Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Hi.

I have an installation of Mantis to try its features out.

The environment is:

Windows XP Pro SP2
Apache 2.2.4
MySQL 5.0.41
PHP 5.2.3

Everything worked fine during the installation and I was about to start testing it; Then I tried to access the system from another machine. It loads fine, I log in without any problems but everytime I click on an new option (menu or other) that loads another page, Mantis kick me out to the login page. I log in again and I got the page I clicked before being logged out, but if I try to click it again... I am out to the login page once more.

I am not using a router between the machines and there is no DNS server too. I log in through the second machine, WinXP, typing in the IP address of the "server" machine and I get Mantis. I did the same with Scarab and worked without problems.

When I access from the "server" machine, everything works. No strange logging out. It does not matter what account I use.

Does any one knows what this is ?

Thanks a lot

Have you tried another browser on that same machine? I'm having a guess here, but I wonder if it's related to cookies (either the browser rejecting them or the Mantis installation not sending them correctly).

If another browser works, then I would assume it's the former. If the other browser doesn't work, then I would make sure that they're both set up to accept cookies then look in the cookie list and see what (if anything) is being sent...
