No access rights via Outlook 2010 MAPI

kopiko

Hi there,

Same problem here (in Outlook 2013). It is not related to Windows or Office updates. Something regarding permissions has changed in the kopano-core between version 8.4.6 and 8.5. There is a workaround, adding a shared calendar doesn’t work anymore but you can still do the following: share the entire mailbox and give ‘no permissions’ profile rights on the highest level of the mailbox (only traverse rights) and subsequently read or write permissions on the calendar. If the other party then adds the entire mailbox to Outlook, (not only the calendar) the calendar will become visible again. There are other problems though, the delegate feature doesn’t work properly anymore in Outlook. Accepting meetings requests on behalf of someone throws an error message.

We have reverted the update (you can safely downgrade from 8.5 to 8.4.6), i guess 8.4.6 is the last version that works with Outlook.

Hello @kopiko,

thanks for the nice workaround, can see the calendar now, but even with settings rights from “everyone” and myself to “nothing” or “other” (like nothing but even without permission to list folders) i can see the inbox. - same at your side?

@ kopano-team - is this issue known and maybe fixed in future releases? - otherwise i need to downgrade

Not with 8.4.6, if I give someone permissions and without the ‘list folder’ option he is not allowed to browse my mailbox. It wouldn’t surprise me if this is different in 8.5 though…

it is :)

Our development is currently looking into the “not updating of calendars” for the old Zarafa mapi client, but as the mapi client is unsupported and untested in Kopano this did not come up earlier. We are currently expecting to know more on monday.

If you want to be kept updated I would recommend to open a support case.

Hi fbartels, thanks for the update. Cleary, something has changed between versions 8.4.6 - 8.5 regarding permissions. I know Outlook via MAPI is not supported but there are still people using it. We are slowly trying to push the DeskApp client but users generally do not like change…

I will open a ticket!

Yes, a new release of KC (8.5.4) has been made available yesterday which addresses this issue.

just FYI:

we are using a room called “Besprechungsraum”.
to accept everything in nearly realtime, “kopano-mr-accept” is used in cronjob.

if i call this line now i get following error:

the files are located in “/usr/share/kopano/php/mapi/”, all files are created on Feb 14th.

changed my php settings to “include_path=”.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/kopano/php"
now it can locate the files, but another error came up:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function mapi_make_scode() in /usr/share/kopano/php/mapi/mapicode.php on line 40

is this fixed in the new version from Feb 28th aswell?

Update:

upgraded my testsystem and the MAPI connection from outlook 2010 doesnt work
same for "/usr/sbin/kopano-mr-accept “Besprechungsraum” “/etc/kopano/dagent.cfg”

if i add /usr/share/kopano/php to the include paths, same error:

PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function mapi_make_scode() in /usr/share/kopano/php/mapi/mapicode.php on line 40
