Topic: Updates to website

[Dan Brown]

I've updated my website at http://users3.50megs.com/danb35 in two ways.  First, my webmail writeup has been updated to link to and mention the most recent versions of the Horde and IMP RPMs.  Second, I've added a page describing, documenting, and linking to the ip_masq_icq module I recently built and posted.  Hope these are useful to somebody; let me know if there are any problems.

Dan,

How do I disable the disable of signup.php3 in horde?

How many licks to get to the center....and all that I guess.

    It should be disabled by default (if it's enabled, there is a "signup" link in the left frame).  If it isn't, go to horde/config/horde.php3 and change '$default->signup' to false.

[Garret]

Sorry,

should have said it better. How to enable. Already tried "true", jacked it all up.

Thanks

[Dan Brown]

What do you mean by "jacked it all up"?  The signup form doesn't actually create a new account; you'd need to do a lot of hacking to get it to do so.  What it does is send an e-mail to the address specified by $default->signup_email with the information on the form.

Error: Horde is not configured
You need to create the ./config/horde.php3 file using the ./config/horde.php3.dist file as a guide, or from scratch using the documentation.

You can also use the horde setup wizard. In order to use the setup wizard you will need to enable write privileges to your configuration files by running the following commands:

UN*X People:

cd
sh ./install.sh
Click here: setup.php3

I realize that is does not make an account and all of that. I wanted the sign-up because of the situation that this server will be in (too long to go into). It would make things much easier if I could get an e-mail saying to make an account for a person.

With all of that said, the above error is what I get. I start the install all over again, go through all of those girations and stuff, and then get an error saying that I have to go to the top dieectory and run the install. I was running it from the top directory /horde. Guess I might have to start al over again. Don't know. Any help Dan the man?

P.S.
Don't get too pissed, this is how I talk all the time. Truly I'm an ass, but I mean well:)

[Garret]

Got it

Thanks Dan

Dan,

I went to your updated websites and got the various files.  When attempting to install the latest horde, it failed because it required Apache 1.3.12.  What would be the best place to grab the apache rpm that would work with e-smith.  I suppose any Apache rpm for Red Hat would work, but I am a newbie at this.

I installed the redhat RPM and it's been working fine.

[Dan Brown]

Oops, that was a dumb mistake on my part.  It doesn't actually require apache 1.3.12; 1.3.9 is just fine.  I'm working on fixing the RPM, but for now, you can just install it with the --nodeps flag.  Sorry for the goof.

[Mike Coan]

Thanks for the quick response.

Now that I have it installed, I am not sure how to read the mail via webmail.  What address do I use in the browser to read the mail?  Can I access the mail from outside the local network?

If there is a manual on the use of webmail I will gladly read it.  I am sorry to keep asking questions, but I am not sure where to look for documentation on webmail.

Thanks

[Dan Brown]

Go to http://yourhostname/horde/imp.  This should be accessible from anywhere, whether inside or outside your LAN.

Thanks.  E-smith plus your webmail addition makes for an incredible package.  If I can get it up and running it is truly an easy install.

By the way, I installed the Apache 1.3.12 rpm from the Red Hat site and all works fine.

[Dan Brown]

I would not recommend installing Apache 1.3.12 from RedHat with the PHP RPMs I have available from my webmail page.  For now (until I get the horde RPM fixed), just use --nodeps to make it work with 1.3.9.  If you really want to work with Apache 1.3.12, I suggest you download the mod_php RPM from my SSL page.
