Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on January 07, 2007, 09:11:40 AM: I take advantage of the release of a new version of eGroupWare (v1.2.106-2) to provide a howto to script its installation.

First of all, download necessary files here (http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/egroupware/eGroupWare-1.2.106-2.zip) and here (http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/egroupware/eGroupWare-contrib-1.2.106-2.zip)

Create a folder in /root nammed 'egroupware'

Copy the 2 downloaded files into /root/egroupware

Create a file /root/egroupware/98egroupware with :
Code: [Select]
# eGroupWare Alias /egroupware /opt/egroupware/html <Directory /opt/egroupware/html> SSLRequireSSL on AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml Options Indexes +Includes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride all order deny,allow deny from all allow from all php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on php_flag track_vars on php_flag register_globals off php_admin_value phpa on php_admin_value eaccelerator.enable 1 php_admin_value display_errors 0 php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 7 </Directory>This template allows access from anywhere (global). https mode is enabled.

Create a file /root/egroupware/60redir-egroupware with :
Code: [Select]
{ if ($port ne "443") { $OUT .= <<'HERE'; ## Redirect Web Address to Secure Address RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/egroupware https://%{HTTP_HOST}/egroupware ## End Of Redirect HERE } }This template redirect automatically http to https for access to eGroupWare

Create a file /root/egroupware.sh with :
Code: [Select]
#!/bin/sh echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------" echo "Installation of eGroupWare (public access, automatic https mode)..." echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------" DOMAINE=$(db configuration get DomainName) echo "Generating password..." passok=0 while [ "$passok" != "1" ] ; do openssl genrsa 32 > /root/pass.txt pass=$(grep -v "PRIVATE KEY" < /root/pass.txt) echo test > /root/pass.txt sed -e "s/test/$pass/" /root/pass.txt >/root/pass.new passok=$(grep -c $pass < /root/pass.new) done egwpass=$pass echo "Password is : $egwpass" rm -f /root/pass.txt rm -f /root/pass.new echo "Creating Data bases..." mysqladmin -u root create egroupware echo "Creating mysql user..." mysql -e " grant select, insert, update, delete, create, drop, index, alter on egroupware.* \ to 'egroupware'@'localhost' \ identified by '$egwpass' " mysqladmin flush-privileges echo "Decompressing files..." mkdir -p /opt/egroupware/backup mkdir -p /opt/egroupware/files mkdir -p /opt/egroupware/tmp unzip -q /root/egroupware/eGroupWare-1.2.106-2.zip -d /opt/egroupware unzip -qo /root/egroupware/eGroupWare-contrib-1.2.106-2.zip -d /opt/egroupware mv -f /opt/egroupware/egroupware /opt/egroupware/html mv -f /opt/egroupware/html/sitemgr/sitemgr-link /opt/egroupware/html/ echo "Cleaning installed modules..." rm -rf /opt/egroupware/html/phpsysinfo rm -rf /opt/egroupware/html/phpldapadmin echo "Setting file access rules :" cd /opt echo " - Changing owner recursivly..." chown -R root:www /opt/egroupware echo " - Recursive CHMOD 550 on folders..." find egroupware -type d -exec chmod 550 {} \; echo " - Recursive CHMOD 440 on files..." find egroupware -type f -exec chmod 440 {} \; echo " - Customization of CHMOD for a few folders..." chmod -R 770 /opt/egroupware/files chmod -R 770 /opt/egroupware/backup chmod -R 770 /opt/egroupware/tmp chmod -R 770 /opt/egroupware/html/fudforum chmod 770 /opt/egroupware/html/phpgwapi/images touch /opt/egroupware/html/header.inc.php chown www /opt/egroupware/html/header.inc.php chmod 600 /opt/egroupware/html/header.inc.php echo "Adding templates..." mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/VirtualHosts cp /root/egroupware/60redir-egroupware /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/VirtualHosts/ cp /root/egroupware/98egroupware /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/ expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf service httpd-e-smith restart echo echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------------" echo "Installation completed, you must finish the installation of eGroupWare website." echo "Please go to https://$DOMAINE/egroupware" echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------------" echo echo echo "Reminder :" echo " - Website open globally" echo " - https mode enabled with automatic redirection" echo echo " - eGroupware is installed in the folder : /opt/egroupware/html" echo " - tmp folder path is : /opt/egroupware/tmp" echo " - backup folder path is : /opt/egroupware/backup" echo " - files folder path is : /opt/egroupware/files" echo echo " - MySQL database name is : egroupware" echo " - MySQL username is : egroupware" echo " - MySQL user password is : $egwpass" echo "-------------------------------------------------------------------------------"
Now the only thing you have to do is
Code: [Select]
# sh egroupware.shand eGroupWare installs automatically.
A random password is generated for MySQL user, please note the informations given by the script and finish eGroupWare installation.

edit : added setup howto

you should be able to go to https://yourdomain.com/egroupware

Post by: cool34000 on January 10, 2007, 09:06:07 PM: I forgot to say to CHMOD header.inc.php to 400 (read only for root) AFTER the install is done for security reasons...
Code: [Select]
chmod 400 /opt/egroupware/html/header.inc.phpThis should be better !

I'm also digging the fact that mysql user should have LOCK permission for its database... Will tell here if needed.

Post by: Amir Inbar on January 14, 2007, 08:57:54 PM: @cool34000 :

Worked like charm ..

Thank you.

I have another problem though, related to Hebrew characters - i use UTF-8 as the basic encoding but some of the mail messages show scrambled and some messages are shown with whiped out text - mainly messags that were written in Hebrew.

Do you know how to solve that ?

Another question : is there a known solution for syncing eGroupWare with outlook without the need to accept security warnings ?

Title: Server-manager and other ibays missing after egroupware inst
Post by: straubd on January 14, 2007, 09:32:42 PM: Help - I followed the directions as outlined, ran the egroupware.sh installation script and now none of my previous ibays, http://server/server-manager and https://server/egroupware can be accessed. I've rebooted the server and have restarted the httpd services with no success.

The primary ibay is the only one that is accessible.

What am I doing wrong here?

Title: Funambol sync
Post by: daniel on January 15, 2007, 01:28:59 PM: I've been working with egroupware since version 102 and have had the outlook sync working using the syncml or funambol clients. I followed the script on a new test server but am unable to get the sync working. I verified xmlrpc was turned on in egroupware admin setup. My setup includes php5 and mysql5 all of which I had working on egroupware 105 for testing.

Has anyone else had an issue with it not working?

PS thanks for the script

The 1st error you see is because xmlrpc service is not enabled in eGroupWare. In the admin panel, configure your site to enable xmlrpc service and FileCenter will work !

For the 2nd error you see, you should use in eGroupWare same users and passwords as SME accounts. It works perfectly !

I know eGroupWare is able to work with LDAP authentification, still don't know how to make this works but hope I'll be able soon to give a simple howto here (unless someone already knows how to make this working)

Post by: cool34000 on January 16, 2007, 09:59:31 PM: There is nothing to worry about, but obviously something is going wrong !
If you can not retrieve mails via IMAP, have you tried via POP ? (both protocols are supported)
If this work with POP, maybe you forgot to fill IMAP server name in the setup process ? Go to https://yourserver/egroupware/setup to check it. I don't ask you if IMAP is enabled on your server, I bet it is !!!

Title: downloadable script?
Post by: rkscscc on January 16, 2007, 11:01:25 PM: hiya cool34000...

is it possible for you to create the complete script for easy downloading instead of people struggling with typing errors?

also, a general question about groupware, their homepage says you have access from various clients (outlook included), but would outlook have the full feature range of the webclient?

thanks for all your hard work!

Post by: cool34000 on January 16, 2007, 11:54:36 PM: @stuntshell : I don't have any errors in my logs... Are you sure EGW users and passwords are the same that SME's ? I ask that because man can add mailboxes to a user but by default, EGW will open EGWuserlogin@localhost to retrieve mails... That's why EGWuserlogin must equal SMEuserlogin (and of course password). If not, I don't have anymore ideas :oops: Sorry... See EGW forums, maybe this will help you ?

@rkscscc : I do not have the necessary bandwidth to do that at home at the moment : I'm lost in the asshole of the world where xDSL means 512/128kbps :cry: I'm also an onlinegamer and ping is life !!! :twisted:
Anyway, this script and the templates are for everyone so I have no problem on putting these 3 little files on any FTP a generous soul would provide...
Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on January 17, 2007, 03:05:52 AM: About what can do (or what cannot do) eGroupWare and Outlook, I invite you to test eGWOSync (http://www.egroupware.org/wiki?wikipage=synchronisation%20outlook#egwosync).
I've just discovered it while trying to answer your post...
Using this tool is really not hard but there is one thing you must know before starting...
To use eGWOSync with HTTPS, YOU MUST HAVE A VALID CERTIFICATE
If not there are howtos on contribs.org to do this...
I highly recommend to use HTTPS with eGroupWare !!!

Here is another solution, which does not use HTTPS and THAT IS NOT SECURED.
So I recommend to limit access to eGroupWare from LAN only...

I highly insist in the fact that http and xmlrpc shouldn't be used together, password are written in plain text !!! You are warned !

Here's the howto :
delete the file created by the script : 60redir-egroupware
Code: [Select]
rm /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/VirtualHosts/60redir-egroupwareReplace the content of the file /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/98egroupware by this :
Code: [Select]
# eGroupWare Alias /egroupware /opt/egroupware/html <Directory /opt/egroupware/html> AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml Options Indexes +Includes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride all order deny,allow deny from all allow from { "$localAccess"; } php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on php_flag track_vars on php_flag register_globals off php_admin_value phpa on php_admin_value eaccelerator.enable 1 php_admin_value display_errors 0 php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 7 </Directory>Be careful on the blank line on top&end :wink:
Then expand the template and restart apache :
Code: [Select]
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf service httpd-e-smith restart

At this stage, things should be the same if you use https or http :
If it's not already done, activate xmlrpc services in Admin panel / site configuration. Then click on xmlrpc item and click on introspection.
This should give you something like this :
Quote from: "xmlrpc introspection"
methods available at http://yourservername:80/egroupware/xmlrpc.php
system.listMethods
Documentation
This method lists all the methods that the XML-RPC server knows how to dispatch

Signature
array system.listMethods(string)
array system.listMethods()

system.methodHelp
Documentation
Returns help text if defined for the method passed, otherwise returns an empty string

Signature
string system.methodHelp(string)

system.methodSignature
Documentation
Returns an array of known signatures (an array of arrays) for the method name passed. If no signatures are known, returns a none-array (test for type != array to detect missing signature)

Signature
array system.methodSignature(string)

system.login
Documentation
eGroupWare client or server login via XML-RPC

Signature
struct system.login(struct)

system.logout
Documentation
eGroupWare client or server logout via XML-RPC

Signature
struct system.logout(struct)

system.phpgw_api_version
Documentation
Returns the eGroupWare API version

Signature
string system.phpgw_api_version()

system.time
Documentation
returns system-time and -timezone and if loged in user-time and timezone

Signature
struct system.time()

If you passed the test, install eGWOSync (you need .net framework 1.1). Launch the program and provide the needed information during the 'first time run' :
Put just your server name in field Http://
Port should be 80 if using http or select Use SSL/Secure to use https (if you must have a valid certificate)
URI should be left by default (/egroupware/xmlrpc.php)
On next page, insert username and password and enter yourdomain.com
Then test your login. If you get 2 success, you can now sync calendar, addressbook, notes, todo's :P

Enjoy !

Are you sure EGW users and passwords are the same that SME's ? I ask that because man can add mailboxes to a user but by default, EGW will open EGWuserlogin@localhost to retrieve mails... That's why EGWuserlogin must equal SMEuserlogin (and of course password).

EGW and SME does not need to have the same passwords, the only piece that needs access to e-smith is the mail part, and you can have different passwords set, there's an option so you can customize the imap settings. Checkmark and enter the propper information.

About the error log I was receiving, it was due to the fact I had used a localhost name instead of the fully qualified domain in setup. After fixing that, all good to go.

Thanks,

Have you passed successfully the tests at the beginning of install stage ? (check install)
This warning about pear is very strange...

Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on February 21, 2007, 10:01:03 PM: I found this (but not tested it for now) :
Quote from: "eGroupWare documentation"
Before you start to update your installation, make a backup from your eGroupWare
files and he database.
1) Download the packages from our sourceforge3 page.
2) Install the packages on your server:
For RPM packages do the following:
[root@server tmp]# rpm –Uvh eGroupWare*
For tar.gz packages go to your web server’s root directory (above your eGroupWare installation):
[root@server tmp]# cd /var/www/html
[root@server html]# tar xzvf eGroupWare-x.xx.xxx-x.tar.gz

Just remember that the installation is in /opt/egroupware/html ! and do a backup before (db and files) !!!
Please give feed back when done

If you do a fresh install, this should work the same way (don't forget to change the name of the archive in the script).

I'll test it when I will have some time...

Post by: soprom on February 23, 2007, 01:44:11 AM: I would check permissions and re-run setup.php as header.inc.php contains path to the application. You could also check header.inc.php to make sure paths are well defined.

Skip verification if it hangs.

eGroupWare-1.3-015:

I'm testing this version in /opt/egrouphead.
I installed it following the same howto.
Note that this is a beta version and there are bugs. The version is not suitable for production... Cute but not ready yet.

Post by: wifinetguy on March 11, 2007, 03:52:17 AM: Hi, everyone. I've just tried this on a fresh install of SME Server 7.1. Everything gets loaded into /opt/egroupware and I've created the files as outlined in the beginning of this thread. (60-redir and 98egroupware). I've restarted the webserver.

However, when I enter the URL to go to eGW (https://domain/egroupware) I get an index of the /egroupware ibay (empty since everything is installed in /opt/egroupware). There's no redirection going on.

I followed the beginning steps very carefully. Even went back to recheck my work. I can't figure out what I did wrong. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

After the first screen of egroupware's initialisation (NEXT), I have an empty screen ...
(Yes, I did a correct copy and past of the template - with blank line).

I notice this :
- with this fresh SME7.1.2, I cannot acces to the internet with firefox without manually configuration of the SME proxy,

You have probably specified (ie limited access to) the setup page to only your local network IP or domain or a wrong IP/domain under the setting for
Limit access to setup to the following addresses, networks or hostnames

You can remove that from the config database for egroupware using phpmyadmin or rerun the install.

It's best left blank initially, you can add an IP there later after initial config is completed.

Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on March 14, 2007, 08:59:59 PM: Hi !

Cola29, I did this howto because it's not secure to put web apps like eGroupWare in an ibay. Especially if you do this :
Quote from: "cola29"
Name=egroupware
Group: Everyone
User access: Write = group, Read = group
Public access : Entire Internet (no password required)

Just download the files (http://www.rkscomputersolutions.com/egroupware.zip) and launch the script, follow the setup howto also... This has been tested and it's working fine. Read the entire post, it's full of problems/solutions. Take care of web-setup process, follow the howto... If you want to customize the config, please do it after finishing the 1st run.

About the custom template you created :
Quote from: "30mbstring"
mbstring.func_overload = 7

This is globally activated and there is no need to do so ! It just need to be set for egroupware's ibay (if you still want to use the ibay install). phpMyAdmin have problem with that. Look here for more infos (http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=34362.0) (search for mbstring in the page)

Title: solved- getting blank screen after initial setup
Post by: cfmunster on March 31, 2007, 08:13:45 PM: Hey, great contrib! I just did a clean install of SME Server 7.1 and got all the software updates. I did the install of eGroupware and, like several other people, got to a point where I did the initial config and got a blank screen on the next page in my browser.

