This is a known problem that happens inside a Horde library when the  
configuration is wrong. I don't plan to fix or workaround this before  
the RC1.

Nothing was logged, see below.

The script is using the default log file location, like your regular  
horde install does. But the log file was created from your original  
install with the permissions of the web server user.

This is probably the usual issue people are experiencing with the most  
recent horde versions and wrong cookie settings. But maybe I can check  
for these settings in the setup script.

Please remove it. This is *not* the official RC1 and should not be  
used for any other purpose than what I asked for. I don't want two  
different RC1s floating around at some point.
