Error connecting to database: SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'roundcube'@'localhost'

Hi,
setup kolab will ask you for a mysql root password on setup.
if you missed it, run  setup-kolab  -D 9 -l debug and show us the output.
If you hit enter, try this before rerunning dpkg --coonfigure -a:

login as root and create a file called  .my.cnf
Add this:
[client]
port        = 3306
socket        = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
password    = xxxxxxxxxx

Of course, use or own mysql root password.
then do a chmod 700 .my.cnf

Rerun the setup and continue.

Rgds.

Franz
