[SM-USERS] re: Latest global addressbook database backend

[Sean M Keogh]

I've got personal address books running on the database and decided to 
give the patched 1.4.1 files from Tomas a try.  I created the relevant 
table in the same database (and populated it with 46 records), backed up 
the files that were to be changed and then copied in the patched 
versions.  The result?  Nothing...at all.  The global addressbook, which 
was originally running from a flat file, was no longer showing.  There 
were no error messages, the global addressbook simply no longer shows up 
on the address books page.  It is not even as if it can't find the 
database (I would expect to get an error from that).  It is just like a 
global addressbook is not being run...just like when the parameters for 
the flat-file version are commented out in addressbook.php

It is very puzzling.

This is the current 1.4.1 squirrelmail (stable), Mysql 4.0.11 running on 
Mandrake Linux 9.1 and Apache 1.3.27.

The main reason for going for a database backend on the global 
addressbook was to get the address groups plugin working, as it seems to 
require that both personal and global books are running from the same 
type of sourse, otherwise it accepts entries to the group, but won't 
display any of them.

I've spent the last several hours puzzling over this.  Can anyone shed 
any light?  If you need more information on versions, or what I did then 
please let me know.  I'm assuming that *someone* has got the global 
addressbook running from a database backend on 1.4.1?

best regards
