Hi,

I'm a new RoundCube user as of this evening.

I have mine setup on a vhost with no associated DNS for security through obscurity + SSL + basic auth. No problem, great tool, Thanks!! :-)

A couple of niggles though :

#1

During installation when you get to the end of stage 3 it does not appear to create the database or give any button/option to do so. I don't mind running a script, but it didn't seem to say to do that either. Certainly not prominently anyway. The wiki installation instructions (couldn't find any non-wiki ones) say to click the initialize database button, but for me with 0.2.1 there wasn't one. I'm happy to edit the wiki if that is a mistake or do some testing if the installation directory is at fault. The FAQ says "you forgot to run the included script" - is there a technical reason why it couldn't be run from the installer? Links :

"Why am I getting blank page instead of the login page?

This is probably because your database is not set up correctly (did you run the included .sql script?) or is not working. Look in logs/errors for more details. "

Trying to import my contacts from Mr Gmail :

gmail reports 1140 contacts export to vcard and grep for BEGIN and pass through wc agrees

import to roundcube tells me 800 entries imported doesn't report merging duplicates (if there are any) doesn't report any errors doesn't report that it failed to import 340 contacts.

IMO it should tell me that something wasn't as it should have been even if it is the duplicates thing.

So, I split the file into 2 chunks

fred@rwdlsd [08:17:48]:~$ wc contacts.vcf 6931 7798 130060 contacts.vcf

fred@rwdlsd [08:17:52]:~$ split -l 3998 contacts.vcf

fred@rwdlsd [08:22:24]:~$ grep BEGIN contacts.vcf | wc 1140 1140 14820 fred@rwdlsd [08:22:40]:~$ grep BEGIN xaa | wc 656 656 8528 fred@rwdlsd [08:23:38]:~$ grep BEGIN xab | wc 484 484 6292

fred@rwdlsd [08:23:41]:~$ wc xa* 3998 4523 75475 xaa 2933 3275 54585 xab 6931 7798 130060 total

All the numbers add up.

I import the first and larger one with replace whole book checked and it pulls in 479 or so, then i import the smaller file with the check box unchecked and it pulls in :

Successfully imported 286 contacts, 35 existing entries skipped:

Which *does* have a "skipped" message. Still, the numbers don't add up :

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=286%20plus%20479&aq=f&oq=

Less than the 800 the first time produced. Hmmmm.

What are the entries keyed off? email address? or title/name? 765 entries with the first having an ID of 801 thanks to previous import.

This is inconsistent no matter which way I look at it. Am I doing something wrong here too?

Thanks for any explanation/assistance.

Regards,

Fred. _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/users/
