I was using an rc version of RoundCube and recently upgraded to the latest stable version. I'm using cPanel 11.

If a user goes to domain.com/webmail cpanel will bring up an authentication dialog box for user/pass. After logging in, they get to the cPanel webmail screen where they can choose which program to use. If you click on RoundCube, it asks for the login details again. This never used to be the case when I was using the rc version, as RoundCube remembered the details and auto logged the user in.

I asked on the RoundCube support forum, but a developer didn't know.

I've searched everywhere and even asked my hosting tech support but obviously they don't offer support for 3rd party scripts.

Does anybody know?

It is because Roundcube doesn't know that cPanel already verified the user with http auth and that the credentials are available to authenticate with.

For rc1 there was a patch floating around: http://www.hostgeekz.com/files/hostgeekz/HGpatch-roundcube-NON-X-0.1-rc1

You may be able to figure out what and where roundcube is being patched and mimic this on stable.

Nice. I knew of the hostgeekz tutorial, I just never followed it completely as I just paid my tech to install it.

I'll see what I can do with this, though it seems to complex for me to take on based on it being a new version as well.

Thanks for the heads up.

Possibly an updated version floating around, not sure.

You could always try applying that patch and see if it applies cleanly.
