Accesing Mantis from a Debian server

Question

I installed the latest mantis .deb package from the Debian package repository: mantis_1.1.6+dfsg-2_all.deb

How can I access the mantis application?

This server is already used for a wiki, so when I try

http://wiki/mantis/

an empty wiki page appears.

Update:

Below is the wiki's configuration file in the site-available folder. I am guessing that I need to place something similar to RewriteCond RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/mantis in there:

<VirtualHost *>
        #ServerName dekiwiki

        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error-dekiwiki.log
        CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access-dekiwiki.log common

        DocumentRoot "/var/www/deki-hayes"

        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$
        RewriteRule ^/$ /index.php?title= [L,QSA,NE]

        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(@api|editor|skins|config|deki)/
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/index\.php
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/favicon\.ico$
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots\.txt$
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/error/(.*)\.var$
        RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^$ [OR] %{REQUEST_URI} ^/Special:Search
        RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /index.php?title=$1 [L,QSA,NE]

        # Bug: 5252 https rewrite/proxy rules
        RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/@api/
        RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !^(.*)dream.in.scheme= [NC]
        RewriteRule ^/@api/(.*)$ http://localhost:8081/$1?dream.in.scheme=https               [QSA,P,L]

        RewriteCond %{HTTPS} =on
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/@api/
        RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)dream.in.scheme= [NC]

The wiki's website has a FAQ that explains what I was missing. I just needed to include the mantis folder in one of the RewriteCond lines to exclude that folder from the wiki.

How do I...Install PHP apps on the VM?

aptitude install mantis

cat /etc/apache2/conf.d/mantis

So have you hacked your apache config not to include the /etc/apache2/conf.d files ? I suspect that you need a separate virtual server for mantis as the Wiki is intercepting what you would expect to got to the mantis system.

Do you have these two lines in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

# Include generic snippets of statements

Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/

# Include the virtual host configurations:

Include /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

In the apache2.conf file, I see the "conf.d" and the "sites-enabled" lines. The "/etc/apache2/conf.d/mantis" also exists. In the "/etc/apache2/sites-available" folder, I only see a file for the wiki's configuration, and it hasn't been changed for a long time. – lamcro Jul 08 '09 at 11:56
