> My guess is your caldavd plist settings for LDAP don't match your LDAP server settings. See this page for an example DirectoryService plist section: To clarify: I can see my locations as defined in LDAP in both the web interface and with the calendarserver_manage_principals. The only difference is (AFAIK), that I'm not able to lookup the locations by typing in the locations field of an event in the Apple iCal client. Tobias

Locations & resources in LDAP in version 3.2?
by Tobias Balle-Petersen 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

Hello.... I'm running caldavd v. 3.2 as packaged on Debian Wheezy. I get my users from LDAP. I would also like to get my locations and resources from LDAP. However, when I do a search for, say, locations, with calendarserver_manage_principals I see no traffic to the LDAP server? I only seem to be able to add locations to the system by defining them in resources.xml. How are resources and locations to be configured for LDAP? I see the configuration of this in caldavd.plist has changed quite a lot since version 2.* Regards, Tobias Balle-Petersen -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Locations---resources-in-LDAP-in-version-3.2--tp34150… Sent from the Calendar Server - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Unhandled error in XML directory service

Hi! I set up a CalendarServer instance (version 4.1.1-dev) with an XML directory service configured this way: caldav.plist snippet: <key>DirectoryService</key> <dict> <key>type</key> <string>twistedcaldav.directory.xmlfile.XMLDirectoryService</string> <key>params</key> <dict> <key>xmlFile</key> <string>accounts.xml</string> </dict> </dict> accounts.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE accounts SYSTEM "accounts.dtd"> <accounts realm="virutass.net"> <user> <uid>admin</uid> <password>XXXX</password> <name>Super User</name> </user> </accounts> When CalendarServer starts, I get the following error: 2012-08-28 20:00:24+0200 [-] [twistedcaldav.directory.xmlfile.XMLDirectoryService#info] Directory service <XMLDirectoryService 'virutass.net': FilePath('/etc/service/calendar/accounts.xml')> has no GUID; generating service GUID from realm name. 2012-08-28 20:00:24+0200 [-] *** record: <XMLDirectoryRecord[users(a)B5B1BE7C-3638-5621-BE55-1C2E9E8D8FC0(virutass.net)] None(admin) 'Super User' @ None/#> 2012-08-28 20:00:24+0200 [-] Unhandled error in Deferred: 2012-08-28 20:00:24+0200 [-] Unhandled Error Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/calendarserver/tools/util.py", line 143, in getDirectory directory = BaseDirectoryService(config.DirectoryService.params) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twistedcaldav/directory/xmlfile.py", line 123, in __init__ self._accounts() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twistedcaldav/directory/xmlfile.py", line 180, in _accounts record.recordType) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 1187, in unwindGenerator return _inlineCallbacks(None, gen, Deferred()) --- <exception caught here> --- File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 1045, in _inlineCallbacks result = g.send(result) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twistedcaldav/directory/augment.py", line 139, in getAugmentRecord "%s-%s*" % (recordType, uid[0:2]), exceptions.TypeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__' The problem goes away by adding a ``guid`` element under ``<user>``. Is this the expected behaviour -- that the ``guid`` child of ``user`` is mandatory? In case it is, is it worth opening a Trac ticket? C

Sharing cardDAV entries with other users?
by tobiasbp 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

I'm running calendarserver 3.2 on Debian Wheezy. I can set up the Address Book application on my OS X clients to use cardDAV on the server. Is it possible to share entries in the address book between users? I would love to have a shared address book for all users. Thanks, Tobias

backing up calendar server
by Scott Trevithick 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Hello folks, I am setting up a calendar server on debian for an org with about 40 users. Is there any documentation on how to do backups and restores of the calendar server's data. I can easily enough make copies of /var/spool/caldavd, but I'm wondering if there is more to it than that to do a proper restore. thanks, Scott

LDAP configuration problem
by nibor 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Hello, I recently setup calendarserver 3.2 ( http://ubuntu.mirror.cambrium.nl/ubuntu//pool/universe/c/calendarserver/cal… ). My goal is to configure it with LDAP support. In the configuration file I put every settings needed. I can access to the users and groups lists with calendarserver_manage_principals without any problem. My problem start when I want to access to my http://localhost:8008/calendars/users/robin page, it ask me login/password. If I use a login/password correct, I have nothing logged in the error file, but nothing append in the browser, it still ask me for login/pasword. If I use a bad login/password, in error.log I can see that the daemon doesn't find the bad uid. If something could give me a clue, or if someone had already LDAP logins problems please let me know. Thanks for reading, Robin

Recommended version?
by Carlos Valiente 25 Aug '12

25 Aug '12

Hi! I'd like to run CalendarServer for personal usage. The host system would be Ubuntu 12.04. I'm comfortable with Python and Twisted programming, and if I come across any bug, I'd be happy to contribute back. Which version do you think would be better for me to try: * tags/release/CalendarServer-4.1 * tags/release/CalendarServer-3.3 * branches/release/CalendarServer-4.1.1-dev * trunk Thanks, Carlos

Re: [CalendarServer-users] Users in LDAP: restrictEnabledRecords not working?

Actually, the LDAP implementation for the restrictToGroup feature is pretty broken. I just checked in a fix: https://trac.calendarserver.org/changeset/9741/CalendarServer/trunk On Aug 23, 2012, at 8:43 AM, Morgen Sagen <morgen(a)apple.com> wrote: > This looks like a bug.

If you want to fix ldapdirectory.py by hand you could add "nestedGroups = []" just above the "if len(result) == 1" line in the restrictedGUIDs( ) method, and make sure the new line is at the same indention as the "if" statement.

This did not resolve the problem on Debian Wheezy with calendarserver 3.2. Having implemented the fix. I get no errors when listing my users like I did before, but users NOT in the group I want to restrict to are still listed. Tobias

This looks like a bug. The LDAP server we test against has an LDAP attribute specifically for nested groups, so we've not run into this problem. If you want to fix ldapdirectory.py by hand you could add "nestedGroups = []" just above the "if len(result) == 1" line in the restrictedGUIDs( ) method, and make sure the new line is at the same indention as the "if" statement.
