Installation and Upgrades / Re: sogo-activesync package
« on: April 09, 2014, 07:51:54 pm »
Pretty much the same I encountered. Cal and contacts sync (everything except SSL) did work tho, so it may be related to iOS. My Mac even refuses to connect to the normal SoGo Exchange service... Did you try webmail to confirm SoGo itself is working correctly? I set up Outlook to confirm everythings running as it should. If you plan on exposing AS to WAN, you could check Exchange connectivity via Microsoft website. Would also be helpful to see some logs.
Didn't have any time to investigate further regarding SSL access yet, will keep you updated.
EDIT: Here's a list for reviewing mobile device compat (Z-Push only!)... Might come in handy. http://www.zarafa.com/wiki/images/c/c7/Zarafa_Mobile_Compatibility.pdf

Yes, I thought so.
Anyway, the implementation seems to have a lot of bugs, but I won't go into details yet. The only thing that worked right out-of-the-box was the Z-Push package unencrypted. That's not much, but it's rather easy to narrow it down further from there. I had a working EAS connection from WAN, without tunneling, etc (which - ofc - is no use without SSL) in no time -- looks promising so far. Will report back once I figured out if the implementation is really that buggy, or something else caused all those problems.
Have you had any success with SoGo AS yet, Marcin?

Never used sogo, so I can't confirm if anythings wrong there. Check your firewall rules or maybe use a VPN tunnel to narrow it down. I am currently setting up AS myself, will report back if I encounter something similar.

Torsten,
I didn't realize someone already posted exactly what I was looking for. I read through the thread, bookmarked it, and wrote my response maybe 1 or 2 hours later. That's why I missed it. Dang!
You see, I'm doing this work as an IT admin in my spare time - pro bono, meaning I don't earn anything from it. It's a non profit organization and as such we rely on software developed in the same spirit as we do our work -- free for those who can't afford a professionally supported solution. I think it's rather inappropriate to justify false advertisements with a price point. "It's free, so we don't have to take responsibility!" ?
Take a look at this:
What would you think if you read this, install Zentyal, spend some hours setting up a test environment just to find out the feature you needed was not there? It is true that you, alongside others, provided a solution, and rest assured, I am able to implement such things in no time, and I am also thankful for your contributions. The point is, and I already pointed that out in my first reply, that the server is managed be non-IT-pros. They need a solid solution that works out-of-the-box with the current web interface. "Hacks" are just inacceptable for such a scenario, as they tend to break functionality quite easily if you fiddle with the wrong things (shit happens...).
So in the end, I disappointed a lot of people and wasted several hours because of simple misinformation. You can't honestly believe that reading a bugtracker and forums should be necessary to find out if advertised features are actually there!
Also, I think it should be possible to point such things out without getting downvoted several times.
Anyway. Glad you guys provided us with a beta package. Exactly what I needed!

Any chance on testing ActiveSync right now? Maybe some ready-to-install beta packages are (inofficially) available? It's... well, kind of annoying. And embarrassing. For me. I read that 3.4 included AS, told everyone that I'd deploy it on monday (yesterday) for our new project, just to find out that the only sign of integration is the nice banner you get while installing packages. I don't really want to mess around with the conf files and stuff, because the server is managed by non-professionals. That would be a last resort...
Anyway, I'd really appreciate if you would not advertise features that aren't there (yet). Im thankful that you guys provide such an outstanding all-in-one solution, free of charge, but this is really counter productive and - in my case - raises a lot of unpleasant questions.
