SME8.0 Contribs QA
Version 8.0 Contrib testing
This document lists Contribs that have had been tested running under SME 8
Contribs should work if they are perl or php based. Some binary application will work as well.
Test guidelines
Considerations_before_installing advises that Contribs for SME 8 have not yet been released, this is to avoid dev workload diagnosing bugs caused by contribs.
Please don't post sme 8 bugs unless you can replicate the bug with the contrib removed or isolated.
Setup
Create a repo named sme7contribs, which points at the SME7 smecontribs repo
db yum_repositories set sme7contribs repository \ GPGCheck yes \ MirrorList http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/mirrorlist/smecontribs-7 \ Name 'SME 7 - contribs' \ Visible no \ status disabled signal-event yum-modify yum clean all
example :
yum --enablerepo=sme7contribs --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-openvpn-s2s

by Jáder: I have installed it as by howto.
Just had to use "signal-event post-upgrade && signal-event reboot " because just "expand-template /etc/fstab" do not worked.
I found an error (will put on bugzilla): when creating a share with name longer than limit (12 as standard), just returns an generic ERROR and do not say the cause.
Other than that, it appears to be working I was able to copy to, read, del files.

Warning: The contrib allows to specify the TFTP server as "Self". This worked well under SME7 but not under SME8. To get this working under SME8, we had to choose the SME server's IP address to achieve the same result as "self" otherwise the clients cannot find/load from the TFTP server.
We have reported this as bug 6542 for the contrib but with this workaround, the contrib is working well under SME8.

Workarounds
Contribs that sort of work, but need improvement
smeserver-vmware
The contrib introduces a dependency that cannot be resolved. This dependency is not necessary for sme8. Download vmware-server 2.02 and obtain a license key (you need this during installation in vmware-config.pl).
yum install xinetd yum localinstall <path-to--rpm-file>/VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386.rpm
configure vmware:
vmware-config.pl
and set vmware to autostart and reboot:
ln -s ../init.d/vmware /etc/rc7.d/S19vmware signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
Watch the console for a correct start of vmware services. Features like maintenance from external networks, vmware configuration db commands described in the contrib vmware do not work. Use
/etc/init.d/vmware start|stop|restart
to manage the vmware services. If you do not want vmware server to autostart, remove the symbolic link .
No warranties, Happy VM-ing!
smeserver-zarafa
Zarafa - Because of PHP 5.2.10 in SME8b5 WIP there is a problem with the mapi.so module, see bugzilla:5789:
Tested with:
- SME8b5 WIP - zarafa-6.40.0 RC2 - smeserver-zarafa-0.9.0-49.el4.sme
User WebSpace
This contribs work followin the steps described here [3]
but without php interpretation. to enable php for users we need to edit the templated istalled with the package:
/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90e-smithAccess50userdir
and add the following lines:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
in the fragment of code that define "Generic user dir access directive"
after that we expand the modified template and restart the service:
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
sv h /service/httpd-e-smith
i hope that this hint can help unexperienced users, REDTEO

smeserver-roundcube
Works for me as follows:
- install from sme7contribs:
yum enablerepo=sme7contribs install smeserver-roundcube signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
At this point, attempting to open roundcube generates the following error in /var/log/messages:
httpd: PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare quoted_printable_encode() in /opt/roundcube/program/include/rcube_imap.inc on line 2656
- download the latest sources from sourceforge (0.7.1 as of this writing):
- browse to http://sourceforge.net/projects/roundcubemail/ - click the download button - right-click the 'direct link' url in the download page header, and select 'copy link location' - at a shell prompt on the sme server:
wget <paste link location>
- extract the downloaded source (replace "roundcubemail-0.7.1.tar.gz" with the actual filename downloaded in step 2):
tar zxvf roundcubemail-0.7.1.tar.gz
- copy extracted roundcube code on top of the code that was installed by the rpm:
'cp' -rf roundcubemail-0.7.1/* /opt/roundcube
- Drop and re-create all roundcube tables from mysql (If you're updating an existin roundcube installation you'll need to manually figure out which of the commands in /opt/roundcube/SQL/mysql.update.sql)
mysqldump --add-drop-table --no-data roundcube |grep ^DROP |mysql roundcube cd /opt/roundcube mysql roundcube < SQL/mysql.initial.sql
Note: drop all tables using mysqldump courtesy of http://www.thingy-ma-jig.co.uk/comment/7075
Roundcube now opens at http://<my.smeserver.tld>/roundcube
- Configuration changes (for each user):
- login and select "Settings" from the top right
- Folders (do this first)
- Subscribe to the imap folders you want to access in roundcube. Only subscribed folders are available for selection as 'special folders' in the next step.
- Preferences
- Select 'special folders' and set the values you want to use for 'Drafts', 'Sent', 'Junk' and 'Trash'
- 'Identities'
- Verify or create a default identity. Create a signature if you want to have one.
