[horde] Helpl: Cannot Login to Horde...

[KimJohn Quinn]

Hello all,

I'm pretty new to this so bear with me...

I have the following installed (All of which just downloaded):

- Horde
- CVS (Chora)
- Calendar (Kronolith)

Here are my settings in my config (horde.php):

$conf['auth']['params'] = array();

$conf['auth']['params']['phptype'] = 'mysql';
$conf['auth']['params']['hostspec'] = 's02-w2k';
$conf['auth']['params']['username'] = 'root';
$conf['auth']['params']['password'] = '';
$conf['auth']['params']['database'] = 'horde';
$conf['auth']['params']['table'] = 'horde_users';

and

$conf['prefs']['params']['phptype'] = 'mysql';
$conf['prefs']['params']['hostspec'] = 's02-w2k';
$conf['prefs']['params']['username'] = 'root';
$conf['prefs']['params']['password'] = '';
$conf['prefs']['params']['database'] = 'horde';
$conf['prefs']['params']['table'] = 'horde_prefs';


The database is there and working, I can log into it and see the users i
added.  I am running Horde in Apache on Linux but my MySQL db resides on a
windows box.

Problem is, when I get to the login screen for "horde" It just doesnt seem
to take for my user and pw.  Also sometimes I get errors about connecting to
the SQL Server.

I have another PHP application (mantis) which uses the MySQL and is working
fine so I think my settings are correct?

Here is a snippet from my log:

May 01 13:15:08 HORDE [error] [horde] FAILED LOGIN for dwampler

Any help would be appreciated, im beating my head against the wall...

Thanks.
