How did you create it? Here is my full turba configuration, which was created using the configuration page of horde. In the relevant "Virtual File Storage" stanza I selected "SQL database" and "Horde defaults". I hope this clears it up a bit. Sorry for prefiltering the information and misleading you in fixing the bug. Please note, that in my bug report I also made a suggestion at the bottom of it, how I managed to fix this bug for me. horde:/srv/horde4/turba# cat config/conf.php <?php /* CONFIG START.
