| Note that it is technically possible to install Mantis without having shell access to the webserver. You will need to untar/gunzip all files locally and transfer them to the server individually. You will also need a way to setup the MySQL database on the server (e. g. Confixx, phpMyAdmin). |

3. Next we will create the necessary database tables. Make sure you have
created the database ahead of time. You should know your mysql username and password as well.
-> how do I create the database? |

Your webspace must include mySQL databases for using it, free webspace or the small, private ones often don't.
If yes, login to the admin panel of your hoster and look around for a mySQL database configuration etc. pp.
good luck

If your ISP provides phpMyAdmin as MySQL management interface, you can add the tables etc using following steps:
1. Navigate to the database you created,
2. Click 'SQL' tab,
3. In 'Location of the textfile:', paste the path to sql/db_generate.sql on your system,
4. In 'Compression:', select 'None',
5. Click the 'Go' button.
All naccessary tables are created.

I have had an issue with runnin Mantis 0.19.1 on MySQL 4.1 on a Windows 2000 Server.
The error I was getting was on the admin/check.php page were "Opening connection to database " was BAD.
I tried to go to the mantis/login.php page and got a MySQL #1251 error.
After doing a load of googling I found that I had a client mismatch. There is an issue with password length.
I had to change my Mysql ini file (my.ini) and include the line under
[mysqld]
old-password = 1
I then re-cycled my mysql service I also connected using the command line interface as root
i.e.
mysql -uroot -pXXX
I then ran
mysql>SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = old_password('ABC');
when I tried the admin/check.php page again I had a lovely green GOOD next to my "Opening connection to database " check.
Hope this helps.

To create the database manually (if you have shell access) do this:
mysqladmin create mantis -u root -p
That will create the database
Log into the mysql database to add a user with access to the new mantis database:
mysql mysql -u root -p
> GRANT select,update,insert,delete,create on mantis.* to mantis@localhost identified by 'ASekRetPassword'; |

I am having trouble running the mantis. I have mantis 0.19.2, MySql 4.1.8 and PHP 5.0.3 all running on IIS5.0 with windows 2000 server.
After configuring PHP, if I run the <? phpinfo() ?> file I get long list of config. information. So I know php works. After installing MySQL, I can create databases. But when I try to connect to a database from php, I can't. If I run ..mantis/admin/check.php I get the following.
You have PHP 5.0.3
----------------------------
Tryting to connect to database in [localhost] using user [root]
-----------------------------
I see something similar to above and that's it. If I comment $link = @db_connect (.....) line, I get a list items with "good" in it except the database part.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks |

Probably must set in config_inc.php
$g_hostname = "localhost";
$g_db_username = "aquion";
$g_db_password = "...";
$g_database_name = "aquion";
it wrote "[root]" when I forgot username |

| PHP 5.x Windows binaries DO NOT currently come with MySQL support. If you're getting errors with the /admin/check.php page stopping after the "Opening connection to database..." line, or a "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect()" error, either revert to the PHP 4.x binaries or download and compile the source for PHP 5 with MySQL support. |

PHP5 binaries for Windows are OK, you have to modify the php.ini and load the drivers for mysql (take a look at php.ini). At the moment the binaries of PHP5 doesn't work with mysql 4.1 or 5, but with mysql 4 works fine.

I am getting the same error as Siena:
"Your account may be disabled or blocked or the username/password you entered is incorrect."
First, I logged into Mantis using the default administrator, created another admin account, and deleted administrator. The delete process seemed to have ended abnormally. After the delete, a page came up that said only "Mantis" at the top--no other content. I tried to refresh and was kicked back to the login page. When I tried to log in as the new admin, I got the above error.
By the way, it appears the administrator is gone from the mantis_user_table, and it appears that the new user is present and has an "enabled" field set to 1.
Is there some DB field I can flip to get in? Is there a quickie patch I can apply to a php file? |

the default user/pass (as in 0.19.2) is:

or check out the last line of sql/db_generate.sql to find the password. |

The mysql-connect problem in my case was that i have the mysql.sock file under a different directory (not /tmp/mysql). (Take a look into the my.cnf File)
Editing the php.ini as follows will solve the problem:
mysql.default_socket = <yourdir>/mysql.sock

I have already installed my web server (Apache2), PHP5 and MySQL4.1. Everything seems to work properly, then I have downloaded the latest version of Mantis, and have tried to install it, but I get no results.
I have created a database (as told in point 3 of this manual), and finally I have changed the configuration file (config_inc.php).
I can´t run the admin/check.php file, I only can edit it with notepad or internet explorer...
Where do I have to copy the Mantis files? On a separeted directory?
Do I have to make any other changes on PHP files?
Thanx for your help in advance |

