Can't use mantis on the LAN

Post by astonie »

Hello,

Mantis is installed on a server Windows Server with IIS 6.
When we attempt to connect and use mantis with http://www.site.com/mantis from outside of the webfarm, all is OK.

When we attempt to use from inside the webfarm with the same URL, some pages do not work
eg : login_page.php is OK ; after validating, the page login.php is displayed (white page) and freeze.

eg : the page view_all_bug_page.php is OK, but when cliking on add a bug, the page bug_report.php stays empty

same thing when modifying the profile of one user.

Is it a limitation on the local IP's ? help us, we have a demonstration tomorrow and we cannot use the product from our meeting room.

Thank's

Is there a firewall, or proxy between the desktop and the server?

Do both machines agree on the DNS resolution for the IP addresses? There is no reference to "localhost" on the server name?

there us a firewall betwwen the server and the remote computers :) but not between the server and the local computers.

Mantis is OK on the remote ones and not OK on the local ones. We have tested this on many computers (PCs, Macs, ...).

mantis is installed as an subdir of a php website which is OK.
http://www.mysite.com is OK
http://www.mysite.com/phpmyadmin is OK
http://www.mysite.com/phpdocumentor is OK
http://www.mysite.com/phpbb is OK

but http://www.mysite.com/mantis is not OK for all the computers on the Local Network. very very strange !

The only reference to localhost is for the Mysql connexion.

example :
a disconnected user attempt to view mantis/my_view_page.php
--> the displayed page is empty
he goes to the the mantis/login_page.php and fill the login/password
--> the displayed page login.php is displayed ... empty
he return to the mantis/my_view_page.php
--> the screen is well displayed
so mantis has recorded the login/password but the redirection freezes somewhere.
