Install of CalenderServer fails on Ubuntu 10.04
I am extremely new to Ubuntu and linux in general. I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 and followed the steps outlined in several postings. After a little trial and error I was able to set up and access the CalendarServer and configure users by modifying the accounts.xml and caldavd-dev.plist. I could connect via iCal and the two iphones in my network. Since i was able to get it up and running I decided to build a server to host the Calendar Server, afp file sharing, samba and use the server for time Machine backups. Using a pentium 4 box I installed Ubuntu 10.04 server and followed these steps: 1) edit /etc/fstab to enable xattrs by adding the “user_xattr” option. e.g. (all on one line): UUID=8f2bb850-0e8f-4d81-bba5-fb93ef9b9990 / ext4 errors=remount-ro,user_xattr 0 1 after doing the above you need to reboot, or “sudo mount / -o remount” 2) sudo apt-get build-dep postgresql 3) sudo apt-get install python-setuptools python-xattr python-twisted subversion curl 4) svn co http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/trunk CalendarServer 5) cd CalendarServer ; ./run -s when I run ./run -s i get this: Downloading libevent... % Total %Received % Xferd AverageSpeed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:40:24 --:--:-- The previous successful install was revision 6725 and it continued and finished without a hangup. now it is revision 6726 Any ideas as to why it worked without a hitch 4 days ago and now I cant get any further than what you see.
Likely new checkins have broken something.. it's always risky running trunk.. The usual advice here is to pick a revision that works and use that... either something from the released branch. Or just check out and use the revision that worked for you when you where testing. --Guy On 11 Jan 2011, at 16:34, Laurence Popiel wrote:

Looks like one of the externally hosted dependencies is failing to download... will check into it. -dre On Jan 11, 2011, at 8:38 AM, Guy wrote:

Now that I'm able to setup ad run the development version, where can I find documentation on setting up in a small network production environment. I'll have 8 users, three groups and 8 calendars. Does it install differently and point to different config files ? On Tue, Jan 11, 2011 at 12:51 PM, Andre LaBranche <dre@apple.com> wrote:

It's been a while since the last release, so trunk is pretty different from the last 'stable' release. It's generally not recommended to run trunk code in a production environment, or if you do, make sure to test it thoroughly for your use cases. One reason that you may wish to avoid trunk code is that long-term problems can crop up, e.g. when upgrading to the next major version, we only support upgrades from older releases and not necessarily development versions. I would probably recommend testing the most recent release to see if it does the job for you. Regarding how to actually deploy it on the production host, the 'run' script has an 'install' method that can install the various resources in the standard locations (e.g. /usr/local/...), however things like process lifecycle management are left up to the administrator. I would recommend that you do all the testing of your target release (or dev code if you wish) on a non-production host, including the installation using run script, and also whatever scripts you wish to use to start and stop the service, etc. There is not a great deal of documentation about our server outside of the PDF for iCal Server, however this is not targeted at the open source distribution, but rather the integrated distribution that is part of Mac OS X Server. The documentation (in a somewhat tattered state, unfortunately) for the open source distribution is all located here: http://trac.calendarserver.org/ Hope this helps, -dre On Jan 12, 2011, at 1:36 PM, Laurence Popiel wrote:

OK here goes. I took your advise about using a stable release. Wiped my test box and started over with a fresh install of 10.04 server.

Yes. Several times. When I first started looking into this and Linux after a little trial and error and much research I did get the server running, could connect via iCal and two iPhones. This was on my test box. Now I'm building abox that host the CalendarServer, afp file sharing and a partition for Time Machine backups. I have yet to be able to recreate a working CalendarServer. I've used trunk and it appears ro install and latch the server but I cannot connect to any calendars or even see the catalog. It was suggested that I use the last stable release to put in to use with the clients that use it because it is more stable than trunk. Let me also that I am a total Jeanie to Linux.

Likely new checkins have broken something.. it's always risky running trunk..
The usual advice here is to pick a revision that works and use that... either something from the released branch. Or just check out and use the revision that worked for you when you where testing.

I am extremely new to Ubuntu and linux in general. I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 and followed the steps outlined in several postings. After a little trial and error I was able to set up and access the CalendarServer and configure users by modifying the accounts.xml and caldavd-dev.plist. I could connect via iCal and the two iphones in my network. Since i was able to get it up and running I decided to build a server to host the Calendar Server, afp file sharing, samba and use the server for time Machine backups.
Using a pentium 4 box I installed Ubuntu 10.04 server and followed these steps: 1) edit /etc/fstab to enable xattrs by adding the “user_xattr” option.
e.g. (all on one line):
UUID=8f2bb850-0e8f-4d81-bba5-fb93ef9b9990 / ext4 errors=remount-ro,user_xattr 0 1
after doing the above you need to reboot, or “sudo mount / -o remount”
2) sudo apt-get build-dep postgresql
3) sudo apt-get install python-setuptools python-xattr python-twisted subversion curl
4) svn co http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/trunk CalendarServer
5) cd CalendarServer ; ./run -s
when I run ./run -s i get this:
Downloading libevent...

The previous successful install was revision 6725 and it continued and finished without a hangup.
now it is revision 6726
Any ideas as to why it worked without a hitch 4 days ago and now I cant get any further than what you see.

I feel like I'm becoming a bit of a pain as my very limited knowledge and experience with this prevents me from digging deep enough to figure out the problem.
Not affiliated with Apple in any way, nor have I ever used CalendarServer (my desire to do so has waned since joining this list). But in an attempt to help a newcomer to Linux and the command line: - what do you think 'couldn't resolve host "internap.dl.sourceforge.net"' might mean? - what happens when you paste "internap.dl.sourceforge.net" into your web-browser's address bar? - what does `grep -Ri -e internap -e sourceforge .` show? - what does `grep -Ri -e internap -e sourceforge . -C 3` show?
