>>>
>>> Script not updated: There was an error activating the script. The

>>>
>>> I try this with my logs set to debug, and a 'tail -f' on the log  
>>> file, but no error output winds up in the horde log.
>>>
>>> I'm current with regards to all things horde and all things pear

>>> from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1).
>>>
>>> I use sendmail with procmail on a Debian Squeeze system.  I use  
>>> mbox file format, and the path to the procmail binary is  
>>> /usr/bin/procmail.  The horde vfs set in the hord config is /tmp.   
>>> Ftp has been tested from the local host and is working on port 21.  
>>>  Ingo settings: Conf Storage driver = SQL conf[Storage][Params] =  
>>> Horde Defaults.

>>> Here is the cogent portions of my backends.local.php (I took out
