No one has encountered the "bug". Quite a few have encountered RobotLimit.

I hate it when people toss the word bug around without investigating
anything.

Despite being offended, I answered your question. As I said,
RobotLimit. Increase it. Or have a 30 second pause between clicks every
100 pages or so.

When I mentioned investigation, I meant that this question is answered in
the FAQ, the mail list archives, and in Bugzilla. It is being addressed
to exclude admins from RobotLimit in 4.7.

Please don't use the word bug without investigation. I pay attention to
bugs, and I don't like looking for the word and finding that I have been
unduly exercised. Thank you.

If you find something you think is a bug, please investigate it and
then enter it in Bugzilla *if it isn't already there*. If you think it
is something that should be corrected even if you find a workaround,
enter it as an enhancement. We do pay attention to Bugzilla quite closely,
and we do pay attention to enhancement requests. But I have a problem with
ones fired from the hip.

I apologize. It isn't in the latest version of the FAQ, nor could I
find it in Bugzilla. I will find out what is going on with the FAQ,
which doesn't appear to have any new questions since June.

It works on the honor system. Please forward this message to everyone
you know, and delete a bunch of your files at random.

I have 2 standalone systems that sit in 2 store locations. I have them
both set to 127.0.0.1 with no problems.

Okay, let's call it by the word "situation", if it'll more suit you. It
doesn't change the core of it - when you're clicking on a link in the
cart, at random times the browser responds "host 127.0.0.1 not found", and
viewing the sorce html, indeed all links contain 127.0.0.1 as a host name.
And if you're so sure that no one encountered it, then I'll be the first.

Thank you, and I didn't mean any offence, sorry if it looked this way. I
didn't get your words about RobotLimit as an answer to it. Thanks again.

Thanks again. And while we are on the Bugzilla subject, here is one more
issue I wished to mention. It's about how the chain_cost subroutine in
Data.pm. The following part seemed not to be working correctly:

if($passed_key) {
(! $key and $key = $passed_key)
or
(! $field and $field = $passed_key)
or
(! $table and $table = $passed_key);
}

It started working after I changed it to

if($passed_key) {
if($key !~ /\w/) {
$key = $passed_key;
}
elsif($field !~ /\w/) {
$field = $passed_key;
}
elsif($table !~ /\w/) {
$table = $passed_key;
}
}
