Summary	0010880: Links in mantis (notes)
Description	Hello, I have a company mantis system that is used with svn. After tedious hours of setting up svn to work with the post commit in our own way I found what I believe to be a convient feature that is turning out to be a massive bug for me. When our svn system updates it has been configured to print a normal link ing the following format. Added(or Updted) <a href=websvn_link/file>file</a> To my dismay the websvn link is resolving so it is literally printing. Added(or Updated) <a href=websvn_link/file>file</a> With the href underlined and linked. This is a problem for us and I am looking for a way to solve it so that it would come out like the following. Added(or Updated) file Where file is underlined and linked to "websvn_link/file" I have done some snooping and I cannot find a fix, please help me. My greatest apperciation in advance; Stephen P. (PS: sorry for bleeping out the company name in the picture but we want the least attention to our systems as we can get.)
Steps To Reproduce	Attempt to plave a "<a href=link>text</a>" in a note.

dhx 2009-08-27 03:15 reporter ~0022818	You may not like this answer, but I strongly suggest you take a look at upgrading to MantisBT 1.2.x and using the SourceIntegration plugin (can be checked out from mantisforge.org). It is 100000000000x better than the old SCM integration in Mantis 1.1.x and will save you a lot of headaches. Otherwise just wait here and see if anyone else can help (I only use 1.2.x now).

spraus 2009-09-21 02:51 reporter ~0022993	Well you cannot use IIS with php5 and it is not possible to upgrade to 1.2.x therefore I still have this issue.

cas 2009-09-21 09:56 reporter ~0022996	why would it not be possible to use IIS with PHP5 ? We have this running for a long time without problems.

spraus 2009-09-25 14:42 reporter ~0023031	php5 dose not support MSSQL the dll has not been released compiled for php5 and being that php 5 is required for mantis 2.x its become a problem.

cor3huis 2010-01-22 10:46 reporter ~0024222	I would advise if you have the option to v 1.2RC2 or higher and use the PHP5 mssql opensourced driver from http://www.codeplex.com/SQLSRVPHP

dhx 2010-02-07 08:29 reporter ~0024340	PHP 4 is thoroughly deprecated and should not be used as it is no longer supported with security updates. A quick Google search will yield many answers on how to get PHP5 working with IIS and MySQL. I understand that upgrading to 1.2.x is not the answer (at least for now) to this issue. However, it appears you're already using deprecated versions of PHP. MantisBT's old inbuilt source integration will eventually be deprecated as well. Hence I strongly advise you to update your software to versions which are actively supported and developed for. MantisBT 1.1.x is not supported anymore except for critical security issues. When MantisBT 1.2.0 is released and available for a short while, support for MantisBT 1.1.x will likely be dropped entirely. Even now I wouldn't recommend using 1.1.x because of the HUGE improvement in security in version 1.2.x. Full CSRF protection, many XSS bugs fixed, cookie hardening, etc are all in 1.2.x - but not 1.1.x.

dhx 2010-06-09 03:28 reporter ~0025773	The built in SVN integration has been deprecated/removed in 1.3.x and thus this issue is no longer relevant. Please see 0011732 for more information.
