Title: SME 5.1.2 to 5.5 with IMP 3.0 and PHP upgrades already in pl
Post by: Reggie on July 03, 2002, 08:01:07 AM

As the topic states, I have already been running IMP 3.0 and the PHP upgrade per Dan's How-to. Should I anticipate any difficulties when attempting to upgrade to 5.5?

When I checked as of beta9, the IMP and PHP RPMs they used appeared to be just rebuilt copies of mine, so there shouldn't be a problem.  They did, however, considerably improve on my e-smith-horde and e-smith-imp RPMs.

Thanks Dan! I was hoping you would see this post. ;-)

Question, I've upgraded my 5.1.2 SME server which had the IMP 3.0 and PHP upgrades already in place to SME 5.5. Upgrade when fine without a problem except for one minor issue. After the upgrade, when ever anyone uses webmail (the url they use is www.myserver.address/webmail) the user show "admin". What do I need to do to correct this so that the user name field is blank like before? Thanks any and all help.

I have the same problem over here. Sometimes the admin user appears. When I reboot the server it dissappears. Anyone got a suggestion?

Here is the smart-assed answer from Rich at Mitel.

Sheesh, the source is right there! But enough people have asked this
without looking that I figured I might as well. From
horde/imp/templates/login/login.inc:

 
 

And from horde/lib/Horde.php:

    function getFormData($var, $default = null)
    {
        if (isset($GLOBALS['HTTP_POST_VARS'][$var])) {
            return Horde::dispelMagicQuotes($GLOBALS['HTTP_POST_VARS'][$var]);
        } elseif (isset($GLOBALS['HTTP_GET_VARS'][$var])) {
            return Horde::dispelMagicQuotes($GLOBALS['HTTP_GET_VARS'][$var]);
        } else {
            return $default;
        }
    }

So if $imapuser isn't set (and it won't be), it uses the current value
of $REMOTE_USER, which is "admin" if you happen to be logged into the
server-manager. (If you happened to be logged into your fnord i-bay,
it'd be "fnord".)

Smart-assed maybe, but it also appears to be complete and accurate, which is more than can be said for any of the other answers (mine included).

I know it is accurate, but he didn't have be-little everyone else.  I figure if one knew where to look for the answer, then one wouldn't ask the question.  :)
