Mantis freezing

[Mattchaos]

Hi all

I recently installed Mantis for a project on a windows machine.
I installed first Wamp server 2.0i then Mantis 1.2.2
Installation worked fine and I migrated some data in.
Now my project is accessible on network and I'm discovering several problems that lead to the same behavior: mantis "freezes" in all instances, no link opens anymore and if I insist I obtain an Apache error ("File does not exist: C:/wamp/www/favicon.ico" then "client denied by server configuration: C:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin3.2.0.1/, referer: http://server001"). I have to reboot Wamp on the web server in order to be able to access Mantis again. I tried to access to database during those "freeze" and I have no problem, I also can access another php project without any issue.
It happens when we do one of the following:
- accessing mantis (logged in or not) with more than two computer at the same time
- trying to change the password remotely (it works fine on the server itself) for any user
- logging out

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance

Wamp server 2.0i

Part of this is PHP 5.3.0, which is really a bad one.
Use the latest version of PHP 5.2.x (or at least 5.2.6) or a newer one of PHP 5.3.x (at least 5.3.2)
If there are still issues after up- or downgrading PHP, update also MantisBT to latest 1.2.3 because it makes is not much sense searching for bugs in older versions.

Hi!

Not sure about your problem, but I had something the same and this issue helped me: http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=11535

Of course, this might help, but having a look at
http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.3.1 and
http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.3.2 and
http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.3.3
should be enough to believe me that using 5.3.0 is a waste of time

I dont argue with that at all, especially since I am not an expert. I just tried to give a quick fix if possible.
