Kopano One installed in Debian 10 but not launching webapp in browser

mjdevilla

Hi,

We have tried to successfully install kopano in Debian 10 using the installation link below:
https://kb.kopano.io/display/WIKI/Kopano+One+on+Debian+10+-+quick+installation+instructions

However we are not able to launch it in the browser using https://<domain.example.com>/webapp/

Did we missed some steps or do we need to register the domain first? or can we run it locally?

Hope someone can shed some light on this.

Thanks.

regards,
Michael

Yes, you should use a domain name that can be resolved to the server you are installing on. Its technically enough when the domain resolves locally, but having a domain that also resolves externally has benefits such as directly receiving mails or the ability to request ssl certificates from lets encrypt.

Thanks Felix!

What is the default port for Kopano Web App? I need to setup the port forwarding, however the port 443 is already in used by another service.

Thanks.

I have set up port forwarding and registered the domain but still unable to load the front end. https://mydomain/webapp

Is there some steps that we have missed? How can we integrate Kopano One installed in Debian 10 to be accesed in web? how the web file can be accessed, in this case /webapp/.

For example: in apache it is located in /var/www folder and will need to just setup /etc/apache2/config to be able to run the web app. How does it work for Kopano One? Please help to advise.

Thanks.

on the same machine? Port 443 is the default port when it comes to services being available through https. For any other port you would need to specify it when opening the address, which negatively impact the user experience.

Kopano One delivers its own webserver to simplify the process of securely serving the WebApp. When following the instruction you have configured it in “11. Configure Kweb”. You could change the port of kweb in https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KGOL/repos/kweb/browse/scripts/kwebd.cfg?at=4323c71be30#50,55 (which also means that you would need to change the port in other places, such as server.cfg to open the right discovery document), but as said before then your users would need to remember a port on top of a domain name.

Generally speaking Kopano One should be installed on a new system, I am not sure if other applications running on the same server is a supported scenario.
