I'm not sure is this issue is not dulpicite, but I didn't find original issue. We get at webmaster@netbeans.org this report: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello, I just tried to join the Netbeans debuggerjpda module in order to report an issue and was tripped up by some incorrect information in the help pages. http://www.netbeans.org/docs/ProjectMembershipRequest.html says to "click Join This Module on the far right side of the screen in the Module Home page" in order to be able to submit a request. There is no such link on a module home page. There is, however, the "Join" link in the "Download News Join Search Sitemap" navigation block on the right side, so I (mistakenly) thought that was it. Clicking that one always dumps me back at the log-in screen with the comment that I have insufficient permissions to access the requested page. I finally did locate the "Join This Module" link on the Members page of the project and all is now well. Given the amount of time I spent on this (not even counting additional grey hairs ;), however, could the help page be corrected please? Sincerely, Sven Coenye ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Please fix this docs. Thank you -Marek
Hi Marek, We'll take a look. Thanks, Kristen
Sven, many thanks for the report, and apologies for the problems. There are really 2 problems reported here : 1) "Join this module" link missing from module home page; duplicate of issue 16145. 2) "Insufficient permissions" nonsense when landing on Join page if already logged in : duplicate of issue 18462. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 16145 ***
