[Bug 2033653] Re: can't report crash in /var/crash with ubuntu-bug, "Network problem"

[Benjamin Drung]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. Running into a series of bugs isn't the user experience
to be desired.

The HTTP error Bad gateway should be error code 502. Both error codes
502 and 503 indicate a problem on the server side. So this is not a bug
of the Apport client code, but the Launchpad server. So I am re-
assigning it to launchpad.

Title:
  can't report crash in /var/crash with ubuntu-bug, "Network problem"

Status in Launchpad itself:
  New

Bug description:
  Because of bug #2033652 I was trying to report a gdb crash from
  /var/crash. It spent a long time uploading data, then and then popped
  up an error dialog:

  Network problem
  Cannot connect to crash database, please check your internet connection.
  HTTP Error ???: Bad gateway

  (I don't remember the error code exactly)

  I tried again and had a slightly different result: "HTTP Error 503:
  Service Unavailable" instead of "Bad gateway".

  So... First gimp crashes (bug #2031907). I can't report the crash
  properly for it because gimp is wired to catch segfaults instead of
  letting the OS handle them. Then gdb crashes (bug #2033652) while I'm
  trying to debug the gimp issue. And then I can't report the gdb crash
  properly because of THIS issue.

  Jolly good all around.
