Really thanks for your extended explanation... Let me respond you via BTS, just to let the complete info about this issue for others whom will be interested. > The mantis apache.conf file, as installed from the package, is actually > not a complete vhost configuration (probably because mantis can be run > within a vhost without problem).

The VirtualHost declaration further contains a CustomLog entry > and a DocumentRoot entry. In fact, here is the complete file (with the > additional Alias as required): I see, I understand now the problem.. (for privacity I don't reply your custom config). When you use mantis under Virtual Host configuration, which the Documentroot overrides the "/" directory, and you use the Alias for /mantis, even if you assume it's not necessary: If you run this, everything works fine: http://host/mantis/view_all_bug_page.php If you run this, doesn't: http://host/view_all_bug_page.php Because in that case you are using the defaults from Apache, and in combination with javascript-common apache Alias, the server is triying to look the files under /usr/share/javascript/. As mantisBT upstream documentation explains, the default configuration for mantis is always "http://host/mantis";, and in debian the default configuration is always ""http://host/mantis/mantis";. Because of that reason the "default package" distributed under debian it's prepared to work correctly under that especs. Of course, that's not means that you could apply your "custom" configuration, and that's what you are getting those troubles.. yes your right, you have a problem with "javascript" path location under this custom work around. But when you change something you have to "take care" on your own changes", even if you made and update.. because "the default maintainer version will not be installed on your system as well" .. right? Yes, I guess one solution for "your custom configuration", would be add this line into the config Apache file: Alias /javascript /usr/share/mantis/www/javascript FYI, your case will be considered, and we are going to open a bug under wishlist to apply some warnings about setting up mantis under VirtualHost configuration and different "default" path. Some information about this is related to Multisite documentation, but is not exactly the same case. I open a wishlist bug related to this issue on BTS #635932 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=635932 Thanks a lot for your help, and sorry about the misunderstanding. Cheers Sils
