Installation and Upgrades / sogo-activesync or z-push both semms to be unstable for ios
« on: September 22, 2014, 09:39:02 pm »
I have 4 ios devices. 2 IPhone 4 and 2 IPad2 .
I have configured both of them for active-sync with ssl over 443 with package sogo-activesync.
I also tried z-push without success, because all tries results in "can not authenticecate to server" "can´t connect as user ..." although i entered username@mydomain.com (instead of only username like sogo-activesync)
With sogo-activesync the first login is working, mails are syncing but after a few hours i run into trubble:

With sogo-activesync the first login is working, mails are syncing but after a few hours i run into trubble:
- in SOGo i see all incomming mails, but the ios ones are not showing all of the day !?!
- a sync try for one week will break every sync on any device exept SOGo, when the amount of mailstore for one user is big (for 1 week around 450mb). when i reduce sync time to 1 day sync is working for a while
- my testuser with around 130 mails has lost from one day to the other everything (like beginning with a blank user store)
- shared calender entries appearing like the want. From Sogo entered i see them, when i trie this on ios with the right calender they are nowhere to see.
- very anoying, when setting up active sync in ios, and i choose a wrong username, the first test from setup will give me an ok (green marks everywhere) but when attemping to open mail i see password failure. Of cause the wrong user! Seems to be ios related?

Installation and Upgrades / [3.5]User joined to domain but autodiscovery is not working due to missing cert?
« on: September 22, 2014, 09:22:41 pm »
I noticed in 2 installations a difference in certificates for autodiscovery.
My older [3.5] test setup has a cert autodiscovery. I startet it from beta stage.
My newest installation has many troubles with outlook 2010.
the setup guide like https://wiki.zentyal.org/wiki/En/3.2/OpenChange_%28Microsoft%28R%29_Exchange_native_replacement%29
is not working, because outlook will not configure himself like it should. The user is joined to domain. I needed to manually configure the exchange outlook profile. When i do this, outlook 2010 connects to exchange, but can´t download and sync anything (although i accept the warnings and the user sing´s in every outlook start). Testing autodiscovery from outlook fails.
I think this is the reason for a nonfunctional outlook.
Why is the cert missing?
how can i create it by myselve? like every other cert? Something i need to know?

Installation and Upgrades / [3.5] big desater, all mails are lost but i don´t know why
« on: September 22, 2014, 09:09:04 pm »
hi,
in my installation i have the problem, that from one user all mails are lost. the hole user account is empty after loggin in on SOGo. I don´t know what has happend to cause this error.
i have backup of them (export from sogo) and a backup from proxmoxve.
But i would like to examine what has happend, because this should never be again. Its a big desaster because we still have not the possibility only to restore and backup the mail storage.
I tried to look through the logs, but i see too many errors, i think something has happend to mysql database but i have no knowledge of it.
I have other problems too, maybe they all belong together:
I have never seen something more unstable. I need some advice for finding the problem. What shall i controll and look for?

- All IOS Devices are working unstable (sogo-activesync) , Cal entries are sometimes there sometimes not, mails can be seen sometimes, sometimes not or not all, a mail acount with 450mb will breaks connetion on ios activesync (needs to be reduced to one day, then i see mails) https://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,23345.msg89851.html#msg89851

Installation and Upgrades / [3.5] Many problems with Activesync, mail are comming but not all
« on: September 18, 2014, 02:30:25 pm »
In my configuration 3.5 i notice still many problems in active-sync (sogo-activesync).
I have installed on 2 IPAD2 and 2 IPhone 4 2 zentyal accounts over activesync togther and i get many mails with photos in it. they are often bigger than 20mb! With outlook 2010 and imap i have no problems with receving and sending. for the last 4 weeks i have a user mail account of 450MB. My old .pst is about 35GB and this should be imported later on (should be possible with 4.0)
With zentyal it seems that bigger accounts are unable to sync with mobile devices. Because in SOGo i see all mails, but on Apple i only get some of them! Thats not funny!
In outlook 2010 its impossible to sync anything of this user. Only nearly empty user accounts are syncing fine for a handful mails.

Installation and Upgrades / My own way for missing modules , use virtual machines !
« on: September 17, 2014, 10:43:38 pm »
Hi,
here i want to show interested users, how we can get a maybe better solution for missing functions of zentyal.
To me, i am an IT supporter and i build BTO system by my own for years for privat, buisiness and sometimes server solutions.
In my case i am not happy of removing backup, Gateway function is poor and generally i love VM´s
We need a system which is fully supported for Virtual Machines and nice to have VT-D for pci passtrough, 2 nic adapters, 8Gb Ram, 2 internal SSD´s, external SATA Hdd in HotSwap bay.
My components:
Setup:
Why ProxmoxVE:

Installation and Upgrades / Domain name of server, whow should it be named?
« on: September 17, 2014, 10:02:53 pm »
I ´am irritated from reading this tutorial for 4.0 which should be identically for 3.x
https://wiki.zentyal.org/wiki/How_to_configure_Zentyal%27s_Microsoft_Outlook%C2%AE-compatible_mail_server
I have learned that when i set up an exchange server i need to have an internal Host domain name and an external mail domain name.
Example:
Host domain name: mydomain.local
Virtual mail domain: mydomain.com
In this tutorial both are identical. Is this today normal? I am comming from sbs2003 ...
Do i get problems when choosing different names?

Installation and Upgrades / SOGo Mail sharing with other user not possible?
« on: September 16, 2014, 11:22:48 am »
Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right way, but i need to give another user access to my mail inbox. I tried to ways in SOGo, delegation and user rights for the mail folder.
Both ways are not seen inside SOGo from the other user. No idea how to access it, because the buttons under the folders for adding other accounts / resources like in calender / contact are missing.
Has anyone tried to use delegation and/or user rights for mail folders?

Installation and Upgrades / nmbd service is not started on 3.5 - Samba Server not shown on windows 7 clients
« on: September 15, 2014, 03:34:50 pm »
I noticed with my fresh 3.5 installation, that the server himselve is not shown in the Windows 7 computers list. I can manually access over browser bar all shares, but the Server himselve should also be seen.
I notice that the nmbd service is not startet. This seems to be responsible for that problem.

Installation and Upgrades / [solved] how can i allow other users to access my home folder?
« on: September 15, 2014, 12:26:06 am »
What am i doing wrong? I enabled serverstorage userprofile and moved my windows dokument files to my own folder on the server. i also activated offline sync in windows.
For me i can access my files, but other users can´t see my home folder in samba shares.
I thought i can configure my sharing rights in Zentyal / Shares, but the home folders of the users doesn´t appear here. Why is this so?
I need to access the other home folders!
Thanks

Installation and Upgrades / [3.5] No Mails incomming, sending is working
« on: July 17, 2014, 03:53:04 pm »
I am wondering how to collect mails with 3.5, therefore the user corner has been removed (dropped) and this also affect external mail collection.
So where do i configure now my pop3 or imap account for collecting all my existing and new incomming mails from external account (which is the same like my user p.e. tester@testing.de)?
Momentally i can only send mails.
The documentation is wrong, here exists all this functionallity ! https://wiki.zentyal.org/wiki/3.5_Users_and_Computers#Managing_Users.2C_Groups_and_Computers
Regards

« on: June 11, 2014, 09:32:29 pm »
Hi,
since my first try of installing with the new dailys build i can´t get a working installation. Every time the first setup assistant crashes when configuring webserver.
I reduced the selected packages to only openchange ans openchange-webmailer and all it dependencies, but i got the same error of webserver.
I use i single nic setup als local lan.
It seems that the bugtracker doesen´t send a message
Does someone else have the same problem?
I don´t find it in zentyal.log

Installation and Upgrades / zentyal 3.5 beta and activesync status
« on: May 11, 2014, 12:53:40 pm »
Hi there,
one improvement of 3.5 should be a fully working activesync. Thats the development plan and i hope it really
Actually after several hours this night (11.05):
Can somebody agree this?
And i would advise to update the package. it´s outdated from 27.03. There are several bugfixes missing:
https://github.com/inverse-inc/sogo/commits/master/ActiveSync
https://tracker.zentyal.org/issues/796

Actually after several hours this night (11.05):
- package z-push is not avaiable (not yet or will it not be published any more?)
- openchange is working with webmailer
- sogo-activesync is installable without any error, but on zentyal settings the checkbox for activating it is missing!

Installation and Upgrades / [solved] 3.5 from daily iso, lvm error in KVM by setup
« on: May 08, 2014, 02:23:37 pm »
Hi,
i am unable to install 3.5 from dailys iso in an 12.04 KVM VM. I always have an partition error, because the setup will install an lvm which fails. No reason why and i can´t choose a normal partition btw manually partition the VM.
Is someone else having these problem with VM´s ?
Edit: although there is a working solution, the automated setup still fails by lvm creation
Edit2: with the actual daily builds it works.

Installation and Upgrades / Some thoughts about using zentyal 3.4 with only one network card and generally
« on: April 13, 2014, 05:57:27 pm »
I have been trying zentyal 3.4 since weeks, and also in beta stage. I am an absolutly new user of zentyal and tried 3.3 only some weeks.
I think the step forward to openchange and a fully free exchange and dc btw. sbs replacement is a good way but still far away of being stable enough for productive usage. But anyway i like it much
Now we can discuss about the sense of opensource and how good or bugfree it should be when a new major version is being released, but in most other projects i have never seen a release with so many bugs or missing major functions. In my mind the release date was really much to early. And the main missing thing is still in work, activesync is now released, but still not fully working.
For a major function today of a SBE replacement not a good point
Never mind, the bugtracker is heavily used now after release time (i am unhappy about only a hand full of tester in beta stage), so i have the hope that the main problems will be solved in the next weeks.
But one thing is never discussed here, the point of how many network adaptors are needed.
For sure you can install it with one nic, but in this case you will have several not working parts, like :
- no ipsec server possible
- outlook everywhere is not possible, although you enable the nic as external interface. But when you do that, you need to modify the firewall, because otherwise you have no access to zentyal anymore, except from the server himself.
- most mail filter needs to have an external nic?
In my case i can´t use it yet as the main DNS and DHCP Server, because it´s still in testing and learning, if i switch zentyal between my cablemodem and router everytime i have zentyal broken or down i have no internet for the rest of my clients.
So if my understanding is right, the best advise is to use two nics together, isn´t it?
And i wish, that the zentyal team will give us for the next releases more informations about missing features or known problems or limitations.
