Not Found: PHP mapi extension not found

hispeed

Hi,

Kopano Core is running. Now I downloaded and installed succesfully the webapp.
I’m running it on: Ubuntu 18.04

I used this procedure for the installation:

	//Installation of Webapp
	mkdir -p /home/kopano/webapp
	cd /home/kopano/webapp
	wget https://download.kopano.io/community/webapp:/webapp-3.4.14.1465%2B836-Ubuntu_18.04-all.tar.gz
	tar xfvz webapp-3.4.14.1465+836-Ubuntu_18.04-all.tar.gz
	cd /home/kopano
	apt-ftparchive packages webapp/ > webapp/Packages
	echo "deb [trusted=yes] file:/home/kopano webapp/" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kopano-com.list
	apt update
	apt install kopano-server-packages kopano-webapp
	
	cd /etc/kopano/webapp
	nano config.php
	// Changes made in the config file (just for testing)
	define(„INSECURE_COOKIES“,true);
	
	service apache2 reload
	sudo ln -s /etc/php/7.2/mods-available/kopano.ini /etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d/

Now I’m getting the error mention in the topic when I want to open the Kopano Webapp webpage. Yes I found and tried that: https://kb.kopano.io/display/TS/PHP+mapi+extension+not+found
It’s still not working the kopano.ini is in: /etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d/kopano.ini
And this: https://forum.kopano.io/topic/217/php7-mapi-not-found/5 didn’t help either :(.

My whole installation is based on: https://www.pc-howto.com/kopano-der-neue-stern-am-groupwarehimmel-teil-1/#comment-152876

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help.

Hi hispeed,

it looks like you didn’t install the php-mapi (or php7-mapi) package. Don’t forget to reload apache after installing it.

Manfred

Probably you’re right…

Next question how do I install that? I have done the installation of the core like that:

// Beginn der Core Installation auf Ubuntu von Kopano
mkdir -p /home/kopano/amd64
cd /home/kopano/amd64
wget https://download.kopano.io/community/core:/core-8.6.80.760_0%2B90-Ubuntu_18.04-amd64.tar.gz
tar xfvz core-8.6.80.760_0+90-Ubuntu_18.04-amd64.tar.gz
cd core-8.6.80.760_0+90-Ubuntu_18.04-amd64
cd /home/kopano
apt-ftparchive packages amd64/ > amd64/Packages
echo "deb [trusted=yes] file:/home/kopano amd64/" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kopano-com.list
apt update
apt install kopano-server-packages

I was thinking the core is now complete installed because fbartels helped me ^^.

apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-php7.0
phpenmod kopano <-- I have installed apache with the following command: apt-get install mysql-server apache2 phpmyadmin

Manfred

Hi hispeed,

yes, the core installation is probably completed, but e.g. WebApp and Z-Push require php-mapi package. As I understood you created a local repository, so you should be able to do the following:

apt install php-mapi

(or maybe it’s called php7-mapi on Ubuntu 18).

Thanks for your answer.

root@svgwma-kopa-02:/etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d# apt install php7-mapi

Unfortunately it’s still not working and it looks like, it’s already installed.
Is there any log files which could help?

Manfred

Hi hispeed,

then it’s not enabled or correctly configured in apache. Did you do:

phpenmod kopano
service apache reload

?
Or you could create a php file which contains phpinfo(), open it in browser and search for mapi.

<?php
phpinfo();

To check if php-mapi is available on CLI run

php -i | fgrep mapi -A 4

Manfred

I recieve that:

root@svgwma-kopa-02:/etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d# phpenmod kopano
WARNING: Module kopano ini file doesn't exist under /etc/php/7.2/mods-available
WARNING: Module kopano ini file doesn't exist under /etc/php/7.2/mods-available

It doesn’t look so good…

I found out that the kopano.ini file was empty in /etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d
how should that file look like?

Manfred

Hi hispeed,

then maybe the package wasn’t installed correctly? Did you run php -i | fgrep mapi -A 4?

The kopano.ini file contents:

; Enable MAPI extension module
extension=mapi.so
; Adding path with php mapi classes to include dir
include_path="${include_path}:/usr/share/kopano/php"

Manfred

hispeed

The problem was kopano.ini and it happens like that.

If you’re installing it on a fresh installation the default kopano.ini with the as you mention above will be in:
/etc/php5/mods-available/kopano.ini
If you create a symlink with https://kb.kopano.io/display/TS/PHP+mapi+extension+not+found it will not work and mostly just create a empty kopano.ini file.
Copy the lines from you kopano.ini file and create manually with nano a new one in: /etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d
After that you can delete the file: /etc/php5/mods-available/kopano.ini

Thanks for your help.

I can now successfully view the webapp.

Yes, that is a known issue already: https://jira.kopano.io/browse/KC-1121
