Dear All,
anyone installed IMP4 on Centos 4.1 yet, http://www.horde.org/imp/4.0/
if so what problems did you have, I have a webmail server I am going to upgrade to Centos 4.1 and Imp 4 from its current centos 3.3 implementation and imp3
This is going to be a labour intensive manual task, and I wondered if anyone else out there was mad enough to have tried it already....
Failing that just advice on IMP4 installation on Centos 4.1 will be fine :-)
P.
From a posting I sent to the whitebox list -
############ I recently moved a couple of imap servers from Centos3 to 4 and I can confirm using dovecot is a lot more straight forward. The things I found you have to do are -
1. /etc/dovecot.conf uncomment "disable_plaintext_auth = no" 2. In the users homedirs move .mailboxlist to subfolder ~/mail/ and rename it .subscriptions 3. Move users imap folder files to subfolder ~/mail/ #############
This covers the transition from the imap2002 daemon to dovecot.

---- I have installed IMP on CentOS-4 and on CentOS-3 and RHEL-3 and there didn't seem to be much of a difference.

The difference and probably the problem (at least the most work) is the big change between Horde 2 / IMP 3 to Horde 3 / IMP 4. Configuration changed a lot, so some comparison is needed to convert settings.

--- yeah - I missed that. Horde 3.x / IMP 4.x is a whole different beast from Horde 2.2.x / IMP 3.2.x
follow the installation docs

Has Horde gotten any easier to install? I haven't fooled around with it in 2-3 years and remember having to wrestle with it to install on a RH 7.3 box. I'm always a bit shy about installing programs that have this huge underlying "framework" dependency to deal with in order to make it work. I do like the imp interface though.
Cheers,

---- I think that it has gotten somewhat easier to install. Horde 3 now has a web based administration module. You have to keep in mind that it is ambitious and considering that it traverses many daemons (an SQL db, apache, imap) and uses some sophisticated php (requiring some pear modules), etc. it isn't ever going to be a simple install. A good administrator should be able to make it work in 2 hours. I consider 4-5 hours for install, customization/editing preferences to be standard for install but for that, you now get webmail, shared contacts, shared calendars, nice interface to sieve/procmail, and shared task lists.

Easier to administer once you get it working. Most of the common configuration tasks can be done via administrative web interface (however, you'll still need to manually edit files to define your IMAP server(s), and some other stuff).
For installing, there's still lots of dependencies. The installation instructions are good, so simply following them brings you to the fully working system relatively fast. The biggest pain is that couple of PHP modules are not part of CentOS, but you can fetch them from Dag's repository (I have some of them too, if I can see about placing them somewhere on the web, but I said, Dag should also have most of them). There's also test page for horde and imp that will tell you if some required components are missing.

I did. Works fine. Mine was clean install, not and update. Note that some parts of IMP 3 are independent applications in IMP 4. Just follow the instructions, make sure you have all required PHP, Pear and Pecl modules (ant optional ones that you need), and you should be fine.
The only thing I had trouble with (bug in new Horde, will be fixed in next release) is that SQL-based sessions are not working. Simply use standard PHP-based sessions (which is default, anyhow) and you should be fine.
