I Found the 5.6 at the duch and 6.0 on the hungarian and the english server. The size of the 6.0 is reduced down from ca 330 MB to ca 270 MB. How gan this be ? Is there anything left out or is it due to compression ? Downloading for testing now.

[Boris]

Just rsynced it, verified md5sum and install from ISO to vmware.
Looks good even with reduced size!
I wonder what was dropped out? some debugging development pieces?

From the lists:

---------------
    Thanks for catching this. It seems that a typo in a build
configuration file has resulted in several of the kernel packages being
excluded. We didn't notice it in testing, as we could not test on all
supported platforms.
    We've pulled the iso, and we're fixing the problem. Stay tuned, and
thank you for your continuing patience.

    Regards,
    Mike

Hold you breath for just a little while

Is that bad? I already installed the damn thing (only my webmail broke).

A fatal error has occurred:

DB Error: connect failed

[line 108 of /home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php]

[Peter]

Should the news section on contribs.org be changed to reflect this 'bad' iso version, giving file sizes etc.?

I have just wasted an hour downloading it....

Peter.

[Arne]

It is obvious that it has happened some kind of accident during the last phase of prepering the iso. Something has just gone lost. Of cource I'm not in the Mitel team, but I beleieve accidents can happen and that they will be ready with a new iso quite soon. At least I hope so

[Arne]

I can see that the size of the download from the english download site is now increased from 270 tp 334 MB. I guess it now works OK. Thanks a lot mr Wang !

I apologize for being a total newbie to Linux.  I just downloaded what seems to be the new release on Friday (12/12/03).  I installed SME 6.0 from the CD on a virgin machine, then restored a desktop backup from a 6.0b2 server.  However, I am getting the PHP error when accessing webmail, namely:

"A fatal error has occurred:

DB Error: connect failed

[line 108 of /home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php]

Details have been logged for the administrator."


In checking the log, it says:

Dec 13 01:42:04 blackbox HORDE[1997]: [imp] DB Error: connect failed:  [nativecode=Access denied for user: 'horde@localhost' (Using password: YES)] ** Array [on line 108 of "/home/httpd/html/horde/lib/Prefs/sql.php"]

Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?  If I can fix it using Dan Brown's excellent howto for changing the mysql password (see http://www.familybrown.org/howtos/mysql-password-howto.html), what is the name and path of the database in question?  IF that's not the solution, does anyone have any suggestions?

Many thanks in advance!

I've downloaded and installed this new bigger version, but I still have the same problem.

[Aleck Johnson]

I'm having the same problem Thor Anthrax mentioned, with the new version (342 MB, timestamped 12/11/2003 at 4:03pm).

Any insights as to what might be causing this?

Thanks!
