Ok. > Horde doesn't ask any questions during installation, even when running > dpkg-reconfigure. There are no instructions on how to configure horde > anywhere that is immediately obvious. If you want questions asked use horde2 and imp3. They have such support. > After adding the following lines to httpd.conf, I was able to access > horde (kind of): > > Alias /horde /user/share/horde3 > Alias /horde3 /user/share/horde3 I think this has been reported before and yes it should be fixed. I was not allowed to fix it for sarge as it was frozen.

This is configurable by changing files in /etc/horde/horde3 /horde3 is a good default as you can have horde2 and horde3 running side by side. I think you may be able to run horde too. > Even at this stage, using the horde3 URL, the very large and > complex configuration screens (which give no indication of which > questions are important and which aren't) are full of error messages > complaining about undefined indices in imp files. Yes horde3 is a complex program nowdays with support for a huge number of things. > I can not get horde or imp configured using this tool.

The old horde package > asked the appropriate questions during installation and worked "out of > the box." The package is smothly installed. If you read the README.Debian file that comes with the package you will find the information you need to know to install the package. Have you read that? It is not as trivial as before because the program has become much more complex itself. A smooth upgrade is not possible as the database format has changed too much. The old package had a nice set of questions because upstream did not have any support for the configuration. Now upstream has such support and right now it is a too big job to have a setup that works out of the box without breaking things. Instead of having a very restricted set of questions that seldom work for what people want to do I decided to let the user configure the database him/her-self and then use the web based configuration wizard.
