[imp] Database connectivity error

[Bill Hilburn]

You can make the command line simpler: mysql -u horde -p horde

That reads "User = horde, using password, Database = horde" localhost is assumed
here.

Did you login to your MySQL server and create the horde user & privileges using
GRANT?

Did you flush privileges or reload MySQL?

Your command used "-h localhost" but the return message says
"horde at mail.example.com" which indicates to me that your /etc/hosts is
incorrect, it should have this line:

127.0.0.1        localhost


If your not using DNS but instead using your /etc/hosts file you should add
other lines for any other resolution you need and not change the 127.0.0.1 line.

*ATTENTION EVERYONE*

You should only use the domain example.com if your on a *closed* network, *NO*
Internet connection, *NO* DNS!

Why you ask, Because the domain example.com is a real registered domain, it was
registered and reserved for the use of printed technical material and "examples".

So, in your current configuration, if you setup your machine as mail.example.com
with an internet connection using external DNS then it will not resolve properly.
