Need Roundcube 0.2.2 install help on Plesk for dummies ...
« on: July 29, 2009, 04:36:16 PM »
I am not experienced with unix, php & databases, but understand enough to do basic work. I am trying to install roundcube on one website in the plesk 8.6 environment (php 5.2.9-2) using the GUI.

  • - I have uploaded the roundcube files to the /httpdocs/ directory of the website needing roundcube webmail.  I named the directory rcm.  
  • - I have created a database using plesk and named it "roundcubemail" and I created a database user named "roundcube"
  • - I changed the permissions of temp & logs to 777 or -rwxrwxrwx
  • - I changed the file names of db.inc.php.dist & main.inc.php.dist removing the ".dist" from each
  • - I changed the line in main.inc.php to

$rcmail_config['enable_installer'] = true;

  • - I went to  http://mydomain/rcm/installer/ and it went to ../rcm/installer/?_step=3
    and passed the Check config files, and passed the Check if directories are writable.
So here's where I am stuck.  The next part of the report , "Check configured database settings" I get this:

Code: [Select]
Check configured database settings

DSN (write):  NOT OK(MDB2 Error: connect failed)
Make sure that the configured database exists and that the user has write privileges
DSN: mysql://roundcube:pass@localhost/roundcubemail

So if anyone is feeling really patient with me - I really want to get this installed and working on my web site and I don't have a clue as to where to go from here.  

Many thanks in advance :)
