Re: Upgrade Mantis and keep plugins - 15 years agoUnfortunately that wasn't it. I'm on Windows for this sandbox env, am the admin of the machine, run the Apache service, and have full control over the Mantis directory. For now I blew away my Mantis install/database and reinstalled everything. If I wasn't in a position to have done this clean install I would pursue this further with you. Thanks again for your quick responseby dlgrasse - Help - Plugins Re: Upgrade Mantis and keep plugins - 15 years agoI'm not sure what you mean by "before changing the PHP file". In my case the steps I've followed for upgrading Mantis are: 1- click Plugin Manager's "Upgrade" link in existing 1.1.4 installation 2- download 1.1.5 and unzip in a folder beside my current 1.1.4 installation 3- run ~/mantis/admin/install.php in 1.1.5 installation 4- unpack PluginManager on topby dlgrasse - Help - Plugins Upgrade Mantis and keep plugins - 15 years agoDo you have notes anywhere that document best practices for managing your plugins when upgrading Mantis? In a sandbox I've upgraded Mantis from 1.1.4 to 1.1.5 following their notes (basically just unpack new Mantis beside old Mantis and copy over config_inc.php). Should I be able to install the plugin-manager and the plugins in this new 1.1.5 version just as I did with the 1.1.4 versionby dlgrasse - Help - Plugins Re: plugin installation failure - 15 years agoThank you - I have verified that they all install. dlgrasseby dlgrasse - Help - Plugins Re: plugin installation failure - 15 years agoi was able to install the Import/Export. thanks. lots to that one - looking forward to trying it out. i look forward to the updates on the others. dlgrasseby dlgrasse - Help - Plugins plugin installation failure - 15 years agoi feel like i've been nothing but trouble as a new user i hope at the least i'm helping identify real problems. i get the following errors trying to install the following plugins. no other information shows up in the install report.

I have not been so lucky. I am running Mantis 1.1.4 on Windows XP. I have tried to install the PluginManager versions 0.4.0 and then 0.3.0 both without success. With .0.3.0 I get similar errors to earlier posts. With 0.4.0 I get 2 red error messages (Install the plugin Step 2 /by dlgrasse - Help - Plugins |
