You can enable output buffering during runtime by calling the output ; buffering functions. You can also enable output buffering for all files by ; setting this directive to On.

aarjona 2002-05-22 12:15 reporter ~0002642	my bad did some testing, and the situation is the following: with all warnings and notices set to appear in php.ini I was able to reproduce your problem. a change made in core_API.php is the culprit. the config and constants include()'s and requiere()'s were below some code that made use of some vars and constants. I moved the following lines: require( "constant_inc.php" ); require( "./default/config_inc1.php" ); if ( file_exists( "config_inc.php" ) ) { include( "config_inc.php" ); } Load file globals # @@@ ugly hack for ugly problem. Find better solution soon `require( "./default/config_inc2.php" );` before this line: ini_set("magic_quotes_runtime", 0); and that did it. Please confirm if this solves your problem, so I check the change in.

brody 2002-05-23 01:35 reporter ~0002649	Solves the problem. For us mantisbt0.17.3 is up and running now. Many thanks.
