Having (received help from here and) managed to install Horde Group, having
sucessfully run /horde/test.php and verified that PHP sessions work and can
be unregistred, having verified that nothing is written to the PHPlog and
error_reporting set to E_ALL, having checked in mySQL that
horde.user_table contain a single line (the administrative user, and
(presumably) encrypted password) then finally I call /horde/.   I'm
redirected to the login.php page. I use the username and password I gave
to the setup.php script, but I'm thrown right back to the login.php page.

The Apache logs shows no errors, and the access_log shows a GET on /horde,
a GET on /horde/login.php, then a POST to /horde/login.php, a GET on
/horde/index.php, before we get the net GET on /horde/login.php.

I've checked the FAQ on login failure and believe I've tried everything
mentioned there.  Tried using both Firefox and Explorer (from XP).  Horde
running on PHP Version: 5.1.6, mySQL 5.0.27, NetBSD 3.0.

I'm out of ideas and suggestinos are mose welcome.  For example: How to
turn on logging in Horde (grep'ing for "log" in horde/docs doesn't turn up
anything interesting).

I hope this isn't trivial, and sorry if this is.  But when you're stuck,
you're stuck.