To solve the problem, I accessed the server command-line and used vi to edit /opt/egroupware/html/header.inc.php. I had to change these lines:

define('EGW_SERVER_ROOT','/path/to/egroupware');
define('EGW_INCLUDE_ROOT','/path/to/egroupware');
define('PHPGW_SERVER_ROOT','/path/to/egroupware');
define('PHPGW_INCLUDE_ROOT','/path/to/egroupware');

to these values:

define('EGW_SERVER_ROOT','/opt/egroupware/html');
define('EGW_INCLUDE_ROOT','/opt/egroupware/html');
define('PHPGW_SERVER_ROOT','/opt/egroupware/html');
define('PHPGW_INCLUDE_ROOT','/opt/egroupware/html');

Not sure why the initial setup didn't write those lines correctly, but they didn't. Now everything works great!

Thanks for that information. Did you use Internet Explorer to install the certificate? Have you changed any of the standard settings in the dialogue? I tried to install the certificate but everytime I open the Servermanager I am asked again if I want to accept the certificate.

As cool34000 described earlier, I tried to do the "Introspection" for xmlrpc. And it says this:
Code: [Select]
Fault: Code: 5 Reason 'Didn't receive 200 OK from remote server. (HTTP/1.1 302 Found)' methods available at http://192.168.10.250:80/egroupware/xmlrpc.php
instead of that what cool34000 posted. I use egroupware via https and xmlrpc is activated?

The Logintest with eGWOsync fails.

Any Ideas what goes wrong?

I am struggling with the blank screen problem that others mentioned earlier in the postings. I will have a look and see how far I get.
Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: imcintyre on April 17, 2007, 04:39:27 PM: I have done a bit more work re the blank screen episode;
1) I followed cfmunsters posts
Quote
To solve the problem, I accessed the server command-line and used vi to edit /opt/egroupware/html/header.inc.php. I had to change these lines:

but I found that this file was completely empty.

I decided to start over again so I deleted the folder /opt/egroupware. I ran the egroupware.sh again. I do not get any errors but now I don't even get to the set up page.

So probably something is wrong with the sh file or the other two. I downloaded everything from the zip file that was posted about halfway through by rkscscc. Do these files still have the errors in them? Is there a checksum for it?

Thanks for any help you can lend.

Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on April 17, 2007, 05:34:10 PM: Hi !

I've done a lot of tests and I was never able to reproduce the extra character pb or the blank screen pb... This is really strange!

There are no errors in this file, I don't know why, maybe while dezipping or at download stage (binary vs ASCII) some of you get this error!

I would be curious to know how you download/unzip the file...
Here's my way: download the .zip file under windows, extract the downloaded files on my desktop, upload them using winscp and finaly launch the script with putty.

Infotip: If you want to reinstall eGroupWare, you also have to drop egroupware database!
I suggest you phpmyadmin to do that. Search for this contrib on this forum if you don't already have it.
The user shouldn't have to be deleted as the password is changed (this means the password also change for eGroupWare setup...)
The template is overwritten so no need to delete it.
Finaly, in some case you could need to delete cookies cache in your browser:
that happened to me once while I was testing and it was messing up the authentification just after install. It was trying to connect with the old cookie (not using the same password) and finaly it blacklisted me for 30 minutes because the cookie tryed more than 3 times to reconnect automatically :lol: I search a long time before understanding why it wasn't working anymore!
I hate cookies!!! :evil: lol

Also by the way, you cleaned the extra character in the script but did you checked the template ?
Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: imcintyre on April 17, 2007, 06:12:48 PM: Hi, thx for quick response.

I used winzip to extract into C: and then pscp to move over onto server.

I could not see an extra character at the end of egroupware.sh, but when I "arrowed" thru, I was able to go past the end of the line. I backspaced, tried again and it ran without errors.

I will follow the rest of your advice at home tonight.

One more pertinent item is that I tried this on an extra pc, not the one acting as my gateway/server. This machine is in server mode only. I was reluctant to screw up my main machine. I used the same domain name for it but a different server name. Is there some reason that I cannot use the local address i.e.192.168.***.***.

Thx in advance

Ian

You can even use IP or your server name, this should be the same.

