[horde] latest cvs requires ldap rootdn?

[Joe Cave]

hi list,
just did clean cvs download of horde and on login i get the following:

A fatal error has occurred:
Required 'rootdn' not specified in preferences configuration.
[line 130 of /usr/local/apache/htdocs/mail/horde/lib/Prefs/ldap.php]
Details have been logged for the administrator.

so i look at the ldap.php the mentioned section:

$required = array('hostspec', 'basedn', 'uid', 'username', 'rootdn',
                          'password');

        foreach ($required as $val) {
            if (!isset($this->params[$val])) {
                Horde::fatal(PEAR::raiseError(sprintf(_("Required '%s' not specified in preferences configuration."), $val)), __FILE__, __LINE__);

and i'm not sure why its requiring the rootdn? previously i had each user able to manage their own ldap entry and could leave the rootdn commented out. if i configure the rootdn section of horde conf.php i login fine but i'd rather not have it set up like this. i haven't changed my ldap perms so maybe someone can help me figure out/explain why this is happening?

here's the relevant section of my horde conf.php:

// This is an example configuration for an LDAP preference backend.
// The schemas needed for ldap are in horde/scripts/ldap.  For more
// information see sources and comments in horde/lib/Prefs/ldap.php.
$conf['prefs']['driver'] = 'ldap';
$conf['prefs']['params']['hostspec'] = 'localhost';
$conf['prefs']['params']['port'] = '389';
$conf['prefs']['params']['basedn'] = 'ou=accounts,dc=ld,dc=dir';
$conf['prefs']['params']['uid'] = 'uid';
/*
 * The following is valid but would only be necessary if users
 * do NOT have permission to modify their own ldap accounts.
 */
//$conf['prefs']['params']['rootdn'] = 'cn=Manager,dc=ld,dc=dir';
//$conf['prefs']['params']['username'] = 'Manager';
//$conf['prefs']['params']['password'] = 'password';

here's my ldap perms:

defaultaccess none

access to * attr=userPassword,cn,sn,givenName,hordePrefs,impPrefs,turbaPrefs
        by self write
        by * auth

access to *
        by dn="cn=Manager,dc=ld,dc=dir" write
        by self read
        by * auth

# private addy book perms
access to dn="ou=(.+),ou=personal_addressbook,dc=ld,dc=dir"
        by dn="uid=$1,dc=ld,dc=dir" write
        by anonymous auth
        by * none

like i said, i haven't changed my ldap config at all and horde/prefs used to work fine. the only thing i've done is update horde today. any help is appreciated. thx.
