and HTML formats.
REQUIREMENTS
* MySQL 4.1.1+, PostgreSQL 8+, or other supported database
* PHP 5.1.0+
* a webserver (e.g. Apache or IIS)

to mantisbt/config_inc.php if your web server does not have write access
* Point your browser to http://path/to/mantisbt/admin/check.php to ensure that
your webserver is compatible with MantisBT and configured correctly
* Remove the admin/ directory from within the MantisBT installation path. The
scripts within this directory should not be accessible on a live MantisBT
site or on any installation that is accessible via the Internet.
UPGRADING
* Backup your existing installation and database -- really!
* Extract the tarball into a clean directory; do NOT extract into an existing
installation, as some files have been moved or deleted between releases
* Copy your configuration from the old installation to the new directory,
including config_inc.php, custom_strings_inc.php, and
custom_constants_inc.php if they exist
* Point your browser to http://path/to/_NEW_mantisbt/admin/install.php to
upgrade the database schema
* Click install/upgrade
* Point your browser to http://path/to/_NEW_mantisbt/admin/check.php to ensure that
your webserver is compatible with MantisBT and configured correctly
* Remove the admin/ directory from within the MantisBT installation path. The
scripts within this directory should not be accessible on a live MantisBT
site or on any installation that is accessible via the Internet.
* To restore your original MantisBT URL operation it is best at this point
to delete the old MantisBT directory and rename the directory you
extracted the tarball to to the original directory name.
* Upgrading is complete
