Howto: Horde Groupware Webmail for Gentoo Linux

This is a short Howto/Example how I set up my Horde with its applications like Webmail, Groupware, PGP (GnuPG), Sieve filters, LDAP Auth,...
Here are some commands for installing Horde 4 over PEAR.

# Set your paths
BASEDIR=/var/www/horde-test.gabosh.net
PEARDIR=$BASEDIR/pear
WEBDIR=$BASEDIR/htdocs

rm /usr/bin/phpize
ln -s /usr/lib/php*/bin/phpize /usr/bin/phpize

mkdir -p $PEARDIR/pear
mkdir -p $WEBDIR
pear config-create $PEARDIR $PEARDIR/pear.conf
pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install pear

$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf channel-discover pear.horde.org
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install horde/horde_role
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install run-scripts horde/Horde_Role

$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/imp
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/kronolith
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/ingo
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/nag
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/turba
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/mnemo
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/passwd
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/gollem
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf install -a -B horde/wicked

chown -R root:root $BASEDIR
find $BASEDIR -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find $BASEDIR -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
chown apache:root $WEBDIR/static
chown apache:root $WEBDIR/config
chown apache:root $WEBDIR/*/config

After these steps you should be able to open your Horde installation into your Webbrowser and create the basic configurations.
Do this in the left menu under "Administration" -> "Configuration"
After that you can follow up with the configuration of the configfiles in the config-directories you see below.



Here some steps for upgrading your Horde:
# Set yout paths
BASEDIR=/var/www/horde-test.gabosh.net
PEARDIR=$BASEDIR/pear
WEBDIR=$BASEDIR/htdocs

rm /usr/bin/phpize
ln -s /usr/lib/php*/bin/phpize /usr/bin/phpize
chmod 755 $PEARDIR/pear/pear
$PEARDIR/pear/pear -c $PEARDIR/pear.conf upgrade -a -B -c horde

chown -R root:root $BASEDIR
find $BASEDIR -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
find $BASEDIR -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
chown apache:root $WEBDIR/static
chown apache:root $WEBDIR/config
chown apache:root $WEBDIR/*/config

If you want to use this solution you need the following howto(s) finished:

This is an optional script for syncing/copying a Horde-Installation into an new path. E.g. for moving a test Horde into production.

#!/bin/bash
