Plan for a clean and fresh install on Debian Jessie

I'm currently planning to migrate (again) to a +Raspberry Pi 2 because my +Cubietruck Cubieboard3 is a bit nasty concerning port forwarding. It doesn't show up in my Fritz!Box so I cannot redirect the ports in a convenient way.

Again I updated my script for getting +Kolab and it should handle all the dependencies in the right way so that you will be able to install it via "apt-get" or "aptitude".

So feel free to get it from my site and test it.

And I will switch from Apache to NginX as a Webserver and IMAP-Proxy as well.

So come back again for updates

Update to Kolab 16

After a long time using +Kolab.org Community and some amazing news around this groupware I decided to go on with Kolab 16.

Currently there are not so many packages for my Debian Jessie release available.

So I decided to compile them again out of the development directory from http://obs.kolabsys.com:82/Kolab:/Development/Debian_7.0/

A few days ago I thought it went well but my Active-Sync was some sort of working. Contacts and Calendar is syncing quite well but no mails. 

I digged into the logfiles in the directory /usr/share/kolab-syncroton/logs and found two errors:

Call to protected method rcube_imap_generic::strToTime() from context 'kolab_sync_data_email' in /usr/share/kolab-syncroton/lib/kolab_sync_data_email.php on line 140

and

 Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /usr/share/roundcubemail/program/lib/Roundcube/rcube_imap_generic.php on line 3481

The first one is a known bug and I found it belongs to the new version of +Roundcube 1.2. Following https://git.kolab.org/rSe4d229229fa3de87f0d9c98156632adf8a87fb2d I also changed the line 140 and after that it was working like a charme again.

 The second one can be avoided in modifying the entry max_execution_time in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini.

So up to now I have the following packages running concerning Kolab:

To compile all the packages I created a little script in the past. It is working if you have a running kolab installation with all dependencies.

1. Create a working directory and change into it:
   mkdir /mnt/kolab
   cd /mnt/kolab
2. Put the script get_kolab.sh in this directory and make it executable.
3. Create some directories
   mkdir kolab_Development_src
   mkdir kolab_Development_deb
   mkdir compile_log
4. Change into the src directory and start the script get_kolab.sh with a parameter because it is the first time you start it
   cd kolab_Development_src
   ../get_kolab.sh first
5. It is necessary to run the script three times because it stops after some packages and I didn't solve this up to now because the workaround (restart) is so easy :-)
   It will continue after the last package
6. To install all the packages please add the following line top you /etc/apt/sources.list
deb file:/mnt/kolab/kolab_Development_deb ./

So enjoy the update like I do.
