Can't create user! java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: OXUserIMAPExtension

[Ben Pahne]

When you encounter this problem during the "createuser" process then you have to do this:

Delete all log files in /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/osgi/:

rm *.log /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/osgi/

and then delete the directory org.eclipse.osgi

rm -r /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/osgi/org.eclipse.osgi

Then open the file /opt/open-xchange/sbin/createuser and add the ox_admin_plugin_imap.jar.

# Old Entry
#$JAVA_BIN -classpath $LIBPATH/ox_admindaemon.jar:$LIBPATH/ox_admin_console_ee.jar:$LIBPATH/commons-cli-1.0.jar $JAVAMAIN $*

# New Entry
$JAVA_BIN -classpath $LIBPATH/ox_admin_plugin_imap.jar:$LIBPATH/ox_admindaemon.jar:$LIBPATH/ox_admin_console_ee.jar:$LIBPATH/commons-cli-1.0.jar $JAVAMAIN $*

Then restart the open-xchange-admin daemon.

When you have other problems with creating a new user then check for a correct imap configuration in the installation document.

I'm still experiencing this problem and I've noticed that the source for both createuser and createcontext has been improved by collecting all .jars automatically.

ADMINCP=$(for jar in $LIBPATH/ox_admin*.jar; do
    echo -n "${jar}:"
    done)
$JAVA_BIN -classpath ${ADMINCP}$LIBPATH/commons-cli-1.0.jar $JAVAMAIN $*

If I echo ADMINCP I get:

/opt/open-xchange/lib/ox_admin_console_ee.jar:/opt/open-xchange/lib/ox_admin_plugin_context_light.jar:/opt/open-xchange/lib/ox_admin_plugin_imap.jar:/opt/open-xchange/lib/ox_admindaemon.jar

The error is:

Server response:
 RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is:
        java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling arguments; nested exception is:
        java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.openexchange.admin.rmi.extensions.OXUserIMAPExtension

So what's going on here?
