Open-Xchange Hyperion VMware Image

Ok, here is the URL:

http://www.zion-control.org/open-xch...09.zip.torrent


The resources are missing at the moment and I think it would be a good Idea to have a WIKI-Page for the errata of this VM.

ok, update is done and I added a little script which does this automatically.

All the sources are in /opt/open-xchange-src

compress the VM now and provide it this evening. :-)

Nice,

I set up two torrent servers with 100 Mbps over the days - seeding should work much faster

My fullworking Ubuntu Images will be available this weekend.

Daniel

ok, now I got it "unixhierarchsep: yes" in imapd.conf should be set.

I updated the wiki a few minutes ago.

Now it seems to work.
I'll perform an update till the end of the week and release a new one :-)

Good idea - full ACK.
...
My suggestions:

• root-passwd: secret
• domain example.com
• hostname: etch-xchange-ce, dapper-xchange-ce ($distribution-xchange-$edition)
• networking: DHCP
• openexchange-password: secret
• oxadmin password: secret
• mysql-root-password: not set
• user : password: sally.sales:sally!, sean.sales:sean!, marry.marketing:marry, manuel,marketing:manuel!, robert.ressource:robert!
• groups: sales(sally.sales, sean.sales), marketing(marry.marketing, manuel,marketing)
• ressources: beamer, conference-room

create-user example:

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/createuser -A oxadmin -P secret \
 --username sally.sales --displayname "Sally Sales"\ 
 --password sally! --email sally.sales@example.com --givenname Sally\ 
 --surname Sales --language en_US --timezone Europe/London \ 
--department Sales --company "Open-Xchange Demo"

create-ressource example:

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/createresource -A oxadmin -P secret \
 --name beamer\  --displayname "Beamer" \
--email robert.ressource@example.com --available true \
  --description "Beamer with 1280x1024 resolution"

Hope this is all the stuff, anything else?
Will create a wiki entry which describes all this next week...

Daniel

Ok, gone so far.

but the mail setup does not work with these login names (in my case)

So the username should be name_surname ?

Sounds great :-)

Can't wait to take the image for a spin.

Cheers -

Well, when you use "!" in the command line without the single quotes around the parameter I think it will fail. ;-)

I'll check the VM this evening and provide a new one.

Really nice

For the User:
Is it ok to have a little CSV file which is the input for a little script that creates the user,groups and mailbox?

Nice improvement but at the moment the server-team is improving the commandline-tools so my suggestion is to wait with scripting until friday. I'm not sure if something changes...

The build-number should be in the filename also, what do you think?

Suggestion for filename:
open-xchange_community-edition_build-$buildnumber_date.zip

So everyone can perform a massupdate

Good idea - full ACK.

We should use a domain this is suggested to use for testing purposes as "Reserved Example Second Level Domain Names" in RFC 2606: http://www.rfc-archive.org/getrfc.php?rfc=2606


My suggestions:

• root-passwd: secret
• domain example.com
• hostname: etch-xchange-ce, dapper-xchange-ce ($distribution-xchange-$edition)
• networking: DHCP
• openexchange-password: secret

• mysql-root-password: not set
• user : password: sally.sales:sally!, sean.sales:sean!, marry.marketing:marry, manuel,marketing:manuel!, robert.ressource:robert!
• groups: sales(sally.sales, sean.sales), marketing(marry.marketing, manuel,marketing)
• ressources: beamer, conference-room

create-user example:

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/createuser -A oxadmin -P secret \
 --username sally.sales --displayname "Sally Sales"\ 
 --password sally! --email sally.sales@example.com --givenname Sally\ 
 --surname Sales --language en_US --timezone Europe/London \

Do you think that we can coordinate our work and setup the same system?

e.g. maildomain, preinstalled user and resources and skins and so on?

So it is better for all the guys to have a look at one ore working system with the same setup but different distribution?

[Daniel Halbe]

An Ubuntu Appliance would be great Daniel :-)

Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS Virtual Appliance will be finished until next week.

Daniel

An Ubuntu Appliance would be great Daniel :-)

Thanks a lot !

AFAIK Virtual Appliances for one or various distributions are planned to be distributed via Open-Xchange to make life easier for you

I myself will build a Appliance working with Debian Etch this week for my own requirements. If this Appliance is reviewed by QA and documentation is finished I'm looking forward to make this and perhaps the Ubuntu-Appliance to an official VirtualAppliance on VMNT.

Note that it could take some, during my testings on weekend I recognized some differences between Ubuntu and Debian Etch and I won't distribute stuff that isn't full working.

If you have any ideas / requirements regarding VirtualAppliances feel free to post it here - communitys output is a part of our input
