« on: May 18, 2010, 12:03:30 am »
Just for anyone finding this topic, I am exploring the possibilities with eGW+TB+Blackberry, see this link:

Installation and Upgrades / Re: eGroupware + Funambol + Blackberry = almost there!

Next update:
Tried TB3 with Lightning and Funambol Sync Nighty (https://mozilla-plugin.forge.funambol.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=160&expandFolder=160&folderID=159)
It synced a few entries, then hung up itself, crashed a few times, so it's not ready yet.
Sync also my Blackberry again, now I have every entry at least 3 times in my address book on the phone.
Pretty annoying.
eGW people claim to use the latest version 1.6.003 (currently 1.6.002 running, see also http://forum.ebox-platform.com/index.php?topic=3703.0), but don't know how to / dare to upgrade...
I'll keep you posted....

Installation and Upgrades / eGroupware upgrade, installation of extra software possible?
« on: May 09, 2010, 07:35:53 pm »
Hi,
I am kind of working on the eGW / Thunderbird / Blackberry sync (see http://forum.ebox-platform.com/index.php?topic=3618.msg15620#msg15620) and I got a message in the eGW forum that I need at least eGW version 1.6.003 (EBox runs 1.6.002).
Can I upgrade somehow without breaking the EBox settings? If yes, how can I do this?
I'd also like to install additional software, e.g. drivers for my usb webcam, a media streaming server, etc. - can I do this without breaking something?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Installation and Upgrades / Re: Does anyone have an actual working Ebox implementation?
« on: May 09, 2010, 07:32:26 pm »
I am in the mids of migrating my old SuSe 7.3 server (it's time, I guess...
) to EBox because I need a few things improved.
I receive email for 3 domains of mine with EBox, the migration is easy, because the new EBox server is listed as the primary email server, the old SuSe box is listed as secondary server, so if something goes wrong, I still receive the mails on the old box.
The only thing I added in the email config is that I turned blacklisting on, because I stated to receive more spam that with the old server. Now it works even better, than the old one!
I am also using samba for file sharing within my network, I love the OpenVPN feature (this was very important to me!) and I am trying to work out the setting to sync contacts+email+calendar with eGroupware and Thunderbird + Blackberry. This is buggy, but it depends on the funambol and eGW components.
The only error I discovered was, that you cannot use special characters in you password, but this is supposed to be already fixed.
I am very thankful for the EBox developers, I am planning to add some documentation, so that new users have more support when they run into the same things like I did.

Okay, an update on this:
setting the correct folder name as described in http://www.egroupware.org/index.php?page_name=sync&wikipage=SyncMLFunambol , which is "./sifcontacts" syncing my contacts from TB and Blackberry work.....
BUT: there is something wrong with the sync from TB to eGW, as the email addresses are not transmitted. When I change the email details in eGW and sync, then the addresses appear in TB as well.
After the sync the birthday entries disappear from my Blackberry as well, so this is still quite buggy.
After the sync I also see empty entries in my addressbook....
*grml*
Calendar-sync does not work from Blackberry and I can't find a Lightning version fitting for TB2, so can't test it now (TB is not supported by funambol)
If anyone has more luck than me, please let me know!

Hi everybody,
I am working on the syncronisation of my Blackberry and T-Bird over funambol with Ebox'es eGroupware. It nearly works for me, but I still have a few issues:
On T-bird I get the error "Error: Code 2052" when syncing with the Funambol Add-on, it fails after syning 120 contacts (I have only 120 contacts in my address-book). After googling I found a page where the following was recommended as a solution:
so I opened a console, did
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-fcgid,
did all the changes and wanted to restart the apache service when it said, that httpd was not running at all (although I was connected to the admin panel and to eGroupware over my browser?)?
So my first question is, are all the paths correct above, or is apache started from a different location? Also, does anybody have any experience with funambol sync tasks like these?
I have the same problem, when I start syncing from my Blackberry, it aborts after about 60 contacts. Syncing the "Tasks" and "Notes" are working!
Thanks a lot in advance!

