Undefined constant PR_RECEIVED_BY_SMTP_ADDRESS in grommunio Web

Hello, I am a French self-hosting user, and first of all I want to say that I really like the grommunio project. The idea of having an open-source, Exchange...

That's what I did, but it didn't work again.

That's what I did, but it didn't work again. Is my suggestion valid and could it help the community, or am I way off base?

I have exactly the same problem with a fresh installation. reboot does not help.

Adding the temporary definition as suggested by @souverain was the solution

Before the $smtpprops = mapi_getprops(...) call:

if (!defined('PR_RECEIVED_BY_SMTP_ADDRESS')) {
define('PR_RECEIVED_BY_SMTP_ADDRESS', 0x5D07001F);
}

@WalterH rwwinter So, regarding this governance process, can a member please propose a solution that works? I’d like to know how it works and also when the update will be released, because I’d prefer a system that’s been validated by the community with clean code rather than my own code, especially since I’m not an expert at all, so I feel more confident knowing that the code has been audited and validated by experts.

fix is underway and available in ~ 1 hour. mapi-header-php is the package to look out for.

souverain

mwilliams Wow, you guys are amazing! I really love this community (but are you really sure my code is correct? I'm definitely not an expert).

The right fix is 2-parted, one in gromox (permanent) and one in mapi-header-php (for the time being).

mwilliams

updates are just being published.

souverain

mwilliams Wow, that's crazy, I love it!

So does that mean I have to update it from /license via the web admin panel?

souverain

mwilliams @WalterH

Wow, I'm really proud to have done my part and completely amazed by how responsive this community is! I love it.

I just updated everything and it's all working, I'm all set now ;-)

I’m going to test it out now and wait a few weeks to see if this solution works for me, but I think I did everything right (I spent a whole day debugging and configuring it—it’s the first time I’ve ever done this). Here’s my current setup, by the way :

I’ll also take this opportunity to write a post on my site https://souverain.ovh, and share my experience.

A big thank you to everyone! And long live this wonderful project!

The current community g-web 3.17.293 is buggy, Downgrade to grommunio-web-3.17.278.

Down load it from here: https://download.grommunio.com/devel/openSUSE_Leap_15.6/grommunio-web-3.17.278.g9102a724b-lp156.463.1.noarch.rpm

souverain

WalterH thank you. I just did it, right now!

mwilliams

to clarify (and repeat): don't downgrade. update grommunio-web and mapi-header-php. The fix for grommunio-web is in the dependency mapi-header-php.

souverain

mwilliams @WalterH Thank you both for the clarification.

I reverted back to the recommended setup and updated grommunio-web again instead of keeping the downgrade.

Current versions are now:

grommunio-web-3.17.293.g31140c718-lp156.470.1.noarch
mapi-header-php-2.1.16.dd3580a-lp156.7.1.noarch
gromox-3.7.130.m30144a6-lp156.20.1.x86_64

I also confirmed that PR_RECEIVED_BY_SMTP_ADDRESS is now defined in:

/usr/share/php-mapi/mapitags.php

with:

define('PR_RECEIVED_BY_SMTP_ADDRESS', mapi_prop_tag(PT_UNICODE, 0x5D07));

After restarting php-fpm/nginx and forcing a browser refresh with Cmd+Shift+R, everything works correctly again. I can open received messages in grommunio Web without the previous error.

So the final conclusion is clear: no downgrade is needed. The fix is in mapi-header-php, and grommunio-web 3.17.293 works correctly once mapi-header-php is updated and the browser cache is refreshed.

Thank you again for the quick fix and for the clarification.

WalterH

Mike is right, we need to update 1.; mapi-header-php-2.1.16.dd3580a-lp156.7.1.noarch.rpm and 2.: grommunio-web-3.17.293.g31140c718-lp156.470.1.noarch.rpm
Than clear the Browser cache with CTRL-SHFT-R.
