Normally, you don't need the database created before you start the
configuration, but it does help to have a blank db and a user with the
rights to edit it before you start.
Assuming you have a database user (with password) to use, you should
be able to create the db using the script.

4. Creating databases
Once you created the database configuration in the previous step, you
can create all database tables by hitting the Update all DB schemas
button in the configuration screen.
Please note that this requires the database that you entered in the
database configuration to already exist, and the configured database
user to have sufficient permissions to create new tables in this
database.
Alternatively you can run the bin/horde-db-migrate script in the Horde
directory from the command line.
