Statsclient curl_easy_perform() and stats.kopano.com
-
I can’t remember that Kopano documentation mentions anything about sending server’s data to stats.kopano.com (OS, active users, etc.)
Is this really necessary? (It doesn’t go quite along with company’s motto: “Your data, your terms.”)
A question:
If a company decides to move from MS Exchange to Kopano, is it still possibile to apply for commercial support if the source code is customly modified (like Statsclient curl_easy_perform() ) for not sending such information to Kopano?
Thank You in advance. -
Hi @mapo,
this was a change that was introduced in the 8.7 release and is explained in detail in https://forum.kopano.io/topic/2110/kopano-groupware-core-8-7-final-available.
This also gives you a way to disable submission of these stats without the need to modify the source code.

No, support is coupled to the usage of our own binaries and packages.

Thank You very much, fbartels for your answer.
My fault. (I’m sorry… 'Didn’t know it can be turned off the easy way… :| 'will pay more attention to the official release notes…) -
Moreover, pay attention: I made the wrong decision by upgrading a customer from zarafa 7.1 to Kopano. I used the community binary because I had to do the upgrade really fast at only one weekend and didn’t have a “new” Kopano subscription at the moment (but an old Zarafa one) and so no access to the supported Kopano repo. After some days we bought new Kopano subscription but since then, I always have problems with the support because I’m still running the “not-supported” version and they don’t help me with this binary. I have to downgrade to the pretty old stable version, without knowing if someone would help me in any case. And they cannot tell me if a downgrade would work well.
