The conf.php files for each application are generated by Horde when  
you configure the application(s) via the administration setup  
interface.  The only conf.php.dist file that is shipped with Horde is  
horde/config/conf.php.dist and it is basically a boot-strap file, to  
get you into horde long enough to initially configure it.

Ralph Lang answered this question for you already. Find the  
$app_fileroot line that is commented out in registry.php and set it to  
the FULL path to the Horde directory fileroot.

Note that an application will NOT show up in the UI until *both* of  
the above items are taken care of.


Most of this is also covered in both the INSTALL files and  
http://horde.org/source/git.php.
