Hey guys, I'm trying to install sogo for the first time. I want to rip apart my exchange 2010 server(s). They have proven very unstable, no matter what you do. This morning for no reason mail stopped flowing all together, no errors in the logs, only a reboot fixed it. I'm tired of getting calls in the morning. Time to format and try something new.
My requirements are the following: a) Outlook access for about 12 computers b) IMAP/Mobile access for a tons of iphones/androids etc... c) 5 Backups, one for each weekday d) Support for extremely large mailboxes are > 100GB (they archive a ton of crap, but needs to be quickly accessible). Preferably zero storage limits. Hard drive space is of no object, I've got a raid 10 array of 1TB+ SATA drives. And a separate 3TB drive to hold the backups. Users share a single mailbox by department, so it's not unusual to have 5 users using a single mailbox simultaneously all day long, they use categories etc... to organize and distribute their work. e) Public folders (not really required except for the shared Master Contact List we use in outlook) f) Very efficient and speedy with large mailboxes (currently searches kills outlook for all users connected, appears frozen for minutes) g) I have a wildcard SSL certificate. h) Spam filtering (grey listing, white/black listing by server ip or email, dns blocklists, Bayesian filtering) i) Web admin tools to quickly do common tasks like creating mailboxes etc... j) I don't really care too much if it's connected to active directory ldap except for user authentication/passwords. What is it replacing? 1 exchange 2010 front end client access server (virtual machine) 1 exchange 2010 mailbox server (a real server, massive. This is where I want to put Ubuntu when I'm done and delete the other vm) GFI Mail Essentials (spam filtering, very good but buggy) Unfortunately, when I went to log into: http://ubuntu1:20000 I get: An unhandled error occurred. Here's what I did so far on my test box: a) Clean Installed Ubuntu 12.04 x64, only chose Bind DNS and OpenSSH b) Installed webmin and dependencies, along with the sogo module c) Installed MySQL (instructions for postgresql commands are too weird or wrong), devcot, postfix, samba4 d) Created an sql database called sogo, updated all the stuff to be utf8 in the configs e) Added the sogo repository to apt f) Installed sogo, sogo-openchange, openchangeserver g) Configured General Preferences, Users Sources, Database, SMTP server, IMAP server in sogo's webmin module and pressed 'test' they all worked. Added my username to the Super Usernames. h) Set the server url and name in the sogo conf for apache. So far I see apache2 won't start up right. Does anyone have a working config? I'm not sure where I went wrong, but the instructions leave a lot to be desired... as far as Ubuntu goes anyways. I wish they would just make a script to do all the initial defaults and install the required packages for you. I never get why people will make a fancy install document when they could have just coded it so we could be up in < 5 mins. Webmin comes to mind. Any help would be appreciated. -Kanaida -- [email protected] https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists
