===Download & Install Zarafa rpms===
+
===Misc.===
 
 
http://www.zarafa.com/download-community
 
 
 
Distribution = Rhel 4
 
 
 
tar -zxvf zarafa-6.20-rhel4-i386.tar.gz
 
 
 
yum localinstall libvmime*.rpm libical*.rpm zarafa-6*.rpm zarafa-webaccess-6*.rpm zarafa-licensed-6*.rpm
 
 
 
===Download & Install alpha smeserver-zarafa rpm===
 
 
 
!!! THIS IS AN ALPHA RELEASE. BEWARE. FOR NON-PRODUCTION TESTING ONLY!!!
 
 
 
http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/dmay/smeserver/7.x/smeserver-zarafa-0.9-1a.noarch.rpm
 
 
 
yum localinstall smeserver-zarafa-0.9-1a.noarch.rpm
 
 
 
After rpm install executing two action scripts _should_ get you started:
 
 
 
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/zarafa-install
 
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/zarafa-create-user
 
 
 
Visit Zarafa WebAccess

===Zarafa config files===
 
 
 
nano /etc/zarafa/server.cfg
 
  mysql_user = zarafa
 
  mysql_password = 'yourpassword'
 
  mysql_database = zarafa
 
 
  user_plugin        = unix
 
  user_plugin_config = /etc/zarafa/unix.cfg
 
 
 
  attachment_storage      = files
 
  attachment_path        = /home/e-smith/files/zarafa
 
 
 
+ mkdir /home/e-smith/files/zarafa
 
 
 
nano /etc/zarafa/unix.cfg
 
  default_domain = yourserver.net
 
  min_user_uid = 5000
 
  min_group_gid = 5000
 
 
 
: I think that due to issues that arise from the unix plugin (including but not limited to) failed Outlook and Multi-Company support, we should revert back to using the db plugin.
 
:: go for it, So for a new user, 1. create in SME, 2. set qmail prop, 3. create in zarafa ?
 
:: if this is the way to go we tie zarafa commands into user-[create-delete], conf-password? etc
 
:: How hard is the transition, do you need to drop database/start again ?

Rough Guide to get Zarafa running. Lots more to do...

http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=42118.0

Misc.

List users:

/usr/bin/zarafa-admin -l

Update a user to admin status:

/usr/bin/zarafa-admin -u <username> -a 1


Issues

.qmail

  • The smeserver-mailsorting contrib sorts to Maildir folders,

zarafa won't see this mail. Disable procmail/maildrop and re-create internal zarafa rules

sv sigusr1 httpd-e-smith

Eg. modifying an ibay, causes a problem with webaccess

tail /var/log/messages
<snip>
Sep 28 16:30:27 kiwi httpd: PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - mapi_zarafa_getuser in Unknown on line 0
Sep 28 16:30:27 kiwi httpd: PHP Warning:  Function registration failed - duplicate name - mapi_zarafa_getgroup in Unknown on line 0
Sep 28 16:30:27 kiwi httpd: PHP Warning:  mapi:  Unable to register functions, unable to load in Unknown on line 0

most of these events will cause webaccess to break

# ls -la `slocate services2adjust | grep httpd-e-smith`

/etc/e-smith/events/remoteaccess-update/services2adjust/httpd-e-smith -> sigusr1
/etc/e-smith/events/timezone-update/services2adjust/httpd-e-smith -> restart

workaround is to

sv restart httpd-e-smith

fix is to work out why php is giving an error

Address book

The Zarafa global address book finds users and groups from /etc/passwd etc/group

We don't want machine names, ibays, system, the group of a user, maybe others. I don't see how to hide them, changing shell to /bin/false may break things

Folder Naming

SME and Zarafa use different folder naming. To enhance migration SME folders should be renamed prior to migration.

drafts > Drafts
junkmail > Junk E-mail
sent-mail > Sent Items
trash > Deleted Items

Migrating users and data to Zarafa

Zarafa migration whitepaper describes various ways of migrating your users and your data to a Zarafa server.

http://download.zarafa.com/zarafa/release/docs/zarafa_migration.en.pdf

IMAP migration from SME/IMAP to Zarafa/IMAP

Configure zarafa-gateway for migration enabling IMAP on port 144 only as shown above

Get imapsync and required perl module

wget http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/perl-Mail-IMAPClient/perl-Mail-IMAPClient-2.2.9-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm
yum localinstall perl-Mail-IMAPClient-2.2.9-1.2.el4.rf.noarch.rpm
wget http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync/dist/imapsync-1.264.tgz
tar -zxvf imapsync-1.264.tgz
cd ./imapsync-1.264
make install

Perform a user mail sync from SME/IMAP (host1/port1) to Zarafa/IMAP (host2/port2)

imapsync --noauthmd5 --host1 localhost --port1 143 --user1 <username> --password1 <password> --sep2 / --prefix2 "" --host2 localhost --port2 144 --user2 <username> --password2 <password>

Example to synchronize a user named 'bob' with password 'bob123' from SME IMAP into Zarafa:

imapsync --noauthmd5 --host1 localhost --port1 143 --user1 bob --password1 bob123 --sep2 / --prefix2 "" --host2 localhost --port2 144 --user2 bob --password2 bob123

After syncing is complete, stop zarafa-gateway service and/or edit /etc/zarafa/gateway.cfg to meet your needs.

SME Actions

Actions to be linked into events

user-delete

To delete a user from the server, use the following command:

 /usr/bin/zarafa-admin -d <user name>

The user will be deleted from the database. The store of the user will be placed in the public store, in a 'Deleted Stores' folder. This folder is only available to administrative users of Zarafa.
