Setting up apache/mySql/PHP/Mantis

Fancied having a go at setting up the Mantis bug tracker on Mint. Here's what I did:


    sudo apt-get install apache2
    sudo apt-get install mysql
    sudo apt-get install libdbd-mysql (stopped browser d'loading php files instead of executing them)


Download Mantis
Download PHP
Unzip PHP
Run ./ configure --with-mysqli=mysqlnd in the php directory
- Had to install libxml2-dev due to error
make
make tests
sudo make install
...
...
...

I gave up :-( Too much hassle trying to get PHP and mySQL working together. Maybe another time...
