Hello Prof Murray Saul, I added detailed information on how to install RoundCube through gui, these steps are based on my own experiences and students I helped. I'm just a regular OPS335 student so please feel free to edit these changes.
::* Go onto c7host, open Firefox and on the address bar type "vm1.<yourSenecaID>.ops/webmail/installer", make sure your dns on c7host can resolve the web address. Alternatively, instead of "vm1.<yourSenecaID>.ops" you can input the ip address of your vm1, "192.168.X.2/webmail/installer", change X to your own IP octet.
::* Inside the web browser installer, ensure all required options are "ok", if "DOM: not ok" it means you need to install additional php packages (yum install policycoreutils-python php-xml php-mbstring). Once everything is ready (it will not let you continue otherwise) click next go to the next page.
::* On the next page, insert "vm3.<yourSenecaID>.ops" under the '''imap settings ''' '''default_host''' field and "143" in '''default_port''' field. Insert "vm2.<yourSenecaID>.ops" under '''smtp settings ''' '''smtp_server''' field, and "25" in '''smtp_port''' field. ::* Under '''Database setup: ''' '''db_dsnw''', enter "localhost" as your database server, "name of your database you created" for database name, or just use a default created one, such as "mysql". Put "root" as Database user, and your own password for database password (the password you use to login to mysql as root). Everything else can be left as default.
::* Click next to create the configuration file, then download it to your c7host. By default it will be saved under "~SenecaID/Downloads". Transfer the files to vm1 using scp and place it inside /var/www/html/webmail/config folder.
::* Enter "restorecon -v /var/www/html/webmail/config/config.inc.php" Restart httpd and refresh the web installer page.
