Create these files from their .dist versions in /home/httpd/html/horde/config and change them according to your needs.

So where do these Horde config files live?

Exactly what it says: /home/httpd/html/horde/config.

But these conf files are templated. Is the templating system ok?

Hi RequestedDeletion.

Not sure if the templating system is okay. Just reading the developer guide now ...

Is there a quick way to tell if it's okay?

Thanks.

as a test, on the console as root do "expand-template /etc/php.ini" and look for errors on screen or in the logs.

Thanks RequestedDeletion. Yes, no errors onscreen or in logs when running that from the CLI.

I guess I'll refer back to the working default 9.0 setup I have in a VM, against the working 8.1 setup I have in another VM, and see what the differences are.

2. Used installed SME9 on another local VM. This works fine, apart from not being able to login to the server-manager after an almost completely vanilla install (I chose no RAID, no LVM).


I would erase this VM and start from scratch. The not being able to login should never happen, so you already working with an unexpected error and thus a unreliable install.

Yep. Did this.

It turned out that admin was not a member of "www" group. A leftover from 6.something, I think.

So I installed a new SME9 machine, and restored from backup.

Just webmail to fix.

Thanks for your help. Appreciated, as always.

Provider is Linode perhaps?

Yup, Linode.


Thought so, that should work. I had a VPS there once with SME Server for a long time. But as you experience, getting SME Server up there is a challenge. indeed at the time dd was used. It was also at the time that they only provided 1 NIC, so I developed my own virtual interface to act as local interface.
