Info regarding installation of CVS - 2.3.7

[Christopher Crowley]

I am configuring IMP from CVS. I downloaded HORDE, IMP and TURBA on Oct.
10th.

Currently, my configuration is:
HORDE: 1.3.5-cvs

Solaris 8
-->PHP 4.0.4pl1
PEAR
Apache 1.3.19
IMAP 2000 (on seperate server)
mod_ssl-2.8.3-1.3.19
mm-1.1.3
openssl-0.9.6a
rsaref-2.0
gpg (GnuPG) 1.0.6


I have a couple of questions.

1. GPG support? I see in the docs directory how to configure it. But, the
configure files that are referenced don't exist.

2.This is slightly outside the scope of Horde list, as it is a PHP CVS
installation question. Please skip to #3 if this bothers you.   Suggestions
for PHP CVS installation? I have multiple webservers on this machine. I need
to install PHP so that it is included in this apache server only. Can I
'make' the PHP CVS in the apache build directory like I would do with a
tarball?

3. Would my down_rev PHP cause an error reading e-mail?
Webpage error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: localeconv() in
/space/local/apache_php2/htdocs/horde/horde/imp/lib/../../lib/MIME/Structure
.php on line 125

4. Would my down_rev PHP cause an error storing preferences?
I used the horde/scripts/db/prefs.sql to create the horde_prefs table in my
horde database. But preferences are still not retained from session to
session.

5. The weird one. I was able to login at one point. However, I changed the
horde.php file to contain specific mySQL database information:
$conf['prefs']['params'] =
array(servername=>'localhost',username=>'hordemgr',password=>'n0tr3allymYP@s
s',port
=>5123);
 /// $conf['prefs']['params'] = array('localhost','hordemgr','passwd');

And logins stopped working. The mail server shows that I have authenticated
via IMAP . But the session is not stored on the HORDE / IMP webserver.  I
tried a number of things, but to no avail. I can no longer get a session.
The only other change that I made around that time was to implement the
SECURITY suggestions regarding ownership and permissions on the config
directories.  However, I rolled that change back to no avail.

Thank you for any solutions or suggestions for trouble shooting.
