Kapot,

try Doug's suggestions & Let us know if it works.

Probably #1. For #2 I've seen where horde logs show can't connect to socket
mysql.sock rather than just db error. Is DB error screen output or from the
logs? What does the horde.log show?

A couple of things:

1. Did you run the sql script in the scripts dir to setup the tables?

2. I had a similar problem and it ended up that it kept looking for the
mysql.sock in /tmp instead of where it was. (/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock)
