I consider to use Mantis or Redmine to manage projects. (Issue Tracking)
I know both are really good.
For now, I won't connect it with SVN or Git.
(It may happen later)
The main purpose is issue tracking on business with co-workers.
Please recommend one of them, or you can recommend the other one.
Thanks.
I can recommend redmine. I've been using it for more than 2 years, with 25-50 simultaneous users and more than 50 projects.
I went through a lot of updates without ever having any problems.
The database is properly normalized, so if you ever need to retrieve any data, you will be able to do so.
Numerous plugins exists which may cover special needs if there are any.
Edit: In the meantime, I had to change over to Jira, but I'd go back to redmine anytime if I could.
Never used Redmine, but we've been using Mantis for about 7-8 years for many projects for our distributed team. One of the benefits is its simplicity. We've even wrote a couple of our own extensions, e.g. widely used in our process Kanban board (one of the Agile approaches).
Sometimes I think it looks slightly outdated among other modern tools but it really works for us and we can extend it with our own PHP code.

I have a ticketing system (lets say JIRA or similar) for my application to file an issue of my application. Now my requirement is to build a knowledge base in a way so that I can predict the solution of any similar issues in future by churning that knowledge base.
To explain further, the knowledge base would give me how many times this kind of issues have arisen in past and what have been the root cause of it in most of the time (lets say 80% time). This way the repository should have an analysis of each and every issue and its possible root cause plus many other relevant information about the issue.
Just to start off to build such a knowledge base, I need to know following things:
What is the most commonly used technology/mechanism available to achieve this ?
How do I need to architect/design a system to be able to serve this kind of requirement?
Does it require to learn any particular language/database ?
I request community experts to enlighten me with the required information and pointers to give me a starting point at least in this direction.
Thanks.
I would suggest against a ‘reinvent the wheel’ approach.
There are perfectly good tools out there that achieve your required use cases. Look at ServiceNow or Desk.com as CRM for tickets, or if you just want a Wiki that integrates with Jira, look at Atlassian’s wiki.
You can also generate reports from Jira itself, not sure why anyone would want to build his own when there are such great tools out there.

I am developing a Windows desktop app, it allows users to create accounts and then login. Once logged in it allows them to interact with other users, and even has a chat box in a certain area. This app will eventually be ported over to android and ios(hopefully). Considering that it fetches quite a bit of information over the internet is C++ the most appropriate language to program it in?(i know quite a bit of c++, enough to make this) or should I use HTML5 or something else.
EDIT: For simplicity, essentially what I would like to know is. What is the EASIEST language to program an application in that will accept username/password and allow users to interact with one another. This program will also be accepting payments within it. I would like to use a language that is easily ported over to Android and IOS.
This is a question that doesn't really have a good answer. It's like asking what color you should paint the garden shed. There are many correct answers, and they are all subjective, and most likely based on the answerer's personal experiences.
If you have had experience with C++, then by all means go for it. C++ and it's related languages have the capability to create message windows and interact over the internet, so it is a good possibility for you.

I'm looking to write a reporting tool. The data resides in a ~6GB postgresql database. The application is an online store/catalog application that has items and orders. The stakeholders are requesting a feature that will allow them to search for an item and give a count of all those orders in the last 2 years.
Some rows contain quantities, and units of measure, which would require multiplication of quantity and UoM for each row.
It's also possible that other reporting functions will be necessary in the future.
I have not delved much into the data analysis aspect of programming. I enjoy Clojure, so I would be thrilled to find a solution that uses Clojure, but only if Clojure offers competitive tools for my needs.
Here are some options I'm considering:
merely SQL
Clojure
core.reducers
a clojure hadoop library
Hadoop
Can anyone shed some insight into these kinds of problems for me? Are there articles that you would recommend?
Hadoop is likely overkill for this project. It seems most likely that simply using Clojure-jdbc or Korma to read the data form the database and filter/reduce it in Clojure is likely to be fine. At work we routinely work with sequences of that size, though this depends on the expected response time. You may need to do some preprocessing and caching if instantaneous responses are expected.

A while ago i made a database framework in c++ and have been using it in various places, even made a wrapper for it for vb.net.
Now i have a new project that would require multiple programs accessing a single database and it would be wasteful to load up the database multiple times for every one of them not to mention the syncing horrors.
So I figured i would turn the framework into a standalone application and access to the data would be done in some xx magical way from those other programs. From what I've seen php and mysql do something like this..?
Problem is, I have no clue where to start. The only kind of cross program communication i've done is one program reading and writing directly into the other ones memory, seems kinda hacky though and I'm not sure if that sort of thing is going to fly with managed languages (I want to make it accessible in vb.net too).
Tips?
The most portable way to do IPC (inter-process communication) is probably going to be Sockets.
What about D-Bus? There ist a port for Windows.

Some would argue that Bazaar Model of development can lead to a tangled mess of cowboy code.
I'm wondering, which model does Django follow? At first glance it seems to be a highly organized bazaar model, with vetting and triage stages and such. However, the source is available at all times, but not every patch or suggestion gets randomly added to the code base. Likewise, major versions (0.96, 1.0, 1.0.2, 1.1, etc.) are somewhat cathedral in their presentation.
Which is it and why?
It's an open-source project, so could be described as following the Bazaar model. However I think this question is rooted in a misunderstanding of what that is.
There's nothing in that model to insist that any random rubbish gets committed to the code. I've never heard of an open-source project where that was the case (maybe because anything that did follow that would indeed be a tangled mess, and unlikely to be successful).
And again there's nothing in that model to say you can't have major version numbers. These are just a snapshot of the code at that point. You can download and deploy the code as it was one commit before or after version 1.0.2, with nothing to stop you.
