4.3-1 Horde unavailable, cannot upgrade, cannot uninstall, container unavailable?

After upgrading from 4.2 to 4.3-1 Horde no longer functions. I just installed in a week ago for testing so If i have to blow it away and re-install I am OK with that also…
After the reboot and checking app center, I see there is an upgrade available, but when I try to upgrade I see this error

"Error performing the action
The requested action cannot be carried out. Please consider the information listed below in order to resolve the problem and try again.
Horde Groupware Webmail Edition cannot be updated. The application is either not installed or no newer version is available."

appcenter.log and updater.log shows nothing.

Trying to un-install i see this error:

"Confirmation
An error occurred: No container found. Unable to run store_data!
Further information can be found in the following log file on each of the involved systems:

Thanks

Hello,

i have the same problem.
And please excuse my terrible english :slightly_smiling_face:

My start-system-configuration was Univention 4.2-3 and horde 5.2.7-3

After upgrade Univention to 4.3-1, the same error occurs as yours.

I can´t reinstall or delete horde. UCS says, the docker container ist not running.

docker images

on the console shows, that there is no horde-docker-container.
docker

univention-app info

-> no horde- app

But the UMC tells me, i have horde installed in 5.2.7-3 … very strange

So i try to register horde-app manually:

univention-app register horde=5.2.7-3

After that, i can install the newest horde-app and i can open the horde-web-gui.

But now i have a new problem, that a login is not possible.
Neither with the simple name/passwort nor with the mail-adress/passwort.

Thanks, I will try your steps and see what happens.

Horde is now working after manually registering and installing the newest version… I am able to log in as regular users now.

Thanks for the hint, it appears upgrading from 4.2-x to 4.3 does have an issue with horde.

I am glad that i could help you.
