[horde] Horde configuration generation fails

Okay... I made some changes to my apache configuration, and I think I'm 
closer, but still not there.

For starters, I moved the webmail setup (on the file system). First, I 
had  "http://www.domain.com/webmail/horde/", where "webmail" was 
symlinked to a folder at a parent level of "www.domain.com." After the 
change, I now have a new virtual host, "http://mail.domain.com"/. Horde 
is found at "http://mail.domain.com/horde/".

Now, when I run the configuration (from the mail subdomain), I get a 
"download config.php" box. Interestingly, this file is blank.

I re-verified filesys permissions, and the apache user has write access 
to the horde/config and horde/admin/setup directories (and to the files 
inside them), and proper read and execute permissions (as needed) to the 
rest of the folders and files.

I have added a <Directory> entry in my httpd.conf, and added ExecCGI, 
MultiViews and FollowSymLinks. I can't imagine these settings are an 
issue, because I also have SquirrelMail installed (I want both Horde and 
SquirrelMail installed, to give my users the option), and it works fine.

I checked my apache logs for the mail.domain.com vhost, and the error 
logs are blank. My access log shows (where, the x.x.x.x is my 
workstation IP):

x.x.x.x - - [25/Dec/2005:11:48:12 -0700] "GET 
/horde/services/javascript.php?file=form_sections.js&app=horde HTTP/1.1" 
200 742 "http://mail.domain.com/horde/admin/setup/config.php" 
"Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5"

I'm not sure if this matters, but my server is running SuSE Linux 
Enterprise 9.

Suggestions?
