Funambol
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.

json-simple
cd /opt/Funambol/tools/tomcat/lib/ wget http://json-simple.googlecode.com/files/json_simple.jar
Download & Configure 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/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"
Reconfigure MySQL for InnoDB and access from the local network
Funambol uses MySQL wit the InnoDB engine and uses networking for access.
/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
vim /etc/init.d/funambol
with the following content:
#! /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
complete with
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/funambol
SOGO Sync Sources
The sync sources as described in the SOGO Installation Guide were created by means of the Funambol Admin interface (remote from a PC). The files that were created were used a the source of the templates we are creating below. The templates allow us to pull in the database password for SOGO from the SOGO installation.
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
Note the $sogod{'DbPassword'} in the scripts below. This pulls in the the database password that SOGO uses to access the MySQL database.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <java version="1.5.0_10" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder"> <object class="ca.inverse.sogo.engine.source.SOGoSyncSource"> <void property="databasePassword"> <string>{$sogod{'DbPassword'}}</string> </void> <void property="databaseURL"> <string>jdbc:mysql://localhost/sogo</string> </void> <void property="databaseUsername"> <string>sogo</string> </void> <void property="info"> <object class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.SyncSourceInfo"> <void property="supportedTypes"> <array class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.ContentType" length="1"> <void index="0"> <object class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.ContentType"> <void property="type"> <string>text/x-vevent</string> </void> <void property="version"> <string>1</string> </void> </object> </void> </array> </void> </object> </void> <void property="name"> <string>sogo-cal</string> </void> <void property="sourceURI"> <string>sogo-cal</string> </void> </object> </java>
And don't forget to:
expand-template /opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-cal.xml
Configuring the Address Book Sync connection
mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-card.xml cd /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-card.xml touch template-begin vim sogo-card.xml
Insert the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <java version="1.5.0_10" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder"> <object class="ca.inverse.sogo.engine.source.SOGoSyncSource"> <void property="databasePassword"> <string>{$sogod{'DbPassword'}}</string> </void> <void property="databaseURL"> <string>jdbc:mysql://localhost/sogo</string> </void> <void property="databaseUsername"> <string>sogo</string> </void> <void property="info"> <object class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.SyncSourceInfo"> <void property="supportedTypes"> <array class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.ContentType" length="1"> <void index="0"> <object class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.ContentType"> <void property="type"> <string>text/x-vcard</string> </void> <void property="version"> <string>1</string> </void> </object> </void> </array> </void> </object> </void> <void property="name"> <string>sogo-card</string> </void> <void property="sourceURI"> <string>sogo-card</string> </void> </object> </java>
And
expand-template /opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-card.xml
Configuring the Todo List Sync connection
mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-todo.xml cd /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/Funambol/config/sogo/sogo/sogo/sogo-todo.xml touch template-begin vim sogo-todo.xml
Insert the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <java version="1.5.0_10" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder"> <object class="ca.inverse.sogo.engine.source.SOGoSyncSource"> <void property="databasePassword"> <string>{$sogod{'DbPassword'}}</string> </void> <void property="databaseURL"> <string>jdbc:mysql://localhost/sogo</string> </void> <void property="databaseUsername"> <string>sogo</string> </void> <void property="info"> <object class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.SyncSourceInfo"> <void property="supportedTypes"> <array class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.ContentType" length="1"> <void index="0"> <object class="com.funambol.framework.engine.source.ContentType"> <void property="type"> <string>text/x-vtodo</string> </void> <void property="version"> <string>1</string> </void> </object> </void> </array> </void> </object> </void> <void property="name"> <string>sogo-todo</string> </void> <void property="sourceURI"> <string>sogo-todo</string> </void> </object> </java>
