Bugzilla からのデータのインポート

JIRA can import your bugs from Bugzilla. Currently, the importer is compatible with Bugzilla 2.20 and above. Users of older Bugzilla versions will need to first upgrade the database tables to a supported version with Bugzilla's checksetup.pl script.

Due to a change to the database schema in Bugzilla versions 2.22.2 and later, attachments are not imported into JIRA versions prior to JIRA 3.13.x. For details please see JRA-12389. Please upgrade to JIRA 3.13+ if this is a problem for you.

The data from the Bugzilla database is appended to the existing data in JIRA. The tool imports the following data from the Bugzilla database:

課題

  • Attachments are extracted from the Bugzilla database and saved to disk.
  • Statuses, Bug Severity, Issue Types, and Resolutions in Bugzilla are mapped to the defaults in JIRA.
  • Statuses in Bugzilla are mapped to JIRA. Bugs in Bugzilla in the 'NEW', 'UNCONFIRMED', or 'ASSIGNED' status with no assignees are 'Open' in JIRA.
  • Issue Types of bugs from Bugzilla are all 'Bugs' or 'Improvements'.
  • Bug_Severity in Bugzilla is mapped to Priorities in JIRA. Bugs with 'ENHANCEMENT' severity in Bugzilla are treated as 'Improvement' issues with 'MINOR' Priority in JIRA. Note: if you have customized the Bugzilla list of severities, you will need to edit the Importer source and define the new mappings.
  • The first description for a bug in Bugzilla is stored as JIRA's Description. All other descriptions are stored as comments logged to that issue.
  • ユーザーが 1 つの Bugzilla 課題に対して 1 回以上投票すると、そのユーザーに対して JIRA の投票が保存されます。

  • Users are imported 'on demand', so users who have not interacted with the system in any way are not imported.
  • Bugzilla のパスワードは Bugzilla v2.16+ ではインポートされません (データベースでハッシュされます)。 Bugzilla ユーザーは JIRA への初回のログイン時にパスワードを電子メールで通知してもらう必要があります。
  • Bugzilla でユーザーの実名が保存されていない場合、電子メールアドレス (ログイン名) の "@" 文字の前の部分が JIRA でのフルネームとして取得されます。

    If you are using External User Management, the import process will not be able to create JIRA users; instead, the importer will give you a list of any new users that need to be created. You will need to create the users in your external user repository before commencing the import (this way, votes etc can be imported correctly).

    If you have a user limited license (e.g. personal license), any users you import over and above your user limit will be created in JIRA without permission to log in to JIRA. You will not be able to select which of your users are assigned login permissions under the user limit, when you perform the import. However, you can change this after the users are imported, by editing user permissions.

How to import from Bugzilla

Before you begin, please backup your JIRA data.

If you are connecting to an external database to import Bugzilla data, you need to configure this database to connect to JIRA before the import will work. Read Connecting JIRA to a Database for more information. Remember to restart JIRA in order to allow the application to pick up any changes.

  1. Bugzilla システムで Bugzilla の 'サニティーチェック' を実行し、データにエラーがないことを確認します。
  2. Make sure that the Bugzilla database you wish to import from is running on MySQL.
  3. Download and install the MySQL JDBC driver into JIRA. To do this, download the MySQL Connector/J driver. The package contains a file "mysql-connector-java-xxx.jar". Copy this to the common/lib/ directory in JIRA Standalone, or equivalent "lib" directory in your app server. Restart JIRA so the driver is loaded.
  4. In JIRA's default permission scheme (associated with newly imported projects), ensure that the 'Browse', 'Create' and 'Comment' permissions are granted to the group 'jira-users' (or a group with the 'JIRA Users' global permission ).
  5. Log in as a user with the 'JIRA System Administrators' global permission.
  6. Bring up the administration page by clicking either the 'Administration' link on the top bar or the title of the Administration box on the dashboard.
  7. On the panel on the left, under the title 'Import & Export', click 'External System Import'
  8. The 'Import Data' page will be displayed. Select 'Bugzilla'.
  9. You will now be prompted for connection details to Bugzilla's MySQL database:

