Fixed, should be live soonish. Thanks for the heads up, that was  
written before we renamed the horde module.

These should be *absolute* paths, not relative. If you are serving  
horde directly from the webroot, i.e., www.example.com, $app_webroot  
should be "/". If you are serving it from a directory within the web  
server's webroot, i.e., www.example.com/horde, it should be "/horde".

Anything in the webserver/horde/error logs?

Can you navigate *directly* to any page within the install?
