Please help!
First I have no idea where to find the version.
This is a install onto a IBM iseries system. The install went fine up to the point where I am asked to change the

Use your favorite PLAIN TEXT editor (not MS Word or Wordpad) to edit the file:
\mantis400\config_inc.php
see below

# --- email variables -------------
# the sender name, part of 'From: ' header in emails
$g_from_name = 'Mantis400';

# --- sitewide variables ----------
# browser window title
$g_window_title = 'Premise Mantis Help Desk - AS/400 i5';
# title at top of html page
$g_page_title = 'Premise Mantis Help Desk - AS/400 i5';


# Files that are allowed or not allowed. Separate items by commas.
# eg. 'php,html,java,exe,pl'
# if $g_allowed_files is filled in NO other file types will be allowed.
# $g_disallowed_files takes precedence over $g_allowed_files
$g_allowed_files = '';
$g_disallowed_files = 'php,pl,java';

--- cookie prefix ---------------
# set this to a unique identifier. No spaces.
$g_cookie_prefix = 'MANTIS400';

# Link to manual for User Documentation.
$g_manual_url = 'http://www.mantisbt.org/manual/index.php/';

# String used to generate the confirm_hash for the
# 'lost password' feature and captcha code for 'signup'
# ATTENTION: CHANGE IT TO WHATEVER VALUE YOU PREFER
$g_password_confirm_hash_magic_string = 'cornedbeefhash';

# your TrueType-Font files used to create the captcha image and
$g_system_font_folder= './fonts/';
$g_font_per_captcha= 'arial.ttf';

Your posting is a little bit puzzeling and not very clear. If you wonna get help you should be more precise, I suggest.
I think your problem is that you have edited a php-File (the config), and after all you get a blank screen, correct?

This can happen if the syntax of your file is not correct. One missing sign can be the problem.
So check that file and correct it.
