Heh - Copyright 2004. That's pretty old. I'm guessing that either your admins removed the code that give the version number there or it wasn't present originally in that release.

I'm trying to estimate the effort required to upgrade this mantis to one of the recent versions.

For this I really do need to know what version I'm running now.
Is there some "Version" function I can call or something like this, could you look at your mantis and post the code that does the version deploying trick? I will then try to run it with my version and see what gives.

Any tips on upgrade path btw?



Thank you,
Maxim.

Have a look in the folder mantis\doc for the ChangeLog.

Checkout the following configuration option in config_defaults_inc.php to know the version:

Code: Select all

# --- version variables -----------
$g_mantis_version		= '1.1.0a2';
If you want to make this visible, then make sure the following option is set to ON in config_inc.php:

Code: Select all

$g_show_version			= ON;

Or use:

grep MANTIS_VERSION ./core/constant_inc.php

Example (in bash shell):

Code: Select all

> grep MANTIS_VERSION ./core/constant_inc.php
define( 'MANTIS_VERSION', '1.2.17' );
