Eh, mea culpa. I created a db with the "createdb --encoding=UNICODE --owner horde horde" command. And the --encoding=UNICODE was wrong... Now I dropped it and created the database without "--encoding=UNICODE" and everything is fine. Sorry.

With the RC2 the situation is the same...

That helps a lot. And it makes me wonder, which encoding does your public have? I.e. is the name in the comment block of the key utf-8 or iso-8859-1 encoded? Hm, I can only guess :( It could be iso-8859-2 :-o And how did you get that key in the first place? From http://thawte.com Did you export it from somewhere? From Thunderbird. Did you create it on the command line? If so, how? I created it through thawte's web interface...

Yes, but you said you trimmed a lot of text from it. Make sure you set the max_size setting for your Prefs backend appropriately - if that's the issue you may get better error info that way. I was now able to insert manualy the certificate without trimming out any text. I don't think that it's a data length problem. The pref_value is a "text" field.

Is the pref_value field too small for your key? I was able to put my key in db manualy. Can you try IMP 4.2 and Horde 3.2 (the release candidates)? I'll try... Are other preferences stored normally in your database? Yes. my pgp key is stored with no problems...

What do you mean with this? Sorry for my poor english :( So... 1. I have a clean database with no personal data. 2. I log into the website. 3. I upload my x.509 certificate 4. I can use it everything is fine 5. but there aren't any database entry in the database with my x.509 certificate (I think it's only in cache) SELECT * from horde_prefs where pref_uid='szimszon@xxxxxxxxxxx' and pref_name like 'smime_%'; pref_uid \| pref_scope \| pref_name \| pref_value -------------------------+------------+-----------------------+--------------------------------- hordewebmail=# 6. I del my x.509 certificate 7. after that there is 3 entry in the database: SELECT * from horde_prefs where pref_uid='szimszon@xxxxxxxxxx' and pref_name like 'smime_%'; pref_uid \| pref_scope \| pref_name \| pref_value -------------------------+------------+-----------------------+--------------------------------- szimszon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx \| imp \| smime_additional_cert \| szimszon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx \| imp \| smime_private_key \| szimszon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx \| imp \| smime_public_key \| hordewebmail=#

If I delete it on the webpage then 3 entry appears with pref_name='smime_public_key' and pref_name='smime_private_key' and pref_name='smime_additional_cert' with pref_value='' . What do you mean with this?

What happens if you try to import it? It works until I log off. And there's no database entry with pref_name='smime_public_key' and pref_name='smime_private_key'... There's no error message, nothing. If I delete it on the webpage then 3 entry appears with pref_name='smime_public_key' and pref_name='smime_private_key' and pref_name='smime_additional_cert' with pref_value='' .

I wonder if somebody could help me. I have an x.509 certificate from Thawte with some international characters: subject=/SN=Gyuris/GN=Szabolcs J\xC3\xA1nos/CN=Szabolcs J\xC3\xA1nos Gyuris I don't know what the problem is but my private certificate don't get saved to smime_private_key, smime_public_key... :( The certificate is originated from thunderbird backup system. After I try to import the cert to IMP everything seems to be ok but nothing happens in the database. But I was able to save my cert. manually to my postgresql database. I have to remove all the text from cert. before -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----... Thank you!
