Better documentation for Kopano ONE installation?

The_Cranberries

Hi,
is there any better documentation for Kopano ONE installation? To be honest, I actually do not like this one: https://kb.kopano.io/display/WIKI/Kopano+One+on+Debian+10+-+quick+installation+instructions

I should change 1000 config files, but nothing about the “why”. What I am changing here? What are these Kopano services about?
If I should change all these files, why is there no setup script, that does that for me? At least this is a “quick install” guide
Why is LDAP used in this quick setup? I guess the DB user management is the simplier one for a quick setup?

I’m also missing some diagram, what all the Kopano services do and how they fit together. Maybe something like this: https://docs.iredmail.org/used.components.html

Found this error:
In documentation it is said that in file /etc/kopano/ldap.cfg the variable ldap_bind_password should be set. But in that file the variable is called ldap_bind_passwd.

Hi guys,

I also found an error in the instructions.

When configuring Postfix, the virtual_mailbox_domains value should be set as follows:

sudo postconf -e virtual_mailbox_domains=$(hostname -d)

This will set the value to only domain name e.g. example.com

Wish everyone good luck with the installation. It worked for me.

Many greetings Martin

Hi @Martin,

actually the man page of the hostname utility recommends to use -f over -d:

       -d, --domain
              Display the name of the DNS domain.  Don't use the command domainname to  get  the  DNS  domain  name
              because  it will show the NIS domain name and not the DNS domain name. Use dnsdomainname instead. See
              the warnings in section THE FQDN above, and avoid using this option.

       -f, --fqdn, --long
              Display the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name). A FQDN consists of a short  host  name  and  the  DNS
              domain  name.  Unless  you are using bind or NIS for host lookups you can change the FQDN and the DNS
              domain name (which is part of the FQDN) in the /etc/hosts file. See the warnings in section THE  FQDN
              above und use hostname --all-fqdns instead wherever possible.
