Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Hello Everyone,

I am in need of some installation help/troubleshooting. My company has given the go ahead to replace the Bug Tracker. It has to be running monday on the production environment Server 2008 64 bit, details below.

I install all necessary components no problem. The mantis install.php fails. Everything Passes/Good execept:

Attempting to connect to database as admin

BAD
Does administrative user have access to the database? ( A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. )

I can log into MySQL with multiple users and create databases with them. I have tried combinations of user/pass but no luck. I have read all the messages posted here regarding this and none have helped. I am in need of desperate help as I do not want to live with Bugzilla!

OS: Windows 2008 Server 64 bit inside VMWare 6.5.2
Mantis v1.1.8
MySQL: 5.1.41 Server General Community
PHP: 5.3.1 Non-thread safe - php-5.3.1-nts-Win32-VC9-x86
Webserver: IIS 7.0 that comes with Server 2008, fastCGI Configured and working as I can run PHP Info and install.php for mantis.

Any help would be appreciated I would really like mantis to be the solution.

Thanks,

The Peasant King

Did you find a solution to this? I am having the same problem.

really silly question, when you say admin do you mean the windows admin account?

also, i'm assuming that you set the db admin user and password in the config_inc.php? just for reference, i'm using "root" as the db username.

I've gotten mantis up and running on win2008R2 with no problems, so i'm wondering if it is a mysql problem you are running into.

Have a look at
http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=11255

Seems, that PHP 5.3.x is not a good choice to work with MastisBT 1.1.x and even 1.2.x still is not 100% working with it.

Maybe your problems disappear if you install PHP 5.2 on your machine
