[horde] Problem authenticating

[Brett]

Hi all,

I have installed the horde framework and kronolith (on rh7.3).

I am not sure how to add a user - I am using the system for the calendar
only.

My horde/config/horde.php is configured as follows:

$conf['auth']['params'] = array();
$conf['auth']['params']['phptype'] = 'mysql';
$conf['auth']['params']['hostspec'] = 'localhost';
$conf['auth']['params']['username'] = 'horde';
$conf['auth']['params']['password'] = '****';		//a valid
password is here
$conf['auth']['params']['database'] = 'horde';
$conf['auth']['params']['table'] = 'horde_users';	//I have tried
setting this to horde_prefs as well

$conf['prefs']['params']['phptype'] = 'mysql';
$conf['prefs']['params']['hostspec'] = 'localhost';
$conf['prefs']['params']['username'] = 'horde';
$conf['prefs']['params']['password'] = '*****';		//valid password
here
$conf['prefs']['params']['database'] = 'horde';
$conf['prefs']['params']['table'] = 'horde_prefs';

I have manually added a user into the horde_users table (insert into
horde_users values ("user",password("pass")) - have tried this with
password and plain text ), but have not added anything into the
horde_prefs table.

When I try log in, the login screen is reloaded.

What is the correct procedure for adding users? I know im probably doing
something wrong that's obvious, but can see it.

Thanks in advance
