Starting issues at higher number

Post by acidzfire »

Is there anyway I can start the issues at a higher number? I am switching over from a number sofware and would like my bugs to start at where I left off on the old software. I would like to start my issues off at 4200. Is this possible? If so, what do I need to do to accomplish this?

Mantis 1.1.2
PHP Version => 5.2.3-1ubuntu6.4
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.45

If any more info is needed, let me know.

Did you tried to set the auto increment start value in phpmyadmin?
under operations is a field for that

It won't let me do it. When I check the box to enable AUTO_INCREMENT Value, I cannot save it without putting something into the
"Copy Database To:" field which then makes a copy of the DB with neither the old or new db having the AUTO_INCREMENT checked.

I found this while looking through past posts so give it a try.

ALTER TABLE mantis_bug_table AUTO_INCREMENT=100

Of course, replace the 100 with the number you want to start with.
