Unable to Upgrade

Post by wdolson »

We've been running an older version of Mantis. The old version is in Mantis1_2_15, but I think we upgraded to a 1.3.x version. Most of the files in the version we've been using are dated 11/19/2016.

Anyway another app running on the same server needed PHP 7 and Mantis quit working shortly after they upgraded. I've been tasked with upgrading Mantis to a newer version.

I created a new directory Mantis2_14_0 and tried to run admin/install.php. I get the following message and nothing else:

INTERNAL APPLICATION ERROR

Please use the "Back" button in your web browser to return to the previous page. There you can correct whatever problems were identified in this error or select another action. You can also click an option from the menu bar to go directly to a new section.

I tried opening up the permissions in the Mantis 2.14.0 directory 777 temporarily, but that didn't work.

Any idea what this message is trying to tell me?

It looks like they shut off mysql support when they upgraded PHP

Database type is supported by the version of PHP installed on this server
The current database type is set to mysql. The version of PHP installed on this server does not have support for this database type.

I changed mysql to mysqli. In the new installation attempt it didn't appear to do anything. When I changed it with the old installation and ran check.php again, I got the report at the bottom of the page. It looks like the character set in the database got changed somehow. Do I need to change the database, or is there a setting for this in Mantis somewhere?

Checking your installation

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.
