How do I reinstall horde in 7rc2?
« on: May 22, 2006, 04:44:04 PM »
Hi...  It's official!  Now I've PROVED that I know just enough to be dangerous.  I recently had some problems with Kronolith, which were fixed by performing a complete resintall of horde (jbennet's rpms).  However, subsequent to that, I've done a number of other modifications, one of which was to install some rpms that were displayed in the Software Installer - Horde included.  As a result of this (perhaps), I noticed that I had duplicate calendars in My Calendar.  Figuring that it was just a glitch somewhere along the line, I decided to reinstall jbennet's rpms - to no avail.  Finally, I decided (this is where I proved my incompetence) to completely wipe horde and start fresh.  This I did, removing the horde directory in /home/httpd/html/horde and by dropping the horde database.

So .... to say my server has been left in an "unstable" state, would be an understatement (as far as horde is concerned).  Now when I go to https://my.domain.com/webmail, I get "Index of /webmail" and a directory listing showing SSLonly.

Any suggestions?  Is there a way to reinstall the horde framework that comes with SME7rc2 so I can start again?

EDIT: Sorry ... I forgot to mention that after I wiped everything, I did attempt to reinstall the horde framework using jbennet's rpms using both:
rpm -Uvh --force --allfiles *.rpm
and
rpm -Ivh --force --allfiles *.rpm

The RPM's that I have don't cover all of the modules.  You should be able uninstall what your system thinks are the horde, imp, turba, ingo (default SME), kronolith, nag, mnemo, gollem (From me), then mount your CD and re-install horde, imp, turba, ingo, smeserver-horde, imp, turba, ingo, then signal-event post-upgrade ; signal-event reboot and possibly fix your system.

Thanks for the response.  In the meantime, I tried another method, and I think it work (so far so good).  I used the Software Installer panel to uninstall all horde components, rebooted, then resintalled all components from scratch again using software installer.  That made webmail (horde) work again, after which I installed jbennets RPM's on top.  Again, it seems to be working fine.  If not, I'll attach a monitor and install using the CD as you suggested.