I was having the problem "PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in C:\\mantis\\core\\adodb\\drivers\\adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 338".
I checked php.ini and the line "extension=php_mysql.dll" was comented. That's why it wasn't working the connection. |

Better than renaming the installed directory, just make a symlink - when it's time to upgrade you can then just install the new version and change the symlink. Eg:
ln -s mantis-0.19.2/ Mantis

I installed 1.0.0a3 in a new folder, the install procedure went fine. Database is created with all tables ok.
But when I try to access http://server:1234/mantis_yeni/login_page.php I always get the following error...
I'm a PHP newbie but this looks like a db connection problem. I checked config_inc.php and everything seems fine (the installation procedure would've crashed otherwise)
Fatal error: 401 in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\mantis_yeni\core\database_api.php on line 109
Any ideas?

Ty_temp,
I have had the same problem. I haven't had a lot of time to look into it. Let me know if you figure it out. I am running Win 2k on one server and linux 7 on the other. I have the same error on both.
I also created the tables manually. I do get a 'pink' bad for the MD5 support though I'm not sure why. md5 support is standard with PHP.

I completed the installation, created the database objects and everything looks good but on accessing it returns blank page. There is no code beind that page. /admin/check.php reports everything O.K except for " register_globals - WARNING" and a note about file upload size. I put in phpinfo() in the index.php and it shows all php variables. I'm lost...
any help is appreciated.

I want to use mantis 1.03 on wamp with correct php and mysql (no pwd to acces mysql). when i check my config with "admin/install.php", i have all "good" but "Checking that configuration file can be created".
Then, when I go to "index.php" at the root of my server, I get "Fatal error: 401 in c:\wamp\www\mantis\core\database_api.php on line 109".
If I understand how all of these things wok, I'm not a bloody killer in all these things. Anyone can help ? |

This is my first try of mantis 1.0.rc1
I use php5.3 / mysql 4.1 / win xp home
Some comments:
- if creation of accounts requires mail-function, you might check for those before installation
- the default-administration-password should be written somewhere (just found it in the above comments)
- It would be very convinient to link a page or give some hints how I can install the mail-functions on my system
The rest is just fine. Excellent work!

I am trying to install Mantis onto my server.
I have no shell access so I had untar the archive on my windows system.
I granted all the proper database access permissions to mantis and the installation seem to be fine.
However, when try to login, after I type in the user and password I get this error
SYSTEM WARNING: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by
right after in the brackets I get the location of the config_inc.php file that I had to create because mantis was unable to.
Anybody has any suggestion to solve this problem ? |

Using Linux, if you are getting this problem:
1. " Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() "
or
2. The test is failing for " Checking PHP support for database type " for mantis/admin/install.php
then do this to fix it:
(1) Find the file php.ini which is in your apache directory (suggestion: /etc/php4/apache2/php.ini)
(2) find the section:
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Dynamic Extensions ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
(3) and uncomment or add:
extension=mysql.so
the same applies for the gd extension (if you would like to use it):
extension=gd.so
(4) restart apache (etc/init.d/apache2 restart) and thats it

I have login/password root/root and admin/admin in MySQL

but I always get the message in red when I click on install/upgrade Database button :

database is not supported by PHP. Check that it has been compiled into your server.

When I try to run mantis I got the following several times for different line and php files:

Anyone has an idea what it means?

Hello, everyone.
I'm having problem with mantis (0.19.3 & 1.0.0rc2) not redirecting at all and showing blank page.
I looked into the index.php file (there is an if/else for redirecting to login_page.php and main_page.php)
Both versions have the same problem.
If I entered the page directly (host/login_page.php), it shows the login page). After I enter my admin account, Mantis redirected me to blank page on login.php.
I set this up in Windows 2003 with Apache 2, PHP 5.0.4, MySQL 4.1.
Great product.
Why does it need to too many redirects?
Is the PHP version/configuration is a problem in itself?
Please advise me on showing this problem? |

If you get mailer problems when first setting up accounts then you can add this line to config_inc.php and not have to deal with setting up system mailer daemons:

