[Show Quoted Text - 10 lines][Hide Quoted Text] After a successull install yesterday my horde installation stopped working at some point in the night. All you got is a blank screen when attempting to access any horde/* page. The apache log is full of this error: [Wed Oct 31 20:25:27 2012] [error] [client w.x.y.z] PHP Fatal error: Base lambda function for closure not found in /var/www/horde/imp/config/prefs.php on line 72 Restarting apache "fixed" it for now, lets see for how long. Try adding this to your php.ini [APC] apc.shm_size = "256M" apc.rfc1867 = "1"

With APC installed I get: Base lambda function for closure not found in /var/www/config/prefs.php on line 341 When my device (android 4.1 activesync) synchronises. I understand this is not the same as the line 72 error, which I get when APC is not installed. BTW: I would really be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction for how to I install the php patch Many thanks, Michael

I am getting this error too. I have removed APC and still get this problem. The origin IP addresses are for web browser clients and activesync devices. Restarting apache temporarily resolves the issue. Any ideas what else might cause this?

What about trying it without APC completely? intriguing approach to the problem :-) After removing apc from my system and a restart of apache the problem went away and the hole horde system seems to be running stable since then, aka no more entries in the apache error log. From some old installation docs on the web I got the impression that apc is needed to run horde, so I installed it on monday when I started on my horde adventure. Your standard documention does not mention it at all, my fault at not stopping there in the first place first. Thanks!!!

This is a bug in APC that's incompatible with some advanced features of PHP 5.3 that we use. Update to the latest beta version of APC. So I removed php-apc package from my ubuntu distro (12.04 TLS) and installed it via pecl install apc-beta, answered all experimental questions with yes and restarted apache. Neverless the error returns after a while (Base lambda in prefs.php). So this is either not the same apc we are talking about or the error is otherwise related.
