System Requirements

由于 Mantis 是一个网络应用程序，因此它遵循客户端/服务器的概念。这意味着 Mantis 可以集中安装在服务器上，用户可以使用任何计算机上的网站通过网络浏览器与之交互。

Since Mantis is a web-application, it follows the concept of client/server. This means, Mantis can be installed centrally on the server and users can interact with it through web-browsers using a website from any computer.

  1. Web Server − Mantis is tested with Microsoft IIS and Apache. However, it can work with any latest web server software. Mantis only uses .php file. Configure the web server with .php extension only.

  2. PHP − The web server should support PHP. It can be installed as CGI or any other integration technology.

  3. Mandatory PHP Extensions − Extensions for RDBMS are mysqli, pgsql, oci8, sqlsrv mbstring is required for Unicode - UTF-8 support.

  4. Optional Extensions − Curl, GD, Fileinfo.

  5. Database − Mantis requires a database to store its data. MySQL and PostgreSQL are supported RDBMS.
