Dear sogo community,
first of all I wanted to thank the inverse team, Péter Szladovics and
Olivier Bitsch. With the help of their tutorials, VMs and scripts I was
able to build an ansible playbook for installing SOGo and OpenChange. I
need Outlook support, so the OpenChange part was critical. Thanks again,
great work!
But I am still having some issues. One is this "uncaught exception" that
raises once in a while. Every time it does, Outlook looses connection to
Exchange. It often happens when I try to share a user's calendar with
another user:
/usr/sbin/samba: Uncaught exception NSInvalidArgumentException, reason:
SOGoMAPIDBFolder(instance) does not recognize folderType
When I restart samba4 (which doesn't die, at least not entirely),
Outlook can reconnect, but the expected changes of the permissions
didn't happen. I uploaded a verbose (level 5) samba log of the event
here: http://pastebin.com/HhMmc7rN. My smb.conf is like that:
http://pastebin.com/L1TxejnP. Sogo is configured with GNUStep, the
sogo-tool dump-defaults is: http://pastebin.com/bemzrg7c. I use
postgresql as database backend and dovecot as imap server.
In general outlook works. I can receive and send emails, I can create
and modify calendar items and contacts. Only calendar sharing is limited
and I have stability problems because of such exceptions that make a
restart of samba necessary. Regarding calendar sharing: I can share
calendars in SOGo web interface and it fully works there. My partner can
create, modify and delete calendar items for me. But this doesn't work
in Outlook. For Outlook the same shared calendar is read only and I only
see the free/busy information, not event details. If I want to change
the permissions for my calendar through Outlook it doesn't let me choose
options that allow the other person to make changes. I can select them
but they would immediately switch back to the read only versions when I
commit the changes. And most of the time such operations cause
exceptions like the one described above.
Is this normal behavior because of the limits of the outlook
compatibility or can it be solved? I read that seeing the details of
appointments may not be supported. Is this still the case and if yes -
is it likely to change? Are there ways to make it happen?
Thanks a lot for any help or hint!
Michael