    Set the JDBC URL, database username and password for your system. The JDBC URL is of the format:
    jdbc:mysql:host[:port]/databasename?parameters
    host is the server hosting the MySQL database which allows incoming TCP connections on port port (defaults to 3306). databasename is the MySQL database name (usually 'bugs').The database name, username and user password can usually be found in the 'localconfig' file in Bugzilla's root directory, or in /etc/bugzilla/.
  10. Click 'Next >>' to advance to the project selection page. If you have got the connection details wrong, you may have to wait about 30s for the connection attempt to time out.
  11. You will now be presented with a list of projects in Bugzilla:

    Select the projects you wish to import (even if there is only one - select it!), and set import options via the checkboxes (the default checkbox settings is correct for most users). Click 'Next >>' to proceed.
  12. You will now be prompted to choose a project key (the per-project prefix to attach to bug keys), and a project lead for each project to be imported. Important: do not use dashes or numbers in the project key!

    Click 'Import' when you are done to start the import. As imports frequently take a long time, you can watch the logs as they are generated by clicking the 'watch logs in separate window' link. Logs are also sent to stdout, and will appear in your app server's log:

Importing only new bugs (repeated imports)

It is possible to re-import a Bugzilla project, and have JIRA import only 'new' bugs not previously imported. This allows for a transition period in which the imported JIRA project can be trialled, but bugs still logged in Bugzilla need not be lost.

To import only new bugs, click the 'Import only new issues' checkbox in the importer.

Searching by Bugzilla ID

The Bugzilla importer creates a 'Bugzilla ID' custom field for imported issues, linking back to the original Bugzilla bug URL.


If you intend to use this, you will need to configure the URL to Bugzilla in jira-application.properties. The custom field can also be made to display just the ID (unlinked) in jira-application.properties. If you don't need this custom field, delete it or hide it.

The custom field is searchable, so you can search for JIRA issues by their old Bugzilla ID. There is also a portlet which lets you search by Bugzilla ID:

Importer Source code

The Bugzilla importer source code is available here. For some customisations you may wish to make, editing this source code is required, as described below. For users of JIRA Standalone, there is a mini build-system which you can use to quickly compile and test modifications.

Common Customisations

Importing custom severities, statuses and resolutions

Bugzilla has a standard set of severities, statuses and resolutions, but these can be augmented with new ones by editing a Bugzilla config file ('localconfig'). If your Bugzilla has custom statuses, JIRA will set the status of affected imported issues to "Open", and log a message ("... defaulting to JIRA status Open"). For other unknown fields (severities, resolutions) JIRA will just not set the field, which may cause problems later (eg. issues Resolved but without a resolution are listed as open in the standard filters).

To avoid problems, it is a good idea to check whether your Bugzilla uses any custom resolutions, statuses or severities:

mysql> select distinct(severity) from bugs;
+-------------+
| severity    |
+-------------+
| blocker     |
| critical    |
| enhancement |
| major       |
| minor       |
| normal      |
| trivial     |
+-------------+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> select distinct(resolution) from bugs;
+------------+
| resolution |
+------------+
| FIXED      |
| DUPLICATE  |
| WONTFIX    |
|            |
| LATER      |
| INVALID    |
| WORKSFORME |
| REMIND     |
+------------+
8 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> select distinct(bug_status) from bugs;
+-------------+
| bug_status  |
+-------------+
| RESOLVED    |
| CLOSED      |
| NEW         |
| ASSIGNED    |
| REOPENED    |
| VERIFIED    |
| UNCONFIRMED |
+-------------+
7 rows in set (0.00 sec)

