I'm trying to reopen resolved or closed Mantis issues using MantisConnect I have thusfar succeeded in changing the status of non resolved/closed issues but when the issue is one of these two, i keep getting the following Exception:
System.ServiceModel.ProtocolException
with the message:
There is a problem with the XML that was received from the network. See inner exception for more details.
with inner Exception:
System.Xml.XmlException
With the message:
The encoding in the declaration 'ISO-8859-1' does not match the encoding of the document 'utf-8'.
I'm using the update command to do the update described here: https://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/api/soap/mantisconnect.php?wsdl
got my mantisconnect code from github here: https://github.com/mantishub/MantisDotNetClient
The funny thing is that the changes to other states and even to the resolved and closed state work, the Exception is only throws when the issue is already resolved or closed I could not find any other commands in mantisconnect to reopen an issue, anyone have an idea.
Edit: Mantis issue I was talking about in my comment The ticket: https://mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=16579
Since there is a bug in the mantis API I solved this problem by navigating the website using WebRequests and the bulk UP_STATUS feature from mantis. It's dirty but it works.
