I've tried it from scratch.
I downloaded horde framework, copied *.php.dist to *.php,
setup a DB password for pgsql, inserted default row into horde_users table
and tries to login.

error was the same.
Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the
current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

be sure /tmp is writeable to the application.

my PHP version is 4.2.3
