You found a bug in Lazarus and you want to report it to the developers. This page tells you how to do that.

Enter the bug in the Lazarus Bug Tracker

  • Go to the Lazarus bug tracker
  • You need to be logged in to make bug reports. If you are logged in as guest, you need to log out first (Guests cannot make reports, only watch them). If you already have an account go to the login page, otherwise create a new account on the sign up page.
  • After having logged in go to the Report Issue page. Fill in as much as you can and know. The more specific, the better.
  • Important fields are the OS and Product fields and the steps to reproduce this issue. If an issue cannot be reproduced by the developers, they cannot start to fix it.
  • If your bug is in a certain component in the LCL, it is useful to upload a small application that shows the bug.
  • If there is some graphical error, it is useful to upload a (partial) screenshot (in jpeg or png, not bmp format).
  • If it is a crash, try to create a backtrace. See Creating a Backtrace with GDB for more info.
