Create a new database and a database user for RoundCube (see DATABASE SETUP) +4. Create database tables using the queries in file 'SQL/*.initial.sql' + (* stands for your database type) +5.

Done! + + +DATABASE SETUP +============== + +* MySQL +------- +Setting up the mysql database can be done by creating an empty database, +importing the table layout and granting the proper permissions to the +roundcube user. Here is an example of that procedure: + +# mysql +> CREATE DATABASE 'roundcubemail'; +> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON roundcubemail.* TO roundcube@localhost + IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; +> quit +# mysql roundcubemail < SQL/mysql.initial.sql + +For MySQL version 4.1 and up, it's recommended to create the database for +RoundCube with the following command: +> CREATE DATABASE 'roundcubemail' DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci; + + +* SQLite +-------- +Sqlite requires specifically php5 (sqlite in php4 currently doesn't +work with roundcube), and you need sqlite 2 (preferably 2.8) to setup +the sqlite db (sqlite 3.x also doesn't work at the moment). Here is +an example how you can setup the sqlite.db for roundcube: + +# sqlite -init SQL/sqlite.initial.sql sqlite.db + +Make sure your configuration points to the sqlite.db file and that the +webserver can write to the file. + + +* PostgreSQL +------------ +To use RoundCube with PostgreSQL support you have to follow the next +simple steps, which have to be done with the postgres system user (or +which ever is the database superuser): + +$ createuser roundcubemail +$ createdb -O roundcubemail roundcubemail +$ psql roundcubemail + +roundcubemail =# ALTER USER roundcube WITH PASSWORD 'the_new_password'; +roundcubemail =# \c - roundcubemail +roundcubemail => \i SQL/postgres.initial.sql + +All this has been tested with PostgreSQL 8.0.x and 7.4.x. Older +versions don't have a -O option for the createdb, so if you are +using that version you'll have to change ownership of the DB later. CONFIGURATION ============= -Change the files in /config/ according your environment and you needs. +Change the files in config/* according your to environment and your needs.