(the above are all standard). If your bugs use anything non-standard, you will need to edit the mappings in BugzillaImportBean.java:

        static
        {
            // bugzilla's severities mapping to JIRA priorities
            priorityMap.put("blocker", "" + IssueFieldConstants.BLOCKER_PRIORITY_ID);
            priorityMap.put("critical", "" + IssueFieldConstants.CRITICAL_PRIORITY_ID);
            priorityMap.put("major", "" + IssueFieldConstants.MAJOR_PRIORITY_ID);
            priorityMap.put("normal", "" + IssueFieldConstants.MAJOR_PRIORITY_ID);
            priorityMap.put("enhancement", "" + IssueFieldConstants.MINOR_PRIORITY_ID);
            priorityMap.put("minor", "" + IssueFieldConstants.MINOR_PRIORITY_ID);
            priorityMap.put("trivial", "" + IssueFieldConstants.TRIVIAL_PRIORITY_ID);

            // bugzilla resolutions mapping to JIRA resolutions
            resolutionMap.put("", null);
            resolutionMap.put("FIXED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.FIXED_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("INVALID", "" + IssueFieldConstants.INCOMPLETE_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("WONTFIX", "" + IssueFieldConstants.WONTFIX_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("LATER", "" + IssueFieldConstants.WONTFIX_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("REMIND", "" + IssueFieldConstants.WONTFIX_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("DUPLICATE", "" + IssueFieldConstants.DUPLICATE_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("WORKSFORME", "" + IssueFieldConstants.CANNOTREPRODUCE_RESOLUTION_ID);
            resolutionMap.put("NEEDTESTCASE", "" + IssueFieldConstants.INCOMPLETE_RESOLUTION_ID);

            // bugzilla status mapping to JIRA status
            statusMap.put("UNCONFIRMED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.OPEN_STATUS_ID);
            statusMap.put("NEW", "" + IssueFieldConstants.OPEN_STATUS_ID);
            statusMap.put("ASSIGNED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.OPEN_STATUS_ID);
            statusMap.put("REOPENED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.REOPENED_STATUS_ID);
            statusMap.put("RESOLVED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.RESOLVED_STATUS_ID);
            statusMap.put("VERIFIED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.RESOLVED_STATUS_ID);
            statusMap.put("CLOSED", "" + IssueFieldConstants.CLOSED_STATUS_ID);

            // workflow Mappings
            wfStepMap.put("1", new Integer("1"));
            wfStepMap.put("2", new Integer("2"));
            wfStepMap.put("3", new Integer("3"));
            wfStepMap.put("4", new Integer("5"));
            wfStepMap.put("5", new Integer("4"));
            wfStepMap.put("6", new Integer("6"));

            wfStatusMap.put("1", "Open");
            wfStatusMap.put("3", "In Progress");
            wfStatusMap.put("4", "Reopened");
            wfStatusMap.put("5", "Resolved");
            wfStatusMap.put("6", "Closed");
        }
          

(Note: wfStepMap and wfStatusMap should usually not be touched, unless you are importing into project with a non-standard workflow).

Changing the imported username format

Bugzilla uses email addresses for usernames (eg. "joe@example.com"). You may wish to automatically strip everything after the '@' to form a shortened username ("joe"), or otherwise alter imported names (eg. read from a lookup table to conform to a company-wide standard). This requires editing the BugzillaImportBean source (see above ). The relevant code to modify is included in BugzillaImportBean.java, but commented out:

    /**
     * Given a Bugzilla 'profile' user record, infer a JIRA username from it.
     * In Bugzilla your username is your email address, and this will become your JIRA username, unless this method
     * is overridden to implement a different scheme.
     */
    protected String getUsernameFromBugzillaProfile(ResultSet bugzillaProfileResultSet)
            throws SQLException
    {
        return TextUtils.noNull(bugzillaProfileResultSet.getString("login_name")).toLowerCase().trim();

        // Alternatively, use the first part ('joe' in 'joe@company.com')
//        String name = bugzillaProfileResultSet.getString("login_name");
//        name = TextUtils.noNull(name).trim();
//        int i = name.indexOf("@");
//        if (i != -1) name = name.substring(0, i);
//        return name;
     }
