Did you check the permissions in the /var/lib/phpgroupware so that the "www-server" user can write to? Directories are created on the fly the first time you "cd" into

for example you could run as root the following three commands:

chown -R yourwwwserveruser /var/lib/phpgroupware
chgrp -R yourwwwserveruser /var/lib/phpgroupware
chmod -R 755 /var/lib/phpgroupware

the "www-server user" is different depending on the distro; for example in ubuntu and debian is www-data
