Topic: Fatal error in webmail

[Jens K. Hansen]

Because I couldn't access the server via ssh I had to reinstall and do a restore from desktop. The restore from desktop didn't work either so I had to ftp the backup file to the root (/). I Gunzipped and tar'ed the file. Evertbody gets their files but now the webmail app dosn't work. Everytime a user tries to login the PHP app failes with:

A fatal error has occurred
object(db_error)(7) {
  ["error_message_prefix"]=>
  string(0) ""
  ["mode"]=>
  int(1)
  ["level"]=>
  int(1024)
  ["code"]=>
  int(-24)
  ["message"]=>
  string(24) "DB Error: connect failed"
  ["userinfo"]=>
  string(86) " [nativecode=Access denied for user: 'horde@localhost' (Using password: YES)] ** Array"
  ["callback"]=>
  NULL
}
[/home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php : 102]

What do I do to repair the mail/webmail?

I have read the note about parsing the mysql_create.sql script to the DB. When I try I get the error:

error 1045: Access denied for user 'root@localhost'  (Using password: YES)


I have also read about upgrading to version 5.6 but it is not possible for me to download the .iso image. I think the servers is overloaded from  everybody trying to download the new image.

After 3 days without mail I am beginning to get a bit desperate.

Could anybody help me getting this webmail up and running again?
