READ THIS MESSAGE CAREFULLY, IT CONTAINS IMPORTANT SECURITY INFORMATION
|
|
|
|
Mantis has been installed into ${INSTDIR}
|
|
|
|
You should point this to the DocumentRoot of your web-server:
|
|
# ln -s ../mantis /var/www/htdocs/mantis
|
|
(make sure you use a relative symlink since Apache is chrooted)
|
|
|
|
You can ensure you have a working install by accessing:
|
|
http://localhost/mantis
|
|
|
|
Some important notes:
|
|
|
|
Choose a database system:
|
|
|
|
Mantis can use a PostgreSQL or MySQL database. Install either the php5-pgsql
|
|
or the php5-mysql package before you use Mantis.
|
|
|
|
MySQL Database:
|
|
|
|
Install the database such that the Unix socket is in
|
|
/var/www/var/run/mysql/
|
|
|
|
Configuring:
|
|
|
|
Configure most of Mantis over the browser. You will then need to edit the file
|
|
${INSTDIR}/mantis/config_defaults_inc.php. Consult the
|
|
${INSTDIR}/mantis/doc/README file for more information.
|
|
|
|
Protecting the admin directory:
|
|
|
|
Make sure that you properly protect the /mantis/admin location to prevent
|
|
accessing it by unauthorized persons. The following fragment for
|
|
/var/www/conf/httpd.conf limits access to clients connecting from localhost.
|
|
You might want to even password protect this location.
|
|
|
|
<Location "/mantis/admin">
|
|
<Limit GET>
|
|
Order allow,deny
|
|
Allow from localhost
|
|
</Limit>
|
|
</Location>
|
|
|
|
Changing the administrator password
|
|
|
|
Once you have configured you Mantis installation, login as the administrator
|
|
user with the default password 'root' and change it before you make yourxi
|
|
installation available.
