The "pretty explicit and correct" instructions refer to getting PHP4.4 to work with Apache. As for setting up Mantis, well I did this in 2006 - nearly 3 years ago. I know this works as I did it 3 times - rolling back the system each time, and documented it for good measure so future employees should be able to follow it. If you have the same system (which I see you don't) and the same versions of the files, then you too should be able to follow the instructions. If you have different versions then there might/will be small differences.

I am trying to set up Mantis on a Win Vista system and the instructions provided at: http://www.mantisbt.org/manual/manual.installation.php are cryptically crude and skip too many gotcha details. Or perhaps this is a quote from somewhere else, or I am missing the meaning. Graham, to what “pretty explicit and correct” instructions are you referring in response 1?