Code: [Select]
package needed libapache2-mod-fcgid
The following time-outs and abort happen with large synchronisations:
cgi aborts (error 500 after 20 Sec)
apache aborts the Post-Request (after 5 Minutes)
PHP is out of memory (32MB is the Default-value)
To solve this, the following changes have to be included:
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf :
TimeOut 1200
/etc/apache2/mods-en abled/fcgid.conf :
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi .fcg .fpl
IPCConnectTimeout 1200
IPCCommTimeout 1200
</IfModule>
/etc/apache2/conf.d/egroupware :
php_value memory_limit 96Mso I opened a console, did

Installation and Upgrades / Re: Ebox 1.4 Clean install - cannot log into Webinterface
« on: April 01, 2010, 09:54:13 am »Now, when I only define my username "bbking" in my email client, I get the dialog "enter password for bbking@xxx.yyyy.com" -> when I change the username to "bbking@yyyy.com" the dialog asks "enter password for bbking@yyyy.com@xxx.yyyy.com"
Doesn't it works when you enter the correct password for bbking@yyyy.com@xxx.yyyy.com ?
unfortunately not, although I did not use any special characters in my pwd...
The questions is, is it the same problem like at the start of this thread or did I missconfigured something?

well, my setup is like this:
the FQDN of my box is lets say xxx.yyyy.com
I set up the domain yyyy.com as a virtual domain.
Now, when I only define my username "bbking" in my email client, I get the dialog "enter password for bbking@xxx.yyyy.com" -> when I change the username to "bbking@yyyy.com" the dialog asks "enter password for bbking@yyyy.com@xxx.yyyy.com"
the same happens for smtp...
Thanks

Thanks, this worked!
Is there a general problem with passwords in 1.4? I set up a mail account and I tried to send a mail from extern via smtp (my IP is listed as a relay host) and I keep getting asked for a password of my user. When I enter the same password I set on eBOX, it won't be accepted...
Thanks
Edit: the same happens when I try to connect via IMAP to the server...

I have the same problem here. I used special characters in my password and cannot login on the web-interface nor per ssh!
How can I solve this?
I even tried to boot up with sysrescuecd to delete the passwords from /etc/shadow but there are no passwords in there!
Can somebody give me a hint regarding this?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Installation and Upgrades / Installing from SVN
« on: February 05, 2010, 11:05:01 am »
Hello folks,
this is me again. Sorry to start a new thread, but I guess it's independent from my previous one.
I'm trying to install on ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64
I got the SVN sources as stated in http://trac.ebox-platform.com/wiki/Document/Development/SVN
installed all the tools that the file trunk/common/libebox/INSTALL said (the CPAN Module Readonly::XS failed)
then run autogen.sh, ./configure --localestatedir=/var/ and make install -> this went fine.
Then I chanched to trunk/client/ebox and there run the same commands:
autogen.sh, ./configure --localestatedir=/var/
but it fails with
checking for gconftool-2... none
configure: error: gconftool-2 not found
what can I do here? apt-get install gconftool-2 doesn't work....
[Edit]: Are there any docs, that could point me in the right direction with the installation from sources?
Thanks in advance!

Installation and Upgrades / Re: Installation fails
« on: February 04, 2010, 10:05:36 am »The Hardy alternate install CD "crashes" in a way identical to the rest, I'm sorry to say, at the "Loading additional components" portion of the install. So very early on in the process.
I downloaded Ubuntu-9.10-server-amd64 edition, the installation succeeded just fine. I did not choose "loading additional components", just added the openSSH server and I want to install Ebox with apt-get in the evening. So far, the system works, I rebooted and logged in once....
Hope this helps

Hello,
first of all, this is my first post here, so please bear with me - I just discovered EBOX a few days go and liked the idea behind it very much.
Today I was going to install 1.3.16 but it failed from the beginning: I burned a CD with the iso image, put it in a brand new server made from Intel parts and an Adaptec RAID controller - it just starts fine from the CD, I can change the language and the keyboard layout and then it tells me, it can't configure my CD-Rom......HUH?!?!......it just booted from the CD and loaded all the data from there?!
Same result, when I create an USB stick with the image and boot from there. RescuImage has no problems reading the CD when I start from the USB stick....
The CD-Rom is available under /dev/sr0 and I can mount it in the console and read the data from there....
Same goes for the USB stick, it's only mounted from /dev/sdb1
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers
BBking
