actually it shorts my urls to integers directly and then maps them to bugzilla bug ids.

I think the URL encoded brackets ([]) were causing a problem.  I hit the bugzilla link below, copied the text into the shortener, and it returned this:

Did you change anything? It works, but I don't see [] in my url.. wait %5B, there it is..

Thanks.

Got another url that is not working:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&chfield=%5BBug%20creation%5D&chfieldfrom=-7&chfieldto=Now&columnlist=priority%2Ccomponent%2Ctarget_milestone%2Cresolution%2Cshort_desc%2Copendate&component=Error%20Reports&f1=short_desc&known_name=Error%20Reports%20Open%2C%20New%20-2d&list_id=10242451&o1=regexp&product=Recommenders.Incubator&query_based_on=Error%20Reports%20Open%2C%20New%20-2d&query_format=advanced&v1=%5C%5B.%2Aplatform.%2A%5C%5D

I believe our servers are protecting themselves against the encoded characters in your URL.

BAD: chfield=%5BBug%20creation%5D
GOOD: chfield=[Bug creation]

BAD: v1=%5C%5B.%2Aplatform.%2A%5C%5D
GOOD: v1=\[.*platform.*\]





If I copy your URL from the address location of firefox (which is not encoded), and paste it into the shortener, it works as expected.

Please do not submit URL-encoded characters to the shortener.
