Horde database
« on: December 14, 2001, 08:43:52 PM »
Hi everyone,

I probably did something wrong with my php and Mysql, I am not able to access horde, I have an errror "Warning: Access denied for user: 'hordemgr@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/httpd/horde-phplib/db_mysql.inc on line 73"

I thought this was just a rights stuff, but I found that I have no database horde anymore, can someone tell me what I need to create for database and which tables, or can somebody make a dump of his database and send it to me ?

Hope to hear from someone

I saw in this forum that some people seems not to be pleased about v5, just want to let you know that it works perfectly fine to me, and for our customers. keep going...

best regards,

Jean-François

Hi Jean,

I don't know where to begin, but I have the same problem and I did modify the MySQL database to add a PHP Nuke account. First you may want to start here:

http://www.firstpr.com.au/web-mail/IMP-How-I-did-it/DATABASE-horde-1.2.0-pre13-00-05-30.txt

There is an init script that you can pipe to mysql>, it is located in
/etc/e-smith/sql/init you may want to view it using Midnight Commander and read what it says. I tried this, and I tried to do it manually to no avail. I think that there is more missing on my machine than just the horde database, I remember seeing an entire horde directory which I can no longer find. I hope someone can help us with this problem. At this point, I'm not sure if I'm a victim of some Nuke vulnerability or there is some other problem.

Regards,

OK, I got it working by using the manual(brute force approach), from the article I mentioned, only thing is you must increase the values from six 'y' to to ten 'y' otherwise you get a column match error. Hope this helps any others out there.

Many thanks to the supporters of this forum and to Jean for letting me know the manual approach worked.

One last thing, just in case it happens again:

/root]# mysql -p < /etc/e-smith/sql/init/30mysql.create.horde.sql

Just use the above script, it also works.
