Thanks, now it works.

I found the following problems configuring my test instance:

- php5-gd is needed for captcha, README.txt doesn't mention it

- mail is needed to register an account, solved this configuring
  local-delivery-only Postfix on my virtual machine

- email address syntax verification is too strict, my "address@hidden"
  was not accepted although it's completely ok for my use

- I see no way to make an user administrator or moderator

- when I tried to submit a device (of course after fixing a bug in
  h-client that I haven't noticed before), this error was returned:

    Your vendor has not been found.Your vendorid code is not present in
    the list. If it is a USB device, please choose the right interface
    (USB), otherwise the system will check inside the PCI ID vendors'
    list. If it is not a USB device, and you are not sure about the
    right interface, choose not-defined, and it should work fine (the
    system will check inside the PCI ID vendors' list if you choose an
    interface other than USB). If your vendor has not been found yet,
    please open an issue here in order to ask the insertion of your
    vendor.If your vendor has not been found you could also send your
    PCI ID or USB ID to the PCI ID repository
    (http://pciids.sourceforge.net/) or to the USB ID repository
    (http://www.linux-usb.org/usb-ids.html).

  README.txt does not mention how to add this list on h-source.  The
  error is also certainly too long to be shown on a single scrolled line
  in h-client.

My long-term aim is to get the data transferred between h-client and my
h-source instance and use it to test device submission and other server
interactions of h-client without running h-source.
