Dependencies

Requirements

Installation

THIS IS A BETA VERSION USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

ActiveSync support does not work out of the box. To add support of ActiveSync take the following steps (Step 1 to 5 can be done with modules/sync/z-push2/install.sh too):

1. Download z-push from http://zarafa-deutschland.de/z-push-download/final/2.0/. We used version 2.0.7 (But it's probably best to take the latest stable 2.0.x version of z-push).

2. Unpack the archive and put it in the "modules" directory of Group-Office.

3. rename the folder to "z-push2"

4. Copy the folder backend/go/ from modules/sync/z-push2/ to modules/z-push2/backend/

5. Copy config.php from modules/sync/z-push2/ to modules/z-push2/

6. Now, you must configure Apache to redirect the URL 'Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync' to the index.php file in the modules/z-push2/ directory.
This can be done by adding the line Alias /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync /path/to/groupoffice/modules/z-push2/index.php
Don't use a symlink, this won't work.

7. Restart apache2 and configure your mobile device with the servername, username and password and you should be in sync!

IMPORTANT NOTE: remember to replace the z-push files again when you are upgrading Group-Office!

CGI mode By default z-push only works when PHP is loaded as an Apache module. If you use PHP in CGI mode you'll have to follow this workaround:

Uninstall

Remove the z-push 2 folder from the modules directory of Group-Office.
