Mantis BT

About


Mantis Bug Tracker is a free and open source, web-based bug tracking system. The most common use of MantisBT is to track software defects. However, MantisBT is often configured by users to serve as a more generic issue tracking system and project management tool.

Can this run off of a RaspberryPi if it is set up to be a LAMP server?

I did it! I got this thing to work! It took a lot of finagling to get things just right because MantisBT uses php and thus requires a php "pool" (I'm honestly not even sure what this is, might look more into it if I need to) so I set one up, leaving the default settings (may need to change these if there are hiccups).

I still need to complete the initial admin setup to get the whole thing installed but at least I'm no longer getting the "503 Bad Gateway" error!

Looks like I might have to get into the MySQL web admin page and set that up before doing the install process. Install requires MySQL database username and password for setup. Gonna need to watch YouTube tutorials on how that whole process works.

Everything seems to be working fine on this. Got the MySQL users and permissions sorted out and MantisBT is installed. I still need to mess around with this and add users and issues/projects.

Next, I'd like to look into accessing MantisBT from outside the network.
