Double check your config/db.inc.php file. Look for this string:
$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://:@localhost/';

And change to your needs. Make sure your db.inc.php is renamed, and same goes for main.inc.php.

Hope this helps.

I'm getting the same error. My connection string is 100% right. It's the same as in my old Roundcube RC1 installation.

I copied the 0.1 stable files in a new directory. Did not run any .sql update script because I didn't think it was necessary. Configured the two configuration files and saved without .dist extension. Gave full write attributes to folders: temp and logs.

Anything I missed? The old Roundcube installation is working fine with the exact same database connection string.

Fixed it. @commin: did you use the /installer ? Just go to http://www.yourdomain.com/roundcubemail-0.1/installer/ . It gave me the hints I needed to get it working.

For me, I had to change db.inc.php, this line:
$rcmail_config['db_backend'] = 'mdb2';

Had to change 'mdb2' to 'db', now it's working.

NOT for me.. :eek:

I installed the latest stable and had the same error. Changed mdb2 to "db" and now it just shows a blank screen. No errors, nothing...
