Hi,
I have been playing around trying to get a simple shared calendar set up for a customer with an Smeserver. There appears to be a problem doing this with the default calendar for each user. This seems to be related to the fact that the sme server htaccess uses a login of form user, password whereas kronolith uses (buried in the code I think) user@domain, password. I therefore created a shared calendar which creates a different URL for the remote access of
the calendar URL of the form https://www.domain/horde/kronolith/ics.php?c=d9de63bda5871f8db2cc05247f621cab
instead of
https://www.domain/horde/kronolith/ics.php?c=user@domain
The user of that calendar can then be set as user instead of user@domain, using the permissions pop up in horde.
I have used this URL in both thunderbird with lightning and in sunbird and can successfully download the calendar from horde.
The problem I am now facing is that I cannot publish the calendar, either usingthe same remote access url or (from the horde wiki) a url of the form
https://www.domain/horde/rpc.php/kronolith/d9de63bda5871f8db2cc05247f621cab
I have checked the apache logs and the URL is accepted with a 200 response. No errors from lightning/sunbird, but the calendar is not published.
Can anyone give any pointers of where to start troubleshooting this?
I Installed Kronolith using yum on smeserver 7.3 as per the wiki.

Just wondering if you ever found a solution to the publishing problem?
I've been trying for the best part of 2 years now to publish calendars from Sunbird/Lightning to Kronolith, but to no avail.
I'm after installing the most recent Kronolith/Horde contribs, but I still cannot get it to play well with Lightning.

I've been playing with thunderbird/lightning calendar sharing today and found that a single .ics calendar file can be shared on the network as long as when creating a new calendar in lightning the network location path of the calendar is entered as
file://///servername/ibayname/foldername/filename.ics
I've got two users sharing a calendar to test out how well it will work.

I've been fighting with it all day. I finally ran across this link: http://wiki.horde.org/KronolithSunbird
"Note: This is not an official Horde document. There is no write support in Horde 3.1/Kronolith 2.1"
Hopefully when SME 7.4 rolls out, it and the associated update to Kronolith will fix this shortcomming.

HTTP_WebDAV_Server-beta pear module is not part of SME or the Kronolith install. Perhaps if you manually install this on a test server and test it out, it may very well fix your issues. Kronolith 2.2 will be part of 7.4

Kronolith 2.2 will be part of 7.4
Hmm... just installed 7.3 (fresh) and updated to 7.4 via yum, but I don't have kronolith installed here. Would I need to install it manually?

Yes, you need to install in manually. I mis-typed the previous response.
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs update smeserver-kronolith
signal-event post-upgrade ; signal-event reboot
The install should install 5 rpm's, then you could manually install the WebDAV pear module.

Hi
I think you've mis-typed this too :)
it should be
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs update smeserver-kronolith
(without d at the end of "update") :wink:

I'm always a little leery about doing something that's not part of the core of SME, but I'd really love to get a good tie-in between Thunderbird, Lightning and Kronolith.
The shared calendar feature of Exchange/Outlook was one of the only things that made me hesitate when choosing this platform for this latest server. In the end, I couldn't rationalize $15k in licensing for a shared calendar, so if I could get this to work, we'd all be tickled pink.
My users used to use Kronolith via webmail, but complained because it wasn't integrated into their mail client and forced them to have an additional application running (oh, the horror!) This last point is why I'd be leaning towards using Lightning instead of Sunbird.

Are you sure kronolith installed previously in your server?
To install kronolith :
yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-kronolith
signal-event post-upgrade ; signal-event reboot

I installed Kronolith 2 months ago following the wiki guide. I followed it to the letter. (cut/pasted all commands)
I've been using Kronolith for the past couple months. It's definitely installed. The update command just fails to update it.
-
I just tried it again... The upgrade command still isn't doing anything for me.
Anyone having any luck with this? Is there a way to just straight install the new version without doing the upgrade process?
-
I just did this over the weekend and it worked fine for me. Over the weekend I also updated all of the horde components to the most current versions. All of those are currently in the smetest repo.
If you can't get them via yum, then you can download what you need, and do a - yum localinstall.
The most current files are here - http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/releases/7.4/smetest/i386/RPMS/

Just a quick one. I have been trying for some time to get Kron installed onto my box. I have SME7.4 (fresh and 7.4 (upg from 7.3) both inthe same boat looking for php-pear modules. Now I have broken SME in the past and vowed to install only kosher packages as my main server runs mail and web for my family (who get agitated when they can't get their mail)
Now I have been looking for some time for the packages, I have looked at the PHP5 wiki but as it is not supported am reluctant to install it in case I break it. So is there a PHP4 package for php-pear-net-URL, php-pear-net-socket, php-pear-HTTP-Request or can you direct me to the correct forum/wiki entry for info.
Thanks, Steve B

They are currently in the smeupdates-testing repo.
