Upgrading 1.1.8->1.2 ; mantis_category_table

Post by ha17 »

Hello -- we have set up an extensive setup of "assigned to" for the categories in each project. Upon upgrade (1.1.8->1.2) these assignments are lost.

I'm looking at the /admin/schema.php file but I'm struggling to understand where it's getting the data from the old mantis_project_category_table.

mantis_category_table is found in three places: create the table, then indexes, and the last entry in the file is for "InsertData" and it seems to have one entry.

mantis_project_category_table is found in two places, one create table and one drop table. I don't know why it would be created (unless for compatibility with very old versions as a temporary method to facilitate the upgrade?) but somewhere the data is getting from my existing categories into this new mantis_project_category_table (there are rows in the new table, just the handler_id/user_id is empty). Is it being generated from somewhere else? I just need to understand where it's coming from so I can alter the system a little.

Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree.

TIA,
Hans

Thank you - I actually found that late last night after I posted. We'll do the upgrade. That should be the last piece for us. I've already written 5 plugins for this. It's so awesome to have this functionality! Great work, for sure.
