The problem due to the ” Horde Groupware Webmail Edition detected ” means when you have try to update the Horde by using following commands
root@server[~]# /usr/local/cpanel/bin/update-horde --force
Then it shows the following error

!!!     Horde Groupware Webmail Edition detected        !!!
Install or update of standard Horde Webmail is disabled.
Horde Groupware Webmail was installed with cPanel 11.25.1.
Downgrades of Horde are not permitted due to MySQL differences.

Then you need to move the file
root@server[~]# mv /var/cpanel/horde/groupware_version /var/cpanel/horde/groupware_version-bak
After that run following commands
root@server[~]# /usr/local/cpanel/bin/update-horde --force
Done
Now horde is updated and reset and you can able to access it without any problem.
