In places where a username or a password needs to be // used, refer to this placeholder reference: // %u -> gets substituted with the user // %p -> gets substituted with the plaintext password // %e -> gets substituted with the encrypted password // // 'query_lookup' => 'SELECT user_pass FROM horde_users WHERE user_uid = %u', // 'query_modify' => 'UPDATE horde_users SET user_pass = %e WHERE user_uid = %u', ) ); When the user tries to change his password, he gets this error: Notice: Only variable references should be returned by reference in /usr/share/horde3/passwd/lib/Driver.php on line 110 I resolved this error by changing the line 110 of Driver.php as follow: $ret = &new $class($params); return $ret; // return $ret = &new $class($params); Then, it runs without problem... I hope, this change will appears by the next release... :) Thu, 01 Feb 2007 05:45:02 -0500 http://bugs.horde.org/ticket/4964#t29063 I concur with this bug. Although I am using a mysql backend the setup was very similar and symptoms identical. I can also confirm that the fix works.
