Summary0009266: webpath to the mantis installation is calculated wrong, if mantis is installed in the root directory of a webserver
Description

in config_defaults.inc.php the following is set from line 135 to 136

# Short web path without the domain name
$g_short_path           = $t_path . '/';

this causes mantis get get // as "root-folder", if installed in the docroot - that doesn't work

regards kay

PS: the mindmap is pretty cool

Steps To Reproduce

install mantis 1.2.0a in the docroot of a apache webserver

Additional Information

i solved the issue for me, by adding
#BugFix
$g_short_path = '';

to my config_inc.php

so config_defaults.inc.php has to be changed to fix it for all:

Short web path without the domain name

if($t_path==='/') {
    #mantis in docroot
    $g_short_path = $t_path;
} else {
    #mantis not in docroot
    $g_short_path           = $t_path . '/';
}
TagsNo tags attached.

some time an testing later:
the following let work the projectselector and the styles:
config_inc.php:

if(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])!=='set_project.php') {
    $g_short_path = '';
}

i've no time to see, why this problem appears, but this is a relativly simple solution for installing in a root directory

kaystrobach: the 'official' method to handle Mantis incorrectly detecting the relative path is to actually set $g_short_path in your config_inc.php as appropriate. I will attempt to enhance the current detection at some point, as it can be broekn by *nix symlinking or Apache URL rewriting, but in the mean time, manually setting $g_short_path is the preferred solution.

Eeven if it is not installed in the root, make this setting:
$g_short_path = "";

i had the following problem after updating to 1.2.0a2
i have no anonymous access enabled, so mantis should redirect me directly to the login_page.php

but it redirected me to http://doman/path/http://domain/path/login_page.php

$g_path=''; resolved the problem ... i don't know wether this is a bug or a feature ;)

kaystrobach,

You did not provide any feedback; I am therefore assuming that the problem is fixed with grangeway's fix mentioned in 0009266:0018964

Feel free to reopen the issue at a later time and provide the requested information.