If it isn't enough, clean cookie cache... Else... Well... Send me a plane ticket :lol:

I think the problem was around the local addressing and website names
If you look at my howto for the setup stage in the first page of this post, the only fields refering to your domain name are:
Quote
Database instance (eGW domain) : mydomain.com
Quote
Enter the hostname of the machine on which this server is running : mydomain.com
Have you changed those fields according to your specific config? (the server's name instead)
Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: imcintyre on April 19, 2007, 12:38:03 AM: Yes, well at least I tried. I used the local address in both cases because my production server has the domain name but there is nothing that I saw to specify server1 or server2 in the https://mydomain.com/egroupware.

So I ended up putting the 192.168.***.*** into both places. I think then there may have been a conflict with the variables where localhost was the correct answer. I think I posted the error I received last night but either I messed it up or it was removed(?). Anyways I can post again tonight when I get home.

I had tried 4 or 5 times and I got worn down by the experience. I figured that this could be the problem and the only solution was to try on production server. Besides, I was becoming rather adept at removing it.

I also made up a small how to for noobs like me to install phpmyadmin contrib which I will post later, it is probably child's play for others but I couldn't find any directions anywhere. Besides deleting databases, what else is it for? Couldn't I have just as easily gone into the directories and deleted the database?
Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on April 19, 2007, 01:02:48 AM: Re !

Well then I guess you should try proxypass, maybe that's the solution to run it in that specific config...
I don't use it myself but you should find some help over google or even here.

About phpmyadmin, before posting your howto, see this (http://wiki.contribs.org/PHPMyAdmin)
Don't know if you're using this dmay's version anyway...

phpmyadmin is just an easy web interface to mysql.
You can create, modify or delete users
You can create, modify or delete databases
You can import or export your databases (i.e. for backup purpose !)
...and more...
Please keep this rpm up to date as security issues are found from time to time (and/or close its access from the outside, especially if you don't need it)
Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: imcintyre on April 19, 2007, 01:32:35 AM: Yes I am using dmays contrib and I searched everywhere for a how to but could not find. I ended up using rpm to install but wasn't exactly sure how to go about...

I do not have it on my production server and I don't have access without vpn to my network to get at test. The whole database thing is is beyond me at the moment so I will keep it that way.

I was fighting the exact same problem, but found the solution late last night:

I was using the vi-editor in putty to edit the files as instructed in this guide, and i swear by my family grave, that i removed all unattended spaces in all files. So i was rather puzzled that it didn't work - right up 'till the point where i installed winscp and opened the files in notepad. There it was... the space character in the very end of the file: egroupware.sh.

So... for those of you who are struggling with the same error and can't get it to work: Try another editor. Try Notepad. I had such high thoughts of the vi-editor and practically no good to say about Notepad - now i have to rethink my priorities... darn it :wink:

And one last thing:
I can't thank you enough Cool34000, for the guide and for all the help you have done in this threat. I know it takes a lot of time, and hopefully you know that many of us would never have been able to get this to work, without you helping us. Thank you pal :D

I never did see the squares at the end of each line. I opened with vi, pico and notepade. My original error was that the *.sh would not run, error at line 97. I used pico to open it and did not see any characters. I went to last line which was one line below the last row of code (started with echo as I recall), backspaced once, saved and away I went.

I went to their website and there was a bunch of noise about turning on the asynchronous function and importing the cron, but no "how to"

Do you have this function working?

One lead may be sync eGroupWare with Outlook and let Outlook do what you are expecting.

Have you tryed to post on their forum?

The website isn't rich in howtos or docs about the contribs, but the core product is not badly documented...

As cool34000 described earlier, I tried to do the "Introspection" for xmlrpc. And it says this:

I tried the scripts from cool3400 and they seem to work after I corrected a permissions issue with the /etc/openldap/schema/phpgw* files.

When I try to execute one of the LDAP scripts in egroupware i always get this message: "Error: Can't bind to LDAP server: cn=root,dc=<xxx>,dc=org! /setup/ldapimport.php"

I am guessing that my egroupware configuration is wrong

You can easyly update this setting using phpmyadmin...

I saw the RPM version at sudemo but it's very old. I recommend not using it.
Dietmar Berteld has made an rpm based on this howto, it's better to use his rpm. See this page (http://wiki.contribs.org/Egroupware) in the wiki for more details. The bug I'm talking about is also in the rpm!

