I am not sure if this fits to my conditions.
It is possible that a root password was set, but it is not needed.
Now i have added an additional account for the administration.

After so much days i can't remember why it didn't work afterwards, sorry.
But roundcube could not be used instantly.

Roundcube should be unpacked at this time, only the configuration is missing - correct?
With the original installation procedure i didn't run into a similar problem.

This is annoying because it is not clear what to do at this point.

Best regards
