Installing RoundCube on cPanel server
Looking for installing roundcube on Linux cPanel Dedicated servers then you can just follow the steps given below !!!
Firstly we need to remove roundcube files/folders/databases from our server if we have any older version. Follow the instructions given below :-
” Uninstall/remove exiting RoundCube “
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
rm -rf roundcube*
mysql -e ‘drop database roundcube’;
/scripts/upcp
Now try to download Roundcube version from its website which we can install on our server :-
Download latest version from :- http://roundcube.net/downloads. once downloded you need to unzip it (using WinZip or ZipGenius or tar -xzf roundcubemail-0.1.tar.gz) in the current directory.
Now we will start with installation procedure :-
” Install stall latest roundcube “
cd /usr/local/cpanel/base
wget -O roundcube.tar.gz http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/
roundcubemail/roundcubemail-0.2.1.tar.gz
rm -rf roundcube.tar.gz
mv -f roundcubemail-0.2.1/ roundcube
cd roundcube
chmod -R 777 temp
chmod -R 777 logs
We will have to create databases, database user and install the intial sql file. Use following commands :-
”Database Configuration”
mysql -e “CREATE DATABASE roundcube;”
mysql -e “GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON roundcube.* TO roundcube@localhost
IDENTIFIED BY ‘DATABASEPASSWORD’;”
mysql -e “FLUSH PRIVILEGES;”
mysql -e “use roundcube; source SQL/mysql.initial.sql;”
You will have to replace the roundcube password with ‘DATABASEPASSWORD’ field.
“Configuring RoundCube”
cd config
mv db.inc.php.dist db.inc.php
mv main.inc.php.dist main.inc.php
then open database configuration file using favorite editors like vi or pico, file name db.inc.php
vi db.inc.php
Find following line
$rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] = ‘mysql://roundcube:pass@localhost/roundcubemail’;
Replace it with $rcmail_config['db_dsnw'] =’mysql://roundcube:DATABASEPASSWORD@localhost/roundcube’;
Now open main.inc.php
vi main.inc.php
Find
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = ”; replace with
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = ‘localhost’;
Finally just restart mysql cpanel services on your dedicated server….that’s all 
you have installed Roundcube on your cPanel Dedicated Server !!!!
