Hello list.
I'm trying to get CalendarServer working on freebsd as the sf.net
page says
that it builds and runs here. The sf.net page points towards the
bug tracker
and I don't see any bugs listed there, but it needs coaxing to build
pykerberos and pysqlite. After getting it built, it fails to start
up. I'm
mostly wondering if anyone has it running on FreeBSD and could give
some tips
before I sink a lot of time into trying to get it up and running.
No need to
reinvent the wheel, I figure, but if the wheel isn't invented
yet...Anyhow,
thanks for any help you can provide,
I've got it working on two FreeBSD 6.2-R boxes not so long ago.
Install the following ports:
/usr/ports/textproc/py-xml
/usr/ports/security/py-openssl
/usr/ports/devel/py-dateutil
/usr/ports/security/krb5
/usr/ports/databases/py-sqlite3/
/usr/ports/lang/python24/
/usr/ports/databases/py-pysqlite20/
The build will look for gssapi.h in /usr/include/gssapi. Kerberos
installs this to /usr/local/include/gssapi, so I just did a symlink.
# cd /usr/include
# ln -s /usr/local/include/gssapi .
Check out the trunk with SVN:
# cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion/
# make -DWITH_MOD_DAV_SVN install
(or ensure that svn --version tells you that you got the ra_dav
module enabled).
# svn checkout http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/calendarserver/
CalendarServer/trunk CalendarServer
# cd CalendarServer
# ./run
Aha. This will probably fail. Change the path (first line) for bash
from /bin/bash to /usr/local/bin/bash
Now try it again:
# ./run
This will download and build the other dependencies like pyOpenSSL,
PyKerberos, vobject, xattr, etc.
# ./run
Will complain about a missing configuration file:
# cp conf/caldavd-test.plist conf/caldavd-dev.plist
# ./run
Fails again, this time with something like: "bin/caldavd: 47: Syntax
error: Bad substitution"
# vim ./bin/caldavd
Modify the try_python () function to look like:
==
try_python ()
{
local python="$1"; shift
if [ -z "${python}" ]; then return 1; fi;
if ! type "${python}" > /dev/null 2>&1; then return 1; fi;
local py_version="24";
#local py_version="$(py_version "${python}")";
if [ "24" -lt "24" ]; then return 1; fi;
#if [ "${py_version/./}" -lt "24" ]; then return 1; fi;
return 0;
}

Not neat at all, but it did the trick. I hope you use Python 2.4
(but as I mentioned it earlier, install it).
# ./run
It should start up now.
(Oh, by default it will start the server to listen on 127.0.0.1, to
change it edit conf/caldavd-dev.plist and look for the BindAddress
section and change it).
If you run into any problems, let me know and I'll try take a look.
Cheers,
Jaco
