed {display: none;} fieldset.collapsible div, fieldset div.collapsed {display: block;} var LP = { cache: {}, links: {} }; var cookie_scope = '; Path=/; Secure; Domain=.launchpad.net'; // Define a global YUI sandbox that should be used by everyone. var LPS = YUI({ // Don't try to fetch the loader module. bootstrap: false, // Don't try to fetch CSS files. fetchCSS: false, // Turn off combo loading. combine: false, // For paranoia, set a low timeout to not wait on loading a resource. timeout: 50 }); LPS.use('node', 'event-delegate', 'lp', 'lp.app.links', function(Y) { Y.on('load', function(e) { sortables_init(); initInlineHelp(); Y.lp.activate_collapsibles(); activateFoldables(); activateConstrainBugExpiration(); Y.lp.app.links.check_valid_lp_links(); }, window); // Hook up the function that dismisses the help window if we click // anywhere outside of it.

There is no REFERER header present. This can be caused by configuring your browser to block REFERER headers. Unblock REFERER headers for launchpad.net and try again, or see the FAQ Why does Launchpad require a REFERER header? for more information. You can also join the #launchpad IRC support channel on irc.freenode.net for further assistance. • Take the tour • Read the guide © 2004-2011 Canonical Ltd. • Terms of use • Contact Launchpad Support • System status • r13085 (get the code) LP.links['me'] = '/~torquil';
