I am running the exact same configuration and get the same error.
Everything worked fine with MySQL but my customer wants SQL.
I have this same error when I want to consult the details from the only issue I have created in an empty database

another error:

• when a simple user try to logon, but can't beacause:
  Error received from database was #0: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid parameter number near for the query:
  SELECT p.id, p.name, ph.parent_id
  FROM mantis_project_table p
  LEFT JOIN mantis_project_user_list_table u
  ON p.id=u.project_id AND u.user_id=?
  LEFT JOIN mantis_project_hierarchy_table ph
  ON ph.child_id = p.id
  WHERE p.enabled = ? AND
  ( p.view_state=?
  OR (p.view_state=?
  AND
  u.user_id=? )
  )
  ORDER BY p.name

в файл tag_api.php строка 424 добавьте
if($t_subquery_results.length == 0)
$t_subquery_results[] = -1;
итого получаем:

        while( $row = db_fetch_array( $result ) ) {
            $t_subquery_results[] = (int)$row;
        }
        if($t_subquery_results.length == 0)
            $t_subquery_results[] = -1;
        $query = "SELECT id, name, description FROM $t_tag_table WHERE id IN ( " . implode( ', ', $t_subquery_results ) . ')';

Could this be caused by your using the PHP sqlsrv driver instead of the mssql one ? Please see 0011776

This is already fixed, but not released. You can try the latest git version from master-1.2.x .

MantisBT currently supports Mysql and has support for other database engines.

The support for other databases is known to be problematic.

Having implemented the current database layer into Mantis 10 years ago, I'm currently working on replacing the current layer.

If you are interested in using Mantis with non-mysql databases - for example, Oracle, PGSQL or MSSQL, and would be willing to help out testing the new database layer, please drop me an email at paul@mantisforge.org

In the meantime, I'd advise running Mantis with Mysql Only to avoid issues.

Thanks
