mnemo2 for Debian
-----------------
To configure this package use the horde3 web configuration. To let
it write to the configuration files you have to change of conf.php
file in /etc/horde/mnemo2 to owned by www-data.
You need to create /etc/horde/mnemo2/conf.php.bak file and change
owner to www-data or change owner of /etc/horde/mnemo2 to www-data.
If you do not do that you have to cut from the web configuration
program and paste into the config file yourself.
The reason why this is not the default option is, that allow writing
to configuration files without any authentication is a big
security hole.
.....................................................................
Some notes from upstream INSTALL document follow here:
Prerequisites
=============
To function properly, Mnemo requires the following:
1. SQL support in PHP.
Mnemo stores its data in an SQL database. Build PHP with whichever SQL
driver you require;
Configuring Mnemo
=================
1. Configuring Horde for Mnemo
a. Configuring a DataTree backend
Mnemo requires a permanent ``DataTree`` backend in Horde to manage
notepads and to add notes to notepads. If you didn't setup a DataTree
backend yet, go to the configuration interface, select Horde from the
list of applications and select a driver different than ``None`` on the
``DataTree System`` tab. Make sure that you ran the necessary scripts
to create a storage backend for the DataTree system, e.g. one of the
``create.*.sql`` or ``horde_datatree.*.sql`` SQL scripts in
``horde/scripts/sql/``. You should have done this already during the
installation of Horde.
2. Creating the database table
The specific steps to create the Mnemo database table depend on which
database you've chosen to use.
First, look in ``scripts/sql/`` to see if a script already exists
for your database type. If so, you should be able to simply execute that
script as superuser in your database. (Note that executing the script as
the "horde" user will probably fail when granting privileges.)
If such a script does not exist, you'll need to build your own, using the
file mnemo.sql as a starting point. If you need assistance in creating
databases, you may wish to let us know on the Mnemo mailing list.
3. Configuring Mnemo
You must login to Horde as a Horde Administrator to finish the
configuration of Mnemo. Use the Horde ``Administration`` menu item to get
to the administration page, and then click on the ``Configuration`` icon to
get the configuration page. Select ``Notes`` from the selection list of
applications. Fill in or change any configuration values as needed. When
done click on ``Generate Notes Configuration`` to generate the ``conf.php``
file. If your web server doesn't have write permissions to the Mnemo
configuration directory or file, it will not be able to write the file. In
this case, go back to ``Configuration`` and choose one of the other methods
to create the configuration file ``mnemo/config/conf.php``.
4. Testing Mnemo
Use Mnemo to create, modify, and delete notes. Test at least the following:
- Creating a new memo
- Modifying a memo
- Deleting a memo
