Prepare for the EWS / grommunio 2023.11.1 release

WalterH · 2023-11-06T19:37:33+00:00

The current community release contains the EWS code and many improvements. Unfortunately, there also some issues. Here I provide some tips and tricks to fix...

weini for me everything is working as intended after the last update(s)

Thanks, @WalterH , for providing this information. Very much appreciated.

BTW: why did the developers decide to use non-specfic file names such as nginx-access.log instead of package specific names such as grommunio-access.log? My server is not just running grommunio. Can I rise this issue somewhere?

This commit clarifies how to enable EWS: https://github.com/grommunio/gromox/commit/6e623631ccc32226fd1019add12e08aba2eb8e17 for testing.

TL;DR: Set ews_beta = 1 in /etc/gromox/ews.cfg. More details will be in the release notes tomorrow.

@WalterH : The dependency (php-intl) is in the packages since 2023-11-08, no need anymore to adopt the dependency or manually install as in your article.

Na dann bin ich auf die Release-Notes gespannt.
Konnte aber trotzdem nicht warten! Die neuen Icons im "Breeze"- Thema der WEB-GUI sind super.
Auf meinem Mac konnte ich ein Apple-Mail Konto einrichten, aber Apple Mail stürzt jedes Mal nach ca. 2 Sekunden ab. Kurz kann man einen gefüllten und aktuellen Posteingang erblicken, dann folgt der Absturz. Das warten wir mal wie gesagt ab!

THE_FRICKLER I have the same issue, Mail app crashes immediate. macOS Big Sure 11.2.3. I will update to 11.7.10 and test again.

THE_FRICKLER

I use macOs 14.1

THE_FRICKLER

and get this on Grommunio-Admin WEB

THE_FRICKLER

meine ews.cfg hat nur:

ews_beta=1
#ews_experimental=1
#ews_log_filter=*
#ews_pretty_response=yes
#ews_request_logging=yes
#ews_response_logging=1
#ews_debug=1
#smtp_server_ip=::1
#smtp_server_port=25

WalterH

THE_FRICKLER Development was able to reproduce this issue. I assume the release will be shifted for some days.

WalterH

Meine ews.cfg hat mehr Einträge ändert aber nichts.

ews_pretty_response=1
ews_request_logging=1
ews_response_logging=1
#ews_debug=1
ews_experimental=1
# ab 10.11.2023:
ews_beta=1

491810

The release came out a few days ago and the issue is still there. Or did anyone find a fix/workaround?

rosgarden

Wo findet man den die ews.cfg Datei, bzw. wo muss diese angelegt werden?

Mister2

rosgarden Create the file in /etc/gromox/ews.cfg

You will need at least:-

ews_beta=1
smtp_server_ip=::1
smtp_server_port=25

Then reboot for the settings to take place.

Mister2

A simple systemctl restart gromox-http will also do the trick instead of reboot.

WalterH

Mister2 smtp_server_ip=::1
smtp_server_port=25

I did not see any difference if this to settings exists or not in ews.cfg. I assume EWS works without of this settings.

Mister2

WalterH Correct, I just added it as I think the documentation suggests it should be there. When 11:2023 came out I could not send any emails via Mac Mail so added it, and about the same time the bug was fixed so have left it in 'just in case'.