I discovered another fix for what seems to be a common problem with PHP and MySQL (...after a VERY large number of hair-pulling hours reading this thread and every other thread for my own version of the problem...)
For the error:
Opening connection to database on host [localhost] with username [root]
Giving result: BAD
Where the underlying error is:
mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)
I found a casual remark on http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/php/2004/02/19/php_foundations.html that lead to a solution. The remark was (and all credit to the author John Coggeshall):
Note: when specifying a server using the hostname, it is worthy to note that the MySQL extension in PHP will attempt to connect using a local socket (or named pipe in Windows) instead of via TCP/IP, if the hostname is of the form localhost, or localhost:port is used. Although this is generally desirable (and recommended), you can also force a TCP/IP connection by using the IP address 127.0.0.1 instead.
As soon as I changed $g_hostname = "127.0.0.1", my database went GREEN!!! (wooo-hooo!)
My environment:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 - RHEL 3 - 2.4.21-4.EL
MySQL Server 5.0.18-standard
PHP 4.3.2-26 (BTW - to get the php-mysql-4.3.2-26.ent package, I had to log in to Red Hat Network and download it under my Red Hat subscription - up2date could not get it on its own for some reason..)

I have upgraded from 0.19.4 to 1.0.0

(Table mantis_project_hierarhy was not created)
Here what I did:
Created new installation, pumped all data from old (0.19.4) DB (just INSERT) into new (1.0.0).
I was not successful with install.php (!). So I ask it to show SQL statements and perform they all by 'hands'. |

I have followed the instructions in detail, and completed the installation, getting the report 'Install was completed successfully'. However, when I click the 'Continue to log into Mantis' I get redirected back to the install page.
The only problems reported during install were:
"POSSIBLE PROBLEM
Please ensure that you installation supports the new password scheme used in MySQL 4.1.0 and later. See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/password-hashing.html."
and not being able to update the config_inc.php file, which I updated manually.
I can check the install using check.php and can use the admin functions to [ Check your installation ][ Upgrade your installation ][ Modify stylesheets ][ System Utilities ].
I have tried typing in the URL for login_page.php, login.php, among some others, but these all re-direct me back to install.php.
Am I doing something wrong? |

While it is entirely possible that I am not the brightest candle in many respects, I was able to install MySQL using the very nice installation package for OS X (in my case, 10.4.4 running on a new 20" iMac 2.1-GHz G5 [iSight] with 2.5GB of memory and a 250GB 7,200RPM HD). I was able to do this installation of MySQL, because in keeping with stellar style of Apple installations, it required me to do absolutely NOTHING beyond launching the installation package. This is the way it works over here in the Apple universe--and, this is great when you have virtually no idea what "sudo" means (even though you have a university degree in Computer Science).
I also found a PHP installation package for OS X, and it was very simple to install--since, again, all it required me to do was launch the setup.
I like things like this, since I truly have no interest in knowing what "sudo" is or what it does. Knowing that my Apple computer actually has something called a "root" is a bit frightening, really--especially, considering that I switched from Windows to the Mac just under five years go, mostly because Microsoft entered a completely different universe from the one with which I was quite happy, and Windows computers have a "root".
WHY?
When you get an Apple computer, everything just works--and, the computer does not require you to do busy activities that involve such things as "sudo" and "root".
NO!
If the folks doing Mantis have time to find an Apple-friendly way to get what looks to be a truly marvelous bug tracking system installed, then fabulous.
Am I missing something obvious?
From my perspective, I cannot see how installing Manitis should be any more complex than installing MySQL. There is an Apache webserver on my iMac (although I have no idea where it is or how to do anything with it), and now I have MySQL (which I know is working, since I was able to do some queries on a few of the tables) and in theory there should be PHP 4.3.11 on it, as well (although, how should I know, since all I did was run the installation program, which [a] ran and [b] finished).
Some of the instructions suggest putting the Mantis stuff in my webserver space, but where might that be?
Is this something everyone is supposed to know?
I have no idea, really!
Fabulous!
What else do I have to do?
NOTHING!
Anything that is more complex than running a simple, fully contained, and sufficient Apple-friendly installtion program which does everything is NOT something I can do at present--and, since there does not appear to be one of these Apple-friendly setups for Mantis, then I need to look somewhere else (except that all the bug tracking systems that run in the Apple universe appear to be just as difficult to install, because although they are [a] easy to install, this ease of installation occurs only after [b] you perform two or three pages of low-level commands and instructions written in some strange language from a planet located in the Neopolitan Nebula).
Just a suggestion, but perhaps it mskes sense to add some smarts to the Mantis installation procedure (at least for Apple folks)?
Thanks!

