Title: webmail login problem
Post by: Tito on January 14, 2004, 10:13:12 AM

Hi

Can anyone help me. I installed a fresh copy of the new v6 release and everything went fine until I tryed to login to the webmail.  It gives the following

"A fatal error has occurred:

DB Error: connect failed

[line 108 of /home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php]

Details have been logged for the administrator.."


I don´t know what to do or from where to look for these logs? Is it an installation probem that could fixed by installing just the part that has gone wrong?

If you now what to do please tell me also the command to use in root.

Thanks.

Your MySQL is not running for some reason.

Have you installed some modules ?

To 'control' the MySQL daemon,
Usage : /etc/init.d/mysqld {start¦stop¦status¦condrestart¦restart}

Example : /etc/init.d/mysql status
to show if it's running


Try "restart" mysqld and then :
cat /var/log/mysqld.log

This should show you what's happening exactly

Hello

here is the fix I have had the same problem with a new install

/sbin/e-smith/config delprop horde DbPassword
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event post-upgrade
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event reboot

somehow the new install fouls the horde password

hope this helps
