Installation of Mantisbt

Post by mattsie69 »

Hey guys, I'm currently embarking on a school project about Mantisbt. I'm not really familliar with it and I would like to know how to install Mantisbt after I have downloaded the file. Thanks! (: I'm using windows if that helps.

Did you get a confirmation email for the user that you created?

There is the page <yourInstallation>/admin/test_email.php available which will help to find email related problems.

Maybe it's better to start without the email stuff, so you are able to create users without confirmation email.
To disable this feature, add the following line to the file config_inc.php
$g_enable_email_notification = OFF;

After having a running system, you can go on looking for the email problem.
Use the search function of the forum to get a first help for this.
To get help from others you should give more information about your environment.
