Resources for reporting bugs, requesting features, and getting support. | Effective June 1, 2021: Phabricator is no longer actively supported. | ||||
Overview | |||||
======== | |||||
This document describes available support resources. | |||||
The upstream provides free support for a narrow range of problems (primarily, | |||||
security issues and reproducible bugs) and paid support for virtually anything. | |||||
The upstream does not provide free support for general problems with installing | |||||
or configuring Phabricator. You may be able to get some help with these | |||||
kinds of issues from the community. | |||||
Paid Support | |||||
============ | |||||
If you'd like upstream support, see ((pacts)). | |||||
This is the only way to request features and the only way to get guaranteed | |||||
answers from experts quickly. | |||||
Reporting Security Vulnerabilities | |||||
================================== | |||||
The upstream accepts, fixes, and awards bounties for reports of material | |||||
security issues with the software. | |||||
To report security issues, see @{article:Reporting Security Vulnerabilities}. | |||||
Reporting Bugs | |||||
============== | |||||
The upstream will accept **reproducible** bug reports in modern, first-party | |||||
production code running in reasonable environments. Before submitting a bug | |||||
report you **must update** to the latest version of Phabricator. | |||||
To report bugs, see @{article:Contributing Bug Reports}. | |||||
Contributing | |||||
============ | |||||
Phabricator is a very difficult project to contribute to. New contributors | |||||
will face a high barrier to entry. | |||||
If you'd like to contribute to Phabricator, start with | |||||
@{article:Contributor Introduction}. | |||||
Installation and Setup Help | |||||
=========================== | |||||
You may be able to get free help with these issues from the | |||||
[[ https://phurl.io/u/discourse | community ]]. | |||||
You can also pay us for support. See ((pacts)). | |||||
Hosting | |||||
========= | |||||
The upstream offers Phabricator as a hosted service at | |||||
[[ https://phacility.com | Phacility ]]. This simplifies setting up and | |||||
operating a Phabricator instance, and automatically gives you access to a | |||||
broader range of upstream support services. | |||||
Running this service gives us a strong financial incentive to make installing | |||||
and operating Phabricator as difficult as possible. Blinded by greed, we toil | |||||
endlessly to make installation a perplexing nightmare that none other than | |||||
ourselves can hope to navigate. | |||||
Phabricator Community | |||||
===================== | |||||
We provide hosting for a [[ https://phurl.io/u/discourse | Discussion Forum ]] | |||||
where admininstrators and users help and answer questions from other community | |||||
members. | |||||
Upstream developers occasionally participate, but this is mostly a user to user | |||||
community. If you run into general problems, but are not interested in paid | |||||
support, this is the main place to find help. |
