Package: horde3 Version: 3.1.3-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
I installed horde3 on etch using a clean system that had no previous horde/imp installation. After having carried out every single step in the installation checklist, changed the authorization bits and so on, I was able to access the configuration page and chose some requested options. As i generated the configuration horde3 was ipso-facto hosed since some fundamental parameters are actually missing in the conf files. At first scripts are stuck with the charset parameter not being specified in the conf global structure. Hacking the conf structure with an editor overcomes that problem but scripts then fail inexorably with the following error DB Error: not found [line 393 of /usr/share/horde3/lib/Horde/Prefs/sql.php] ... Unable to include the DB/.php file for 'Array'" I suggest to provide a reasonable default for each and every one parameter that might be otherwise left out of the conf files, given the complexity and size of the configuration. For some steps the documentation provided in README.Debian is inaccurate (admittedly the package is not simple either): eg the README suggests to create separately the session table, whereas it is created by default by the script that created the basic horde3 database (mysql), no file location for the 'php_flag session.auto_start Off' setting is provided (I found one in /etc/php4/apache/php.ini with a slighly different syntax. Is that the one?). The README makes reference to a link (``Configuration``) in the Administration menu that doesn't exist (maybe this is the real problem?) thank you for your efforts and sorry for my inability to stay concise. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages horde3 depends on: ii apache [httpd] 1.3.34-4 versatile, high-performance HTTP s ii libapache-mod-php4 6:4.4.4-8 server-side, HTML-embedded scripti ii php-log 1.9.8-1 Log module for PEAR ii php-pear 5.2.0-7 PEAR - PHP Extension and Applicati ii php4-domxml 6:4.4.4-8 XMLv2 module for php4 ii php4-pear 6:4.4.4-8 PHP Extension and Application Repo Versions of packages horde3 recommends: ii logrotate 3.7.1-3 Log rotation utility ii php-date 1.4.6-1 PHP PEAR module for date and time ii php-file 1.0.3-1 PHP Pear modules for common file a ii php-mail 1.1.6-2 PHP PEAR module for sending email ii php-mail-mime 1.3.1-1 PHP PEAR module for creating and d ii php-services-weather 1.4.0-1 acts as an interface to various on ii php4-gd [php4-gd2] 6:4.4.4-8 GD module for php4 ii php4-mcrypt 6:4.4.4-8 MCrypt module for php4 ii php4-mysql 6:4.4.4-8 MySQL module for php4 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
