Hi,
I was wondering if anyone had a more comprehensive tutorial for install webmail with ISPConfig3 ***AFTER*** ISPConfig3 is installed. I find this one hard to follow and have now reformatted my server for the 6th time this week because I was mucking around with files / things I did not understand. I am using Ubuntu 8.10 and can't say I'm very linux savvy. I know the bare basics.
This is a snippet off http://www.ispconfig.org/docs/INSTALL_UBUNTU_8.10.txt which I found hard to follow and ended up messing up big time.
10.2) Horde (Webmail) - horde.org
************************************************** *****************************
First of all, install the horde3 and Imp4 packages (Ubuntu/Debian)
___
apt-get install horde3 imp4 gollem kronolith2 mnemo2 nag2 turba2
pear install --onlyreqdeps Log Mail Mail_Mime MDB2 File Date
___
It is then necessary to setup an Alias for Apache.
If you want horde only on single pages, that are created with ispc3:
Add the following line to ISPConfig->Sites->Web Domain->Options->Apache directives
If you want to access webmail on all pages add the following line to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
###
Alias /horde3 /usr/share/horde3
###
Allow Apache to write horde configuration files :
___
chown -R www-data:www-data /etc/horde
___
Important parameters to change are (in Horde setup) :
###
Horde URL (change it to /horde3)
Enable Database Access. Do Not use MySQL Improved (4+), my attempts at using it failed. MySQL Standard runs fine however
Enable Authentication. I recommend IMAP authentication (something like {localhost:143/imap/notls}. Do not forget the /notls, not specifying failed on my setup). Also make sure to add your username to the list of Administrators, otherwise, you won’t have access to horde/imp4 parameters. Using anything else than IMAP seeemed to fail on my setup
Generate the configuration
Horde should now be setup. You now have to configure imp4
generate a configuration using the horde administration panel
modify the /etc/horde/imp4/servers.php file. Instruction are given inside the file concerning the syntax. If you run Courier-IMAP, and want Imp to automatically authenticate using horde credentials :
$servers[’imap’] = array(
‘name’ => ‘IMAP Server’,
’server’ => ‘localhost’,
‘hordeauth’ => true,
‘protocol’ => ‘imap/notls’,
‘port’ => 143,
‘folders’ => ‘INBOX.’,
‘namespace’ => ‘’,
‘maildomain’ => ‘domain.com’,
’smtphost’ => ‘localhost’,
’smtpport’ => 25,
‘realm’ => ‘’,
‘preferred’ => ‘’,
‘dotfiles’ => false,
‘hierarchies’ => array()
);