Post by: jester on May 29, 2007, 09:00:12 AM: SME does not store authentication information in LDAP, so you won't be able to authenticate SME users through LDAP.

There is work being done on this by Charlie (see bug: http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1543) but it is still in SME-Future as a NFR so it might take some time... i don't know of voting for bugs is being taken into account by the devs, but you could vote for it.

Post by: cool34000 on June 18, 2007, 08:49:44 PM: Hi all

Anyone using eGroupWare v1.2.106 should update ASAP as security issues were found. See http://www.egroupware.org/news for more details.
You have 2 choices:
1) update to v1.4
2) update to v1.2.107

Berdie made this rpm (http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=37313.0) based on the new release of v1.4 but there are not many contribs available right now as it's a new version.

So, as an alternative, I've made an rpm based on v1.2.107 to benefit from all features. All security issues are fixed in this release, as in v1.4.
This rpm can be found here (http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/sgomez/contribs/egroupware/smeserver-egroupware-1.2.107_2-1.noarch.rpm)
Installation process is the same, you just have to create eGroupWare's admin account and change both Header admin and Config admin passwords.
SME users can login (email auth) with their login/password

Please note that both rpms cannot update an existing installation of eGroupWare
For more details on how to upgrade an existing installation, RTFM!

Title: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: cool34000 on August 03, 2007, 11:10:00 PM: Hi,

What version are you using? 1.2.x or 1.4.x?
I've tested v1.2.107 on my new SME 7.2 (with updates) and it still works very well...
The error you've seen is not egroupware related: it's talking about horde.
Please rise a bug or search if there are no bugs about this problem.

Don't expect to see anything in Primary ibays, RPM install goes in /opt (both versions)

There are a lot of chance that you messed up your apache configuration and that after a reconfiguration all came back (thanks to the template system!)

No, I don't... Simply because this contrib is in "smecontribs" and I don't know how to update it and don't have the time to learn how.
Follow eGroupWare's upgrade procedure on their website.

I understand your time constraints.

I have performed several installs and upgrades of eGroupware (even your contrib) with good success. This time however I get an error when creating a new email. The FCKeditor apparently has a hard coded path that does not work with the contrib (I do not understand why ... yet).

If you have done this upgrade please let me know if it worked. If it did work I will start the process of beating the wall with my head until I understand it.

Thanks,

Kevin

Well, something has changed about fckeditor, so after the upgrade to 004 fckeditor couldn't load fckstyles.xml and every app using fckeditor (mail, knowledbase) has complained about this. After searching for hours I cleared my browsers cache and the problem was mirically gone.

I confirmed I updated with "1.4.004-2".

The "Check Installation" in setup does have a new warning "Checking PEAR::Auth_SASL is installed: False
PEAR::Auth_SASL is needed by: EMailAdmin, felamimail. You can install it by running: pear install Auth_SASL". "pear install Auth_SASL" does not work. do I need this? I can log into EGW.

When I compose a new email in Firefox or IE 6, 7, I get "Error loading '/egroupware/phpgwapi/js/fckeditor/fckstyles.xml' (http Status: 200)".

I do not have any errors in EGW.

In the messages log I have "httpd: PHP Warning: imap_open(): Couldn't open stream {localhost:143/notls}INBOX in /opt/egroupware/html/phpgwapi/inc/class.auth_mail.inc.php on line 76"

No errors in the httpd logs.

Post by: atariblau on April 24, 2008, 11:57:00 AM: @kevinb:

I had this particular error with FCKEditor when testing different CMS (websitebaker, phpwcms, ...) with SME as they're also using this inline editor. This error drove me mad and searching the web only resulted in very little hints to solve this problem.

But finally the solution was to add the following line to httpd.conf:

AddType text/xml .xml

So you have to integrate this line to the scripts of this contrib and the error should be gone.
For me it worked like a charm and with all scripts using the FCkeditor.

Post by: gerteb on May 14, 2008, 01:20:24 AM: Have today installed eGW 1.4.004 because i badly need groupdav to sync with Thundebird/Lightning.

