New submission from Andrea <soliva at comcept.ch>:

Hello

finally I got Kolab2 V2.2.1 Final up and running. I posted the overall
documentation in Wiki:

http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Solaris with the link:

http://www.comcept.ch/kolab2/solaris_10_kolab2_2.2.1_install.txt

Regarding the overall installation some notes/info/questions:

http://www.mail-archive.com/openpkg-users@openpkg.org/msg03468.html This
issue regarding not useable TLS/SSL libraries is based on the check how this
is determed. I used newest openssl-0.9.8k-20090326.src.rpm openpkg package
as apache-2.2.11-20090201.src.rpm and with the new apache package it works.
To cover the compilation from beginning I manipulated 00INDEX.rdf.

https://www.intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue2924 . For this I received a
link and a comment "Please try install-kolab.sh from CVS HEAD".
http://kolab.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs-kolab.cgi/*checkout*/server/install-kolab.s
h . I tested and it seems to work without error but this is not included
within the final release and because of this I documented in this way that
the -maxdepth/-mindepth has to be completly removed from the
install-kolab.sh.

https://www.intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue1809 .This issue I'm only able
to solve if I include in the .spec file "--enabled-shared=yes" after the
compilation fails as to install the package manually. As a pity I was not
able to build in this option in 00INDEX.rdf which would be nice. Any hints
appriciated how this can be performed.

https://www.intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue3315 . This issue still exists
and is still the case for following packages:

PEAR-Horde-Channel	"install: pear.horde.org.xml was not found
anywhere!"

PEAR-PHPUnit-Channel	"install: pear.phpunit.de.xml was not found
anywhere!"

Workaround for external authentication has to be still implemented and is
based on behaviour of Solairs
http://www.postfix.org/SMTPD_POLICY_README.html

After Installation "and correct generating the cert" following appears in
the apache log:

[warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `kolab2.mydomain.ch' does NOT
match server name!?
[notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...
[notice] Digest: done
[notice] Apache/2.2.11 (OpenPKG/CURRENT) mod_ssl/2.2.11 OpenSSL/0.9.8k
PHP/5.2.8 configured -- resuming normal operations

This is based how you configure httpd.conf.template. Solaris 10 does not
like within a Zone that to localhost is pointed and it seems that in this
way the host name can not be anymore correct defined. I changed to IP and
the warning dissapeared:

	Listen xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80
	Listen xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:443

Finally I tested everything and also looked through the logs. From functions
point of view all is working now issues found but there are some questions
from my site which would be intressting to be verified or commented on your
site:

Even all works I have in the logs for impad following:

==> /kolab/var/imapd/log/cyr_db.log <==

/kolab/var/imapd/db: cyrusdb error
Apr 13 09:40:16 sphaere <notice> ctl_cyrusdb[19070]: done checkpointing

I do not know where this log entries are coming from....I checked the log
permisssion and if I set to 777 (which is of course not visible) the error
does not disappear. The warning regarding DB4 I was also not able to
identify...can you give me some hints specially regarding DB4 which seems to
be configured with a local path instead of absolut one?!

Regarding Horde following questions/notes

I configured  /kolab/etc/kolab/templates/slapd.conf.template in and
activated:
include /kolab/etc/openldap/schema/horde.schema as defined in
/kolab/var/kolab/www/horde/config/conf.php "$conf['auth']['admins'] =
array('user at mydomain.ch');" . In this way I'm able to manipulate Horde from
this defined user but this seems not be the right way? What are here the
rules specially because I saw that in the template dir a lot of horde stuff
appears. I saw that under the global config of Horde the Tab Kolab appears
but the fields are used with example stuff. I changed and after applying the
Konfig everything failed and I had to roll-back. At the moment I do not
understand the system here used meaning is it visible to manipulate horde
over web?

Even horde seems to work for a normal user I have a lot of funny stuff
within the log like:

What I have also to say is that Horde is very slow...any ideas to speed up.
My server has 4 CPUS and 4 GB Memory as is using the fast ZFS Filesystem!?
Also that Horde cache's within tmp is not a good idea meaning if I
understood all correct this cache files will nobody clean up correct?

I hope this gives you a overview and would be nice to have some feedback
regarding the comments/notes/info etc.

Mit freundlichen Grüssen
