Setup RoundCube In PLESK

[bpat1434]

That will only work if you have a VPS or dedicated server. If you're using a "shared" hosting account or a(n) "(over)reseller" account, then you probably can't just change the /usr dirs at all.

But glad that it's not too difficult!! I'm sure a new template could be created so that Roundcube is a button on the webmail tab in the control panel

I think there might be an other way to fix it...
_________________________________________________
1)Put the webmail checkbox off at mail preferences...As everything goes right then this will remove the DNS record...otherwise you'll have to do this yourself at DNS management.

2)Create a new subdomain and name it webmail.

3)Install RoundCube there.

Didn't test it...but i think it would work...

The only issue I've got is that the button called webmail in plesk won't work anymore...I just ticked the box off at the mail preferences

This issue is wsa easily fixed for me with the following simple steps:

1. Create a new folder in psa-horde called imp
2. Create a new PHP file w/ the following code:

Code Select Expand

<?php header(&quot;location: http://&quot;.$_SERVER[&quot;SERVER_NAME&quot;]); ?>3. Name the PHP file login.php
4. Upload login.php to the new imp directory

I successfully used this method in Plesk 8.2 running on CentOS 5. This should redirect the mail button to http://webmail.domain.com. If not, at least you know where the mail button points and you can play with it from there...

Cheers!

If you are planning on upgrading to Plesk 8.4 from 8.3 or below make sure to restore your original horde installation, as the autoupdate fails and in my case caused apache to become non-functional. After Plesk has updated Horde you can re-back up Horde, and then reinstall RC.

Hi all there,

I've successfully added Roundcube as default webmail. Here's a little howto:

1.) Download Roundcube 0.3beta
It's really stable and has new api for plugins.
Perhabs you may also use SVN-Version and keep it updated. But I've not tested.

2.) Unpack RoundCube on your local machine...
... NOT on your server, because you must make some changes.

3.) Login into your Plesk account
3.1.) Click on the "Home" and than on "Database Servers"
3.2.) Click in the server list on the icon "... access this server via DB WebAdmin"
    in the line "Local MySQL server (default for MySQL)"
3.3.) phpMyAdmin should be opened
3.4.) Create a new database called "roundcube"
3.5.) Browse on your local machine to the folder "/roundcubemail/SQL"
    and oben the file "mysql.initial.sql" with notepad.
3.6.) Copy all and paste it, after clicking on the "SQL"-Tab in phpMyAdmin,
    to the large textarea. Than click "Go".
    Now you've created our roundcube database.
3.7.) In phpMyAdmin click in left frame on the "Home"-icon and select in right
    frame "Privileges". In the "User owerview" click on the icon "Add a new user".
3.8.) Add like follow:
    - Username (use text field): yourusername
    - Host (Local): localhost
    - Password (use text field): yourpassword
    - Retype: yourpassword
    - Click "Go".
3.9.) Scroll down to "Database-specific privileges" and select "roundcube"
    in the dropdown list called "Add privileges on the following database".
    After that click on "Check All" in "Database-specific privileges" and than click on "Go"
3.10.) Check your Privileges again:
    - Click on the Tab "Privileges"
    - You should see in the table yourusername - localhost - Yes - USAGE - No

4.) Create config/db.inc.php for RoundCube:
    On your local machine copy the folow lines to the new file "/roundcubemail/config/db.inc.php"

?>6.) Create imp/login.php and imp/index.php for RoundCube:
With this new files, it is posibble to click on Plesk "Open Webmail" Link.
    On your local machine copy the folow lines to the new file "/roundcubemail/imp/login.php" AND "/roundcubemail/imp/index.php"
<?php
header('Location: ./../');
exit();
?>7.) Uploading ...
7.1) Backup the original psa-horde!
Browse on your server, best is if you use WinSCP (logged in as root), to the folder "/usr/share/" and rename "psa-horde" to "psa-horde-BK".
7.2) Create in "usr/share/" a new folder "psa-horde".
7.3) Open on your local machine the folder of "roundcube/".
7.4) Select all files and upload them to your server.

8.) Comments
- Note: You make this on your own risk
- Note: Updates on your new "psa-horde" won't work, it's in reality "roundcube"
- Note: Before you make an update/upgrade with Plesk make a backup of your folder "psa-horde"
- Please comment if any of this HowTo is not clear
- Please ask, if you have problems
- Sorry for my bad english ....

Regards
Michael

Is the name of the new folder ps-horde or psa-horde?
And do i have to copy the folder rouncube with it or only the files that are stored in the folder roundcube?

greetings

[lullo]

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your how to. I followed it but when I open webmail the first time I get an error in my browser:

Fatal error: ini_set/set_include_path does not work.

Can you help me out with that?

1. The name of the new folder is psa_horde
2. Only the files and subdirs (recursive) stored in roundcube

Do your really have updated the files

Here's another solution to get Roundcube work with Plesk:

http://www.roundcubeforum.net/general-discussion/5034-how-install-roundcube-plesk.html

It replaces the installed AtMail with Roundcube.

[samtylor]

i did everything.. but webmail.mydomain.com is a blank page :S

same here.... I also followed the instructions, but no luck

[ircteknik]

hi...i setup roundcube in psa-horde ... it working but when i try to delete mails on my webmail...it not working? why i cant delete my mails? can anyone help me about it?

[mk.keck]

the problems with blank page seems to be happen if the roundcube started the first time for the logged into mail-account. Silly reload the page and it would work perfect.