WARNING - register_globals - WARNING
You have register_globals enabled in PHP, which is considered a security risk. Since version 0.18, Mantis has no longer relied on register_globals being enabled. PHP versions later that 4.2.0 have this option disabled by default. For more information on the security issues associated with enabling register_globals, see this page. If you have no other PHP applications that rely on register_globals, you should add the line
register_globals = Off
to your php.ini file; if you do have other applications that require register_globals, you could consider disabling it for your Mantis installation by adding the line
php_value register_globals off
to a .htaccess file or a <Directory> or <Location> block in your apache configuration file. See the apache documentation if you require more information.
File Uploads
File uploads are ENABLED.
File uploads will be stored in the DATABASE.
The following size settings are in effect. Maximum upload size will be whichever of these is SMALLEST.
PHP variable 'upload_max_filesize': 16000000 bytes
PHP variable 'post_max_size': 16000000 bytes
Mantis variable 'max_file_size': 5000000 bytes
There may also be settings in your web server and database that prevent you from uploading files or limit the maximum file size. See the documentation for those packages if you need more information. Your current settings will most likely need adjustments to the PHP max_execution_time or memory_limit settings, the MySQL max_allowed_packet setting, or equivalent.
Testing Email
You can test the mail() function with this form. Just check the recipient and click submit. If the page takes a very long time to reappear or results in an error then you will need to investigate your php/mail server settings. Note that errors can also appear in the server error log. More help can be found at the PHP website.

Standard DES: Yes
Extended DES: No
MD5: Yes
Blowfish: No |

HI,
I have trouble installing Mantis on Red Hat 9
I'm able to get to the first page ( Checking Installation... - here both are green, ). After I enter the details in Installation Options section and I click on 'Install/Upgrade Database' the 'The page cannot be displayed' error is displayed.
My Environment:
PHP 4.2.2
Mysql 3.23.54
Apache 2.0.40
I've tested with Phpinfo() and it gives proper results.
Can someone let me know how I can solve this poblem?
Thanks,
Ed

It is possible to install Mantis even if your host only provides one database (as many cheap hosts do), though it's not highly recommended.
All you need to do is provide your user credentials when it asks for the admin, and then provide the name of the existing database as the database name (in phpMyAdmin it can be found by clicking the databases link on the front page).
I'm not sure about any potential problems this will cause, but I have been using it basically for the past few weeks and there seems to be no problems. |

To the person who asked above, installing Mantis on Mac OS X is a breeze. I'm going to discuss about the client version, not the server version. For reference, I am using a G5 Dual 2 Ghz machine running Mac OS X 10.4.7.
I'm going to assume you have PHP and a database (I used Postgresql) installed already. As mentioned, it is very easy to install those.
Apache is built into Mac OS X. All that is required is to turn on Personal Web Sharing in the Sharing System Preference. Do this now.
To install Mantis, download the version you want (I used 1.0.5) and drop the file onto Stuffit Expander. A folder is the result. Rename the folder to exactly "mantis". Move the "mantis" folder into /Library/WebServer/Documents from the Finder. You are now done!
To access it, open up Safari (or Firefox or whatever) and type in the following URL:
<http://localhost/mantis/>
So to install just type:
<http://localhost/mantis/admin/install.php>
If you have problems, just ask here. |

I installed mantis without problem on a linux server (hosted on aruba.it). But even if I did not get any error I was unable to make Mantis send any emails.
The problem was that my server titi.com refused to send email with address different from xxx@titi.com.
The solution of the problem was simply to add in the config_inc.php file the line
$g_from_email ='info@titi.com';
so that the email sent by mantis had a domain name compatible with that one of my server.
I hope this can be usefull also to other people!
Regards, gwl |

It is advertised that Mantis supports PostGres but as I see running the install.php I get a BAD issue saying that 'database not supported by PHP. Check that it has been compiled in your server.'
Any comments on this ? |

Hi This will explain How to install in One step.
I took 6 hrs & searched over the net. At last i found some info which i am posting here.
You just install XAMPP for win32. This will install Apache2.2.3,MySQL5.0.2 & PHP. It will also configures. You no need to anything. except clicking on Next Next 
After successfull installation. Copy downloaded mantis under %XAMPP_DIR%\htdocs folder.
Point your browser to http://localhost/mantis/admin/install.php
That's it.
The no default password for root user of installed MYSQL. Means empty.
Thanks

Hello,
my host doesn't allow to create a database, thus I would like to just generate the tables as part of an existing db. Unfortunately there is no sql-file any more in the installation package. Is it possible to extract the sql statements from the php-files in order to start them from the mysql administration shell?
thanks a lot for any help

I HAVE SUCCESFULLY INSTALLED on a Debian Linux box.
Follow instructions exactly as explained in the supplied file in "docs" directory. Its too easy!
If during install occurr a "lost connection during query" error, try switch "dbserver" config.php var to server name instead of its ip address.
be sure to provide correct MySQL client .
hope this heeelps
