First, what version of Horde are you using (Released or CVS) ?
Horde 2.2.5 (Stable version) IMP 3.2.5 (Stable version)
Second, did you use 'rpm' files or tar files ?
tar
Third, have you installed 'pear' modules ? Use batch command, like #pear install <module name>.
Yes.
Sorry. In my rush (some visitors arrived) I forgot to include those sort of details, which I included in the horde post.

Hi all
Any Horde users out there?
I'm really beating my head against a wall about this one. I'm trying to get Horde running, have it all installed with dependencies and all. The test page reports all ok. I get the login screen fine - but that's it. I try logging in and it accepts my login info but just dumps me back on the login page with both the username and password cleared. That's it.
I look at the logs and it reports successful login. I am using imp for authentication. If I click on the mail link on the bottom toolbar of the login page and then enter the username and password, then it actually loads IMP (the webmail) and seems to work OK, as long as I don't use the toolbar at the bottom.
I've tried using sql (mysql) as authentication for horde, and it works the first time as long as I don't click anywhere else (ie cannot open anything else after loggin on). Every time after that it does the same as above (dumps me back on login screen without any error message and with username cleared).
I think it has something to do with cookies and sessions (using file based sessions in PHP). What seems to happen is that when I first load the login page, a session is started on the server. The successful login then seems to create/use a different session identifier and dumps the data into that, whilst the horde application keeps using the original one (which has no auth credentials in it so horde thinks no logon yet). What am I missing? It's gotta be something bizzare on the session handling under horde.
I've done lots of googling and haven't come up with anything (google or the horde mailling lists which I am also joining and seeking help from). I'm either searching with the wrong phrases or there's nothing out there. I've come across similar problems - same symptoms, but no fixes.
Anyone got any clues???? or links to good info on sessions in php?
