Oh dear! That version has many well known vulnerabilities.

You've been very, very, very lucky to have only been spammed. I had forums running 2.0.11 and just after Christmas they got hacked with obscenities and anti-gulf war slogans.

If you are not on the latest version, disabling guest posting may not solve the problem. They could be exploiting an SQL insertion vulnerability.

Is this forum running version 2.0.19?

I'm starting to get a bad feeling about the way things are going with Mantis. Are the developers losing interest?

If they cared they'd be concerned about the way things looked to visitors on these forums.

Try adding

$g_bypass_headers = ON;

to your config file.

Well I've managed to hack the sort order. In core/relationship_api.php I replaced the query in function relationship_get_all_src with:
$query = "SELECT $t_mantis_bug_relationship_table.id, $t_mantis_bug_relationship_table.relationship_type,
$t_mantis_bug_relationship_table.source_bug_id, $t_mantis ...

Using Mantis 0.19.2 - uploads to file (not to database)

If I upload a file to a bug it appears to upload correctly (no error given). However the size of the file shows as zero bytes and it cannot be accessed.

If I find the size of the file from looking at it's properties in the upload directory ...

Using 0.19.2 - I have created a couple of admin bugs to hold all the bugs to be fixed for a release (as is done on here for the mantisbt project - see http://bugs.mantisbt.org/view.php?id=4181 for an example).

Two questions relating to the grid of relationships:

1. Is it possible to add the ...

See this bug: http://bugs.mantisbt.org/view.php?id=3729 particularly the notes.

I added the to config_inc.php and it has fixed it for me using Firefox 1.0.3.

As this "fix" seems a bit of a sledgehammer, does anyone know if it has any undesirable side effects?

Just to report back - the twin Mantis directories pointing to the same mySQL database are working fine - thanks for people's comments.
