@burgessja yes, that is pretty much the expected way unless there would be official builds from us. The good thing about go is that you could compile it on a different system (or in a container) and just copy the resulting binary to your target system.

@worms By looking around, kopano-cli is actually a python file… just had to install an older version of kopano-core somewhere to get the file on my current install…
For now it works… until the next update where Kopano dev will remove the ability to loggin as a user with the python lib :)
I hope this will not happens… otherwise, see you next year for probably my last good bye :’(

@bhuisman openSUSE’s build service is usually really good at having the latest (within reason) versions of packages but with kopano it seems very hit and miss. I’ve been using kopano/zarafa for many years now and for a lot of that time I’ve needed to use the nightlies from kopano/zarafa but for almost the same amount of time the versions built and distributed via openSUSE have been pretty recent so I’ve used their repository.

I’d much rather just subscribe to a repository and allow updates to just be available each time I update my server rather than have to keep downloading nightlies and installing them by hand, hence my preference for using the openSUSE packages. I guess it’s reached the point where I need to go back to the nightlies direct from kopano.

Thanks for you comments.

Hello everybody,
same here, I only need two users at the moment for private use only. I considered to by a subscription, 15€ / user would be ok for me. I also hope, that a minimal support option will come.

Hi @ramalingam,

I am not quite sure where you have seen packages for Fedora 26 (there are however archives for Rawhide and 30 in https://download.kopano.io/community/core%3A/). But these are there just because of internal tests and are not actively maintained or tested by us.

Like I said before I would recommend to check the supported distributions and then choose one of them to base your installation on.

@fbartels
Thanks for confirming. I guess I’m at where I’m at.

I may look into the nightlies if they are reasonably stable.

I can’t end up in the situation where I have an unstable mail system, as our personal email is used for all sorts of communication from my son’s school, bills, etc.

If 8.7 seems to work well, I may just run it with no internet access except postfix/mta which gets updated by Ubuntu & require my family to vpn in to use webapp & imaps. Everything else is listening on sockets/localhost at the moment.

@hinz_linux

Can you try to run https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse/ipf-imap-to-note

Thank you @AnotherAndy and @mcostan for your answers :)

i did notice Kopano doesnt host its own product. i think this is a shame :)

As a result, i have now setup a kopano server with AD myself :) took me a night but its working :)

@ishouldhavebeenaqatester
I think I have this solved!

After reading more on postfix, the logs were showing local delivery, so I changed

virtual_transport = lmtp:127.0.0.1:2003

to

mailbox_transport = lmtp:127.0.0.1:2003

So you my ask next: Why not use:

mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/spool/kopano/dagent.sock

?

Note: I also had to change /etc/kopano/dagent.cfg to also run on 127.0.0.1:2003

When postfix runs chrooted, it won’t have access to the socket that runs non-chrooted, so 127.0.0.1:2003 is a safer bet.

I hope this can help someone.

Hi @mcdaniels,

did you manage to do your update?

Disclaimer: I cannot recommend to use the nightly builds for a production deployment as they are not covered by our support.

@robing
Thank you - great! So easy …
I have to learn a lot about Kopano.

Hi @Donty

Awesome that you’re looking into Kopano as a candidate to replace your current server! I’m not entirely sure what you mean to ask with all your points, so perhaps you could clarify if you feel the answer is not really covering the question.

The MAPI storage layer is fully implemented - the actual data is stored primarily in a database (attachments and search index are stored on disk). Kopano does not come with it’s own web administration console. There are a few partners that do offer this (for example Univention). There are many command-line utilities (e.g. kopano-admin, kopano-storeadm, kopano-backup) etc. that an administrator would use to get an overview of what is going on at the system. Yes, we do not ship our own MTA but offer various integration options. Postfix is the recommended way. At this moment, there are nightly builds available for the community. Tested binaries with access to support requires a paid subscription. While Kopano One could perfectly be used in containers/vms/instances(?), this is not it’s only goal. It can be installed on supported operating systems (Debian 10 at the moment, RHEL8 is currently in ‘the works’). It is geared towards easier installation and maintenance in single server installations. Kopano Groupware, WebApp and the other projects will continue to be developed/maintained and can be used with a subscription as well. While we have been focused on getting Kopano One (with Groupware Core 9) out the door for the past few months, Groupware Core 9 will also make it’s way into the supported repositories.

Hope this helps in your selection process!

@eugene-vdm

enable this if its possible.

# Source: # https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/httpoxy-protect-your-server/ # a2enmod headers <IfModule mod_headers.c> RequestHeader unset Proxy early </IfModule>

Is this feature planned for the future? We’ve got exactly the same issue and it’s not very user friendly.

Hi @robp2175,

have you tried to call the ical address with your browser?

Hi @pixel,

the nice thing about a rest api is that since its webbased you are free to choose your local implementation language (you could even do it with curl from the command line). Either your ERP has a native functionality to call out external applications or you need some sort of middle ware (on the same server or a different vm/container/whatever) that connects to Kopano through the RestAPI and uses whatever api your erp system has to connect to it.
