In horde4/config/conf.php I have these settings:

$conf['log']['priority'] = 'INFO';
$conf['log']['ident'] = 'HORDE';
$conf['log']['name'] = '/tmp/horde.log';
$conf['log']['params']['append'] = true;
$conf['log']['params']['format'] = 'default';
$conf['log']['type'] = 'file';

Using the Horde configuration under tab "Logging" I now change the  
type from "File" to "Syslog", which will produce the following conf.php:

$conf['log']['priority'] = 'INFO';
$conf['log']['ident'] = 'HORDE';
$conf['log']['name'] = /tmp/horde.log;
$conf['log']['type'] = 'syslog';

This breaks the configuration, since the filename isn't surrounded by  
''. The GUI insists that filename is required, even though the log  
type is now "Syslog". Therefore you have to manually delete the line  
$conf['log']['name'] from conf.php in order the get the installation  
to work again.
