→‎Your Own Installation
If you want to install the API proxy on your own machine for your own Bugzilla, you will need:
* the <b>latest </b> stable 3.4.x or , 3.6.x or 4.0.x point release of Bugzilla (many features will not work on 3.2); and* to be using UTF-8 (this is the default on new installations).; and* To to have the necessary optional modules for XML-RPC (e.g. Test::Taint).
Then, install a copy of the API software - it does not have to be on the same machine. See the INSTALL file in the repository for some installation hints; feel free to send me tips from your experience.
hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/webtools/bzapi bzapi
===Extension (or Patches)===
