Creating the MySQL? Database

cd /var/www/html/horde/scripts/sql

vi create.mysql.sql

Then change the database password

mysql -u root -p < create.mysql.sql

Horde

Firstly you need to install the distribution default configuration files, present in the config subdirectory within each Horde application (including the base Horde library itself):

cd /var/www/html/horde

for a in . mnemo nag turba imp ingo kronolith passwd; do cd /var/www/html/horde/$a/config; for f in *.dist; do cp $f `basename $f .dist`; done; done

and then set the correct file permissions:

cd /var/www/html

chown -R apache:apache horde

chmod -R o-rwx horde

You now need to configure all the Horde applications. Log in to your Horde installation, at http://your.host.name/horde/. Once you're in, click on the Administration link on the sidebar, then the Setup sub-option. Default Administrator password is mailadmin. You should see a list of available Horde applications in the main frame - you now need to go through this list and configure each Horde application as you please. Click on an entry in this list; you should be brought to a configuration screen. Go through each tab within this screen (if there are multiple tabs; otherwise there will just be a single page) and change any settings as you see fit (although the default options are usually sufficient if you don't feel comfortable editing all the available variables). Once you have finished configuring an application, click on the Generate XXX Configuration button at the bottom of the page to auto-generate the relevant conf.php file for the specific application. Repeat this process for every application in the Setup page.
