Some quick further testing.

Fixed via D4352: Fix nsDS5ReplicaHost and nsDS5ReplicaPort.

Fixed in git master.

So I finally had some time to look into this some more. First, thanks to all others for their notes and further progress, this helped me today as well. I only had some of the issues others had, possibly as they have been fixed in the packages/upstream in the meantime, and hit some issues not yet mentioned here as well. What follows is an extensive log of and some notes on the relevant parts of my updates, changes and fixes since my last comment. Hoping this helps others further along as well.

I have included the patch and it's now building here: https://obs.kolabsys.com/package/show/Kolab:16:Testing/iRony

1. droped database roundcube in mysql
2. sudo setup-kolab roundcube

What calendar version? What calendar driver? Does it happen for every invitation?

wallace error mentioned here: T7247#100099

@waadaa85 : Did you try to limit synchronous (+S) and asynchronous (+A) threads?

Awesome job sevens !! Kolab Installation completed and kolab-setup ran successfully.
I've generated new cert-key pairs with letsencrypt.
Moving on :

Yes, now it works (tested with irony 0.4.8-1~kolab1).
Please push upstream.

Indeed, I failed to commit the latest version after I had experimented with getting rid of the use statements. So its those two commits here: https://github.com/michaelroland/kolab-iRony/compare/master...fix-canonical-principal-name-from-auth that make the patch.

Your patch does not work, at least for me.
My system is Debian 10 Buster (up2date).

@johndoe Yes, that's the only patch needed to make shortlogins work again.

Is https://github.com/michaelroland/kolab-iRony/commit/5a9cc8f0f131470caafa4253f1e7df19f57b9546 the only patch that is needed to fix the issue?

Btw. here is a version with the fix applied: https://github.com/michaelroland/kolab-iRony/tree/fix-canonical-principal-name-from-auth (not sure if I could have somehow created a merge request on this platform here)

I really tested the drivers only with Cyrus/Kolab DAV servers, so it might indeed not work with others, but I don't fully understand where's the problem. Could you provide the full dav.log (with dav_debug=true in config) from the unmodified code?

The standards do not define max length, but I think we can set it to 128.

The issue with shortlogins seems to stem from the transition to sabre/dav > 2.1. The AbstractBasic authentication backend API has changed since then and AbstractBasic now always uses the concatenation of the principalPrefix and the HTTP username as principal name (see https://github.com/sabre-io/dav/blob/4.4.0/lib/DAV/Auth/Backend/AbstractBasic.php#L107). To overcome this, we would need to override the check() method in iRony/lib/Kolab/DAV/Auth/HTTPBasic.php to return the canonicalized principal name:

Great, glad to hear it.

Thank you, it is resolved and along side with it, the folders in settings are now visible and editable again via the UI (path /?_task=settings&_action=folders). Thank you for fixing this, it was rather crippling

Thank you! It is resolved.

This was caused by a change of the default tasklist driver from kolab to database, which I have now reverted. Package build is still pending.

I believe this is resolved with the roundcubemail update from today, please reopen if you can still reproduce the issue.

I have the package php-net-smtp from the Ubuntu 18.04 repos which is version 1.8.0. I have tried updating to new Ubuntu versions but the last time I tried (in December) there were packaging problems. Is 18.04 still supported and if so, how can I get this newer library?

Hi emunson+machniak
I'll check this out. Just to be sure on what we are talking about, the net_SNMP package your are referring to : is it a php or a python3 package?
So much errors through pykolab on debian10 that I decided to revert to debian9 for the time being. Which doesn't work either with a recent debian9 "apt-get update" I've done...

It might be caused by outdated Net_SMTP package in the system (or in Roundcube's /vendor folder). At least version 1.10.0 is required.

I honestly don't remember, I did the update in late December and have only been able to send mail from external clients (and that is my work around). This is fairly irritating because it shouldn't be that hard but I managed to screw something up.

Root cause seems to be this: https://git.kolab.org/T7400

Hi emunson,

Reopen if this still is a problem please.

imap.user_mailbox_create() always returns a string, so this should be fine. Is there a command-line way to reproduce this issue?

Any chance I can get someone to look at this, I believe I have fixed all the config files that are related and were changed by the update, not sure what I missed.

Thx for the hints. I'l try the Git Version.

Well after much hair loss, it seems this issue was caused by the order the extensions were loaded in

Was probing this further, and noticed in listFolders the following responses:

Debian11 Install is testing....
check error with existing tasks on bug list.
As PHP and Python3 needs upgrades to newer versions, shipped with new distributions, there are still rough corners and known errors.

And yet another python exeption in wallace:

Thx for the help, to setup Kolab on Debian 11. I've encountered another Error after upgrading to PHP 7.4:

Ok, here we go; this is a long one as I encountered quite a few issues, but hopefully much of it is useful...

Work for for newer Distributions are still in progress!

work is in progress

No news yet from my side, sorry. Working life has grabbed me again, and I'll need a couple of contiguous undisturbed hours to narrow down the problem.

Thank you @mollekopf
Shortlogins still don't work, so I will wait what @sicherha can tell if he finds time looking into this.

I have pushed iRony 0.4.7 to Kolab:16. Don't know about the shortlogins, the code seems to still work in my tests, but I don't have an actual system that supports shortlogins that I could test against thunderbird.

Is this still a thing? Because I can't reproduce the issue.

@sicherha
Any news on this - shortlogin not working with latest iRony? No stress if you are busy with other things... let me know.

I think the username canonification is done by kolab_auth plugin. So, maybe some problem with loading plugins/configuration.

The iRony patch is now available in https://obs.kolabsys.com/package/show/Kolab:16:Testing/iRony
