Installing Roundcube on Dreamhost

Friday, January 13th, 2006

I followed Hookturns’ guide to installing Roundcube on Dreamhost a few days ago, but I used a more recent version (roundcubemail-cvs-20051216.tar.gz) and found that it still worked with the following changes:

  1. After Hookturns’ Step 4, change config/*.php.dist to *.php
  2. In Hookturns’ Step 6, line 54 is now line 57.

I haven’t tested my Roundcube installation thoroughly, but I was able to log in and send mail; I didn’t see any obvious errors.

Just for reference, in the Dreamhost domain management settings, I had “Run PHP as CGI” selected, but not “PHP Version 5.” This may be the default, but I was tempted to use PHP 5; maybe you will be too.
