Introduction

This is a very preliminary writeup on the installation of Funambol on an SME8b5 installation for use with Sogo

Use only for testing on non production machines and when you find an error, please correct it right here :-)

Download & Install Funambol

Goto https://www.forge.funambol.org/DomainHome.html to download Funambol 8.0. The latest GNU/Linux 32bit funambol server is 8.5, but this has not been confirmed yet for use with SOGO. 

cd /opt
wget http://download.forge.objectweb.org/sync4j/funambol-8.0.2.bin

Run the binary to install: 

chmod +x funambol-8.0.2.bin
./funambol-8.0.2.bin

Agree on the licence terms and accept /opt as the directory to extract Funambol. This will install it in: 

/opt/Funambol

At the end of the install, answer NO on the question if you want to start the server.

Download Apache Commons components

Download components from here 

http://commons.apache.org/

Copy components in the following directory 

cd /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/

collections (v3.2.1)

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/collections/binaries/commons-collections-3.2.1-bin.zip
unzip commons-collections-3.2.1-bin.zip
cp -p commons-collections-3.2.1/commons-collections-3.2.1.jar /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/
rm -rf commons-collections-3.2.1

confguration (v1.6)

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/configuration/binaries/commons-configuration-1.6.zip
unzip commons-configuration-1.6.zip
cp -p commons-configuration-1.6/commons-configuration-1.6.jar /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/
rm -rf  commons-configuration-1.6

logging (v1.1)

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/logging/binaries/commons-logging-1.1.1-bin.zip
unzip commons-logging-1.1.1-bin.zip
cp -p commons-logging-1.1.1/commons-logging-1.1.1.jar /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/
rm -rf  commons-logging-1.1.1

lang (v2.4)

wget http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/lang/binaries/commons-lang-2.5-bin.zip
unzip commons-lang-2.5-bin.zip
cp -p commons-lang-2.5/commons-lang-2.5.jar /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/
rm -rf commons-lang-2.5

json-simple

cd /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/
wget http://json-simple.googlecode.com/files/json_simple.jar

Install Funambol SOGO Connector

Check here: http://www.scalableogo.org/english/downloads/backend.html for the latest version of the Funambol SOGo Connector 

cd /opt/Funambol/ds-server/modules
wget http://www.scalableogo.org/uploads/Funambol/funambol-sogo-1.0.7.s4j

Then, open the /opt/Funambol/ds-server/install.properties file 

vim /opt/Funambol/ds-server/install.properties

and add funambol-sogo-1.0.7 at the end of the "modules-to-install" line.

Install MySQL JDBC driver

Funambol by installation defaults to use the Hypersonic DB engine, but SOGO requires the use of MySQL.

Goto http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.0.html to download the JDBC driver for MySQL. The current version is mysql-connector-java-5.0.8.zip. Download it to /opt. 

cd /opt
unzip mysql-connector-java-5.0.8.zip
mkdir -p /opt/Funambol/tools/mysql/lib
cp mysql-connector-java-5.0.8/mysql-connector-java-5.0.8-bin.jar /opt/Funambol/tools/mysql/lib
rm -rf mysql-connector-java-5.0.8

Edit the /opt/Funambol/ds-server/install.properties file to change the Funambol DB connector to MySQL. 

vim /opt/Funambol/ds-server/install.properties

Comment out the existing jdbc driver for Hypersonic and add: 

# MySQL
# =====
jdbc.classpath=../tools/mysql/lib/mysql-connector-java-5.0.8-bin.jar
jdbc.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/funambol?characterEncoding=UTF-8
jdbc.user=funambol
jdbc.password=yourpassword

Creating MYSQL user and database

To create the Funambol Database, you'll need to perform each of the following steps: 

mysqladmin create funambol --default-character-set=utf8
mysql -e "grant all privileges on funambol.* to funambol@localhost identified by 'yourpassword'"
mysql -e "flush privileges"


  Warning:
You may wish to alter the "funambol" and "yourpassword" information in the grant privileges line above. Be sure to configure it correctly in /opt/Funambol/ds-server/install.properties !


Access MySQL from the local network

To use the MySQL database you will need to run a script to make port 3306 available to Funambol. 

/sbin/e-smith/config setprop mysqld InnoDB enabled
/sbin/e-smith/config setprop mysqld LocalNetworkingOnly no
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/my.cnf
/etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S50mysqld restart

Disable Hypersonic JDBC driver

Edit /opt/Funambol/bin/funambol and change COMED=true to COMED=false somewhere around line 44.

This prevents the start/stop script from trying to start or stop the Hypersonic database, since we’re are now using MySQL.

Optionally you can rm -rf /opt/Funambol/tools/hypersonic to save a bit of disk space.

Install Modules in Funambol

Start the Funambol server using: 

/opt/Funambol/bin/funambol start

Next, install the Funambol SOGo Connector within Funambol server by issuing the following commands : 

cd /opt/Funambol/
./bin/install

Answer 'yes' to all questions.

Auto start Funambol on startup

To make Funambol start automagically, create /etc/init.d/funambol with the following content (and chmod 755 /etc/init.d/funambol afterwards) : 

#! /bin/bash
#
# funambol Start the funambol services
#
NAME="funambol"
FUNAMBOL_HOME=/opt/Funambol/bin
FUNAMBOL_USER=root
case "$1" in
  start)
    echo -ne "Starting $NAME.\n"
    cd $FUNAMBOL_HOME
    /bin/su $FUNAMBOL_USER funambol start
    ;;
  stop)
    echo -ne "Stopping $NAME.\n"
    cd $FUNAMBOL_HOME
    /bin/su $FUNAMBOL_USER funambol stop
    ;;
  *)
    echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/funambol {start|stop}"
    exit 1
    ;;
esac
exit 0

Configuring the Calendar Sync connection

mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-cal.xml
cd /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-cal.xml
touch template-begin
vim sogo-cal.xml
expand-template /opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-cal.xml

Note the $sogod{'DbPassword'} in the scripts below. This pulls in the the database password that SOGO uses to access the MySQL database.

And change the officer parameter: 

    <void property="officer">
     <string>ca/inverse/sogo/security/SOGoOfficer.xml</string>
