Now edit ZendCore to tell it to use MySQL. We will do this manually by editing the php.ini file. Go to an AS/400 command line and issue the command:
wrklnk '/usr/local/Zend/core/etc'
Place a 5 in the option column at ETC and Press Enter.
Place a 2 in the option column at PHP.INI and Press Enter.
Use the search command:
f =mysql
to find the lines:
;extension=mysql.so ;extension=mysqli.so
It is possible that they are already un-commented (without a leading semicolon). If not, remove the leading semicolon resulting in:
extension=mysql.so extension=mysqli.so
Save with F2 and exit with F3.
Obtain the latest stable version of Mantis from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=14963&package_id=166159 Download the file mantis-1.0.6.tar.gz to a folder.
Unpack the gz file and place the contents in the default http documents folder in the root file system of the IFS:
/www/zendcore/htdocs/
and use either the default folder name mantis-1.0.6 or a more convenient name like mantis or bugtracker or issues. For this example we will use the folder mm.
Start the install process by using your browser to run the index.php in the root folder of the Mantis software:
http://your_system_ip_or_name:89/mm/index.php
Provide the userIDs and passwords you configured for MySQL in the previous steps:
