Hey Jan, thank you for that. That certainly was the obstacle.
However, I have to say, I read and re-read the docs over several
times, I didn't see that written anywhere. I see the line that says:
"You can't use the updated data with your old Horde version anymore.",
but that does not mean "make sure you install your horde update in a
fresh directory" (at least it didn't to me, unless I'm missing it
somewhere else). I just wonder if a quick line in the install or
quick install section might make this clearer, such as "mv
/var/www/horde /var/www/oldhorde" and then commence with the
instruction. Of course, that is just my two cents, but it might
reduce a few cries for help in the future.
Thanks again, I'm up and running now.
