All,

The python-bugzilla implementation is great but I have one issue that I cannot seem to find resolution on. Was hoping that someone here could shed some light on the situation. I have attempted a few different ways and upon review of the source I don't think* what I am attempting to do is supported in the version I am using (1.1.0)

When I attempt to build a complex query, the url_to_query method returns a dictionary object that appears to contain the appropriate values. However, when attempting to query the remote bugzilla instance an error message is displayed and no results are returned.  I believe this is due to the use of the "advanced" query format. The error message is complaining about the use of "v1" and sometimes "o2". Is it the use of Regex ? Is it my bugzilla instance ?

Message and code snips below.

--- Error Message ---
Fault: <Fault 53: 'v1 is not a valid parameter for the Bugzilla::Bug::match function.'>

--- Error Message ---
Fault: <Fault 53: 'o2 is not a valid parameter for the Bugzilla::Bug::match function.'>


--- CODE SNIP ---
q_url="https://bugzilla.local/query.cgi?bug_status=New&bug_status=Accepted&bug_status=Reopened&f1=cf_custom_field_here&f2=bug_id&f3=alias&o1=regexp&o2=greaterthan&o3=notsubstring&query_format=advanced&v1=^%24&v2=410000&v3=-"

Returns the values in a dictionary with this command --
bz.url_to_query(q_url)

{'bug_status': ['New', 'Accepted', 'Reopened'],
 'f1': 'cf_custom_field_here',
 'f2': 'bug_id',
 'f3': 'alias',
 'o1': 'regexp',
 'o2': 'greaterthan',
 'o3': 'notsubstring',
 'query_format': 'advanced',
 'v1': '^$',
 'v2': '410000',
 'v3': '-'}

This is the actual code that will produce the error message. bz is my bugzilla connection.
""" bz.query(bz.url_to_query(q_url)) """. As you can see, I am using the "advanced" formatting.  If I don't include the "f*, v*, o*" parameters queries return a result set.

Let me know if you need more details to help figure out this issue.

Thanks

Mildred.
