Question

I'm looking for a free bug tracking software (hosted preferably, as my host doesn't allow me to use ssh, so i can't really install anything). What i want to do with it, is put a form on my website, and allow my beta testers to send in bugs (for now, only beta testers know of the site, so no login required).

I do have PHP and MySql, but all the software i came across needed SSH someplace during the installation. I tried Mantis, bugzilla and fogbugz.

I tried fogbugz, but i can't find any way to let users send in new bugs without logging in. Also, their XML api does not seem to allow you to add new bugs through it.

So what i basically need is:
-Bugtracking software
-Free
-Hosted
-Ability to send in bugs through either
1. Interface on their host, without having to log in
2. Ability to embed, without having to log in
3. Something like an XML Api, which allows me to send in new bugs

Does anyone know of one that can do these things, or have other tips?

Was it helpful?

Solution

If you have normal hosting with just PHP/MySQL and FTP access, you could try to install the bug tracking software on our own linux box and then just FTP transfer the php files, maybe after you manually edit some setup files. You will also need to specify the connection to the database, but then use exactly the same setup as you normally use when you connect the database from PHP.

OTHER TIPS

Have a look at OnTime11 from axosoft. It's hosted, free for 2 users and looks extremely polished with a great feature set. There's a slick 2 min demo link on the homepage.
