Support and Feedback

There are a number of ways to get help if you run into problems using Komodo.

Documentation

Have a look through this user guide to see if there is any relevant documentation. Use the Search field in the top right corner of the Komodo Help window to search the table of contents.

Komodo Forums

Komodo developers monitor the Komodo forums for issues. You can search the site to see if other users have encountered a similar problem.

RSS feeds are available for all forums and articles.

Komodo IRC Channel

Komodo developers are usually in the Komodo IRC channel (mostly 9am-5pm PST time), on the irc://irc.mozilla.org#komodo channel.

You can also use a web irc client, like Kiwi IRC.

Reporting Bugs

If you have found a bug, we’d like to know about it. First, query our on-line bug database to see if your bug has already been reported:
