Wrong category showing in logs

jcoehoorn · 01-06-2012, 06:56 AM

I was looking at last night's logs, and I saw some sites blocked in the "News" category. I don't block the news category on any rack: I don't even log it.

So I dug deeper, and I finally found out what happened. While students are gone I was playing with the R-Rated category for testing some things, and had it temporarily blocked. Sites blocked with this category were listed as members of the "News" category in reports, and the block page also only lists the News category.

What's going on here?

I believe this is a know issue where sites that belong of multiple categories are logged under the wrong category. Supposed to be fixed in a future release.

Bug 9280 Block page not showing the same reason as the event log is fixed in 9.2 which is in development/testing phase. We should have a beta soon.
