  well if you have not given any custom setting then it would be
  #-Link-Snipped-# but before test let me know what you see when you type "httpslashslashlocalhost" if you have apache then everything is ok

  Did you install it using XAMPP? If yes, see the location of folder in which bugzilla is installed inside htdocs folder.
  
  Does this help?

  hey i don't know what is custome setting. also i did not configure anything. i tried local host but it is not working.
  hey, i have no clue about the software. I'll tell you what, i was asked to raise a request and i did, the NSS guys here installed it in my system. Now they also don't exactly know how to access it. I am supposed to use it to log defects in it.
  Kindly, could you give me the complete procedure.

  I didn't quite get you when you said you 'installed' in on your system. I think Bugzilla is installed on some other machine and you are only accessing it through your browser.
  
  If that is the case, you'll have to connect to the server on which Bugzilla is installed.

  Now its matter of just firing a command which will refresh/repair all the bugzilla directories/files. Try to search that command on google . After firing that command when you will launch Bugzilla it will open properly.
  
  If I will find that command anywhere I will post that. May be this information will help you.

  If you're sure, it should be available on 'localhost/
  If you know the name of the folder in which bugzilla is installed; try typing following in your browser -
  
  #-Link-Snipped-#)
  
  If that does not work -
  
  #-Link-Snipped-#
  
  Typically it would be
  
  #-Link-Snipped-#

  Buddy, I faced the same problem when I installed Bugzilla on my system. And I am sure there is a command which will repair all the bugizlla files and directories. After that your bugzilla will be all set to roar.
  
  I am not able to recall that command 😁

  Hello CrazyBoy,
  Can you briefly for what purpose this Bugzilla is used.
  I know up to some extent(almost negligible) it is a bug tracker.
  right?

  @ Ravi - Yup. Its mainly a bug tracker.
  
  Bugzilla is a bug- or issue-tracking system. Bug-tracking systems allow individual or groups of developers effectively to keep track of outstanding problems with their product. Bugzilla was originally written by Terry Weissman in a programming language called TCL, to replace a rudimentary bug-tracking database used internally by Netscape Communications. Terry later ported Bugzilla to Perl from TCL, and in Perl it remains to this day. Most commercial defect-tracking software vendors at the time charged enormous licensing fees, and Bugzilla quickly became a favorite of the open-source crowd (with its genesis in the open-source browser project, Mozilla). It is now the de-facto standard defect-tracking system against which all others are measured.
  
  Bugzilla boasts many advanced features. These include:
  

  • Powerful searching
  • User-configurable email notifications of bug changes
  • Full change history
  • Inter-bug dependency tracking and graphing
  • Excellent attachment management
  • Integrated, product-based, granular security schema
  • Fully security-audited, and runs under Perl's taint mode
  • A robust, stable RDBMS back-end
  • Web, XML, email and console interfaces
  • Completely customisable and/or localisable web user interface
  • Extensive configurability
  • Smooth upgrade pathway between versions

  @ Y-Not - any success in finding that command? If yes share that with everyone.