The first attempts to open https://my.domail/egroupware/icalsrv/groupdav.php/addressbook/ returned http error 403

From the howto: http://wiki.contribs.org/index.php?title=Egroupware i expanded the file /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90egw-syncml to look like this:
<Location /egroupware/rpc.php>
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
</Location>
<Location /egroupware/icalsrv.php>
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
</Location>
<Location /egroupware/icalsrv/groupdav.php>
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
</Location>

When i now open https://my.domail/egroupware/icalsrv/groupdav.php/addressbook/ i am prompted to login, but no action is taken upon login with eGW user/password

The access_log shows: "GET /egroupware/icalsrv/groupdav.php/addressbook/ HTTP/1.1" 401

And the error_log shows: PHP Warning: imap_open() [<a href='function.imap-open'>function.imap-open</a>]: Couldn't open stream {localhost:143/notls}INBOX in /opt/egroupware/html/phpgwapi/inc/class.auth_mail.inc.php on line 76

Title: Re: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: gerteb on May 16, 2008, 06:40:17 AM: Have been digging into the auth problem with groupdav.php. PHP run as cgi does NOT support basic http auth!! As rpc.php, icalsrv.php and groupdav.php has to be run under PHP5, and sme does not work under PHP5, they have to be run under PHP5 as cgi :-x

But there seems to be som solution by use of apache rewrite :P Have found these 2 rewrite solutions:
http://www.sslcatacombnetworking.com/articles/http-authentication-php-cgi.html
http://drupal.org/node/97663#comment-468295

There is just a problem :? SME does not support .htaccess as far as i know, so the rewrite condition and rule has to be set in http.conf :?

Haven't figured out how and where to set the rewrite, but my experience with apache says it has to be in the virtualhost part. Can anybody help me with, how to set that in the httpd.conf template system?

Any help will be highly appreciated
Title: Re: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: gerteb on May 16, 2008, 07:02:52 AM: Forgot to say i'we tried to set this rewrite that as a test redirect to google

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .*
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://www.google.com/ [R]
# RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
</IfModule>

In both /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/98egroupware and /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90egw-syncml, and as global. Neither worked.

Believe it will work if placed i <VirtualHost 0.0.0.0:80> and <VirtualHost 0.0.0.0:443>, but don't know how to do it in the template system.

Title: Re: [HOW TO] Install eGroupWare on SME 7.x
Post by: gerteb on May 17, 2008, 11:53:30 PM: No i hadn't :shock: Spent several hours figuring that out :-? I am a newbie in that program, but now i rocks :lol: It could be a real competitor to w2k3sbs if the problem with national chars is solved. As i can see one of the next versions of icalsrv will include full suport of webDAV, so i presume that versions newer than 6.2 of SOGo connector eventualy will work with icalsrv.

To sumarize:

The file /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90egw-syncml shall look like this:
<Location /egroupware/rpc.php>
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
</Location>
<Location /egroupware/icalsrv.php>
Script PUT /opt/egroupware/html/icalsrv.php
AcceptPathInfo On
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
AddHandler ical/ics .ics
Action ical/ics /var/www/egroupware/icalsrv.php
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>
<Location /egroupware/icalsrv/groupdav.php>
Script PUT /opt/egroupware/html/icalsrv/groupdav.php
AcceptPathInfo On
AddHandler php5-cgi .php
Action php5-cgi /php5-cgi/php
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>
And execute expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf before editing /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.

And as a temporary hack, in the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf insert in the section <VirtualHost 0.0.0.0:443> insert the line:
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]

In the two files icalsrv.php and groupdav.php insert in the top this line:
list($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'], $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW']) = explode(':', base64_decode(substr($_SERVER['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'], 6)));

The explanation can be found at http://www.sslcatacombnetworking.com/articles/http-authentication-php-cgi.html

The rewriterule ought to be expanded with two rewritecond's so it only affects the two files icalsrv.php and groupdav.php. If somebody can tell me how to insert these lines in the httpd.conf template system, i will post the final solution here. Until then. Don't do expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf :shock:
