Mountain Lion Contacts cardDAV server sync problems. about roundcube-carddav HOT 21 OPEN

I get:

I am unable to get synchronization working as well.

OSX 10.8 Server
RoundCube 0.8.1
CardDAV 0.5.1

I am able to get the CardDav settings to recgnize my server. However no contacts are synced to the addressbook. When I attempt to sync manually, I get the following error: An error occurred while synchronizing the CardDAV contacts

from roundcube-carddav.

possibly help section 2 in #36

from roundcube-carddav.

I am also able to get the CardDav settings to recgnize my server. and like nlwrik no contacts are synced to the addressbook. When I attempt to sync manually, I get the following error: An error occurred while synchronizing the CardDAV contacts

anybody successful sync with a mountain lion server???

from roundcube-carddav.

I found a message board where someone had posted a fix for this. I was able to get it running in the end. It involved modifying some code (that I didn't understand) in one of the files. I'll look later and see if I can find it for you.

@mvdbent schum posted the answer above. I was able to make this work following the link he posted. If you are unable to get it working, I'll look back at my config and reference the changes I made that worked.

@niwrik Can you please share your carddav config files, and also the carddav user config (e.g. http://example.com:8080...)

I'm seeing the CardDAV-Server XML-Response is malformed. Synchronization aborted! error as well. My setup is as follows:

• Mac OS X Server 10.8.2
• Roundcube Webmail 0.8.4 (hosted on an Ubuntu Linux box)
• graviox / Roundcube-CardDAV 0.5.1

One note for setup: I had to use http instead of https when configuring the server connection, even though the OS X machine is properly configured to serve https. Trying a secure connection just caused the setup to fail. As soon as I changed to normal http it connected just fine.

I added a self::write_log($e); line to the carddav_addressbook.php file to get a better look at the exception when it gets thrown, and this is what I see:

It looks like carddav_addressbook.php:402 is trying to make a new SimpleXMLElement object by passing an empty string instead of valid XML data.

I tried replacing the PROPFIND line in carddav_backend.php with the three lines from #29, but that has no effect on the problem.

from roundcube-carddav.

Have anyone got this plugin working on Mountain Lion? I've tried the fixes in #29 and #36; however, I still have problems. I still receive the "ardDAV-Server XML-Response is malformed. Synchronization aborted!" error. Thanks so much!

Hello. I stopped using this awhile back and haven't gotten back to it. An OSX update broke roundcude on me (something to do with postgres), so I had to recreate the database using mysql. Prior to that, I was able to sync carddav address book after making the changes to carddav_backend.php. Sorry, but I don't recall the exact lines of code I change (per instructions in the message board). If it helps, here's the code from the file that worked for me:

Thank you niwrik! I'll give this a try. I've been using Kerio Connect for the last several years, but, was considering going the "free" route and using the butil-in services to ML. This is just my home personal email server for family and friends, so, I can be pretty nimble. Thanks so much!

from roundcube-carddav.

has anyone managed to get CardDAV working with Mountain Lion Server (10.8.2) and RoundCube 0.8.5? I can add the server but then on sync it just says:

"an error occurred while synchronizing the CardDave contacts"

any pointers?

from roundcube-carddav.

I have not. I am hoping, at some point, someone smarter than I can make it work and share. Or, the connector is updated to work with ML Server.

from roundcube-carddav.

hey @bryan977 thanks for getting back - glad it's not just me! so any genius out there with a solution? :)

from roundcube-carddav.

Have you tried using another CardDav service like Radicale? There is a repo on Github. I haven't used it with Mountain Lion, but its a pretty lightweight python application that works behind Apache or on its on. I have it working with RoundCube.

from roundcube-carddav.

@hscissors thanks for the pointer - but it would be great if it were possible to get CardDAV working with a default Mountain Lion Server install :)

from roundcube-carddav.

I had a request this morning to get carddav working on roundcube at the office. I hadn't gotten back to this since my earlier post, as I'd never bothered to restore the configuration following my move from postgres to mysql for the roundcube db. Again, I ran into the same problems as above. Luckily, I had made a backup of the working plugin folder, and restored it to my current config. Confirmed working on 10.8.2 - I have no idea which files were modified to make it work, but I can post the folder in .zip format somewhere if anyone wants to try it out in their deployment.

from roundcube-carddav.

I would be interested in that.

@bpwats Send me a message and I'll send you a link. My public e-mail address is now published.

Hello Everyone. I have this running on OSX 10.8.2 Server 2.2.1 with RC 0.8.2. I found the solution here: #36 (about half-way down the page)

In carddav_backend.php replace the following line:

$response = $this->query($this->url, 'PROPFIND');

with this:

from roundcube-carddav.

Hello
You can modify in the carddav_backend.php the auth type.
I had the same problem of XML because the response is empty.
change this line
curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY);
by
curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_DIGEST);
the url : https://xxxxx:8843/addressbooks/users/[username]/addressbook/
For me it's working.
Is it possible to add a DropDownList to configure the server like calendar.
