There are newer articles on roundcube at CentOS 8.x Roundcube

To setup a basic roundcube server use following steps:

  1. Download roundcube source from roundcube website ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/roundcubemail/files/roundcubemail/1.0.1/roundcubemail-1.0.1.tar.gz )
  2. Extract the code and move it to /var/www/html using:
    tar xzf roundcubemail-1.0.1.tar.gz
    mv roundcubemail-1.0.1 /var/www/html/roundcube
  3. Give apache write permission on logs and temp folders using:
    cd /var/www/html/roundcube/
    chown -R apache:apache logs/ temp/
    chmod -R 755 logs/ temp/
  4. Install necessary packages using 'yum -y install mysql-server php-mysql php php-mbstring php-mcrypt php-intl php-dom'
  5. Setup https web server (httpd, mod_ssl, etc.)
  6. Start and enable mysqld and httpd services using:
    service httpd start
    chkconfig httpd on
    service mysqld start
    chkconfig mysqld on
  7. Start 'mysql' and use:
    CREATE DATABASE roundcubemail;
    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON roundcubemail.* TO roundcube@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
    \q
  8. Then start mysql using 'mysql -u roundcube roundcubemail < /var/www/html/roundcube/SQL/mysql.initial.sql' to initialize roundcubemail database.
  9. Create '/var/www/html/roundcube/config/config.inc.php' file with following contents:
    <?php
    $config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://roundcube:@localhost/roundcubemail';
    $config['default_host'] = 'ssl://<IMAP-server>';
    $config['default_port'] = 993;
    $config['smtp_server'] = 'localhost';
    $config['support_url'] = '';
    $config['ip_check'] = true;
    $config['des_key'] = '<24-random-chars>';
    $config['plugins'] = array();
    $rcmail_config['mail_domain'] = '%t';
    where replace <24-random-chars> with 24 random alphanumeric characters. Also replace <IMAP-server> with IMAP server FQDN.
  10. The steps assume local postfix server is configured to allow sending emails from this machine.
  11. In some cases editing of '/etc/php.ini' to set 'date.timezone = "Asia/Calcutta"' under module '[Date]' might be necessary.
