installation help

[pitt]

i'm new to the roundcube webmail interface, actually all i'm trying to do is install this software for evaluation to see if its viable for what the university should use. i'm stuck on the installation url where it runs the php script (index.php) it appears that neither firefox or mozilla knows how to run this file. if anyone has the answer, i would greatly appreciate it.

Do you have PHP installed and working on your webserver?

If this is a fresh install, and you'll be using departments with their own domains for colleges in your uni, you may want to look at starting wtih bare hardware and the "Perfect Debian 4.0 setup" guide by Falko Timme and then using ISPConfig on top of that...

What are you running as webserver and do you have php installed and the module loaded?

To test your webserver's php config create a test page called info.php with following and place it in your webserver's root directory.

Code Select Expand

  <?php 
  phpinfo();
?>
Then open http://yourwebserver/info.php and if you get a result your server is working properly. If you don't get page displaying your your php config then you need to look at you webserver configuration.

Be sure to remove the test page after its up and running for security reasons.

Here is a nice little howto for debian webserver using lighttpd instead of apache, some of the versions are newer than the ones in the article so just use the latest relesase fro the ones it has you download and install from source.

Are you getting error page when you browse to index.php? Also, make sure that the uid that the webservice is running as has the necessary permissions to access the files.
