10.5 OD server with new 10.6 iCal server

Hi Have an OD 10.5.8 server and have just got a mac mini 10.6.2 server to use strictly as an iCal server.
iCal needs account names obviously so is it as simple as joining the mini to the OD and it picking up the names from there?
Because 10.5 uses the old calendar system where you have to select the server in WGM will this have a negative impact? Shall I just leave it not checked?
Cheers

Hi Holger
I've got it sorted. Here is what I noticed and did as a result.
There is no need to add group "com.apple.access_mail" to every user who wishes to have access to Mail service. Something has gone inherently wrong in the 10.5.8 OD master. I re-installed the 10.5.8 OD a number of times (due to bad media during installation), and re-input the user accounts one-by-one, WITHOUT restoring the previous archived user data. This step is critical, because it seems that archiving will also archive the bad data, and restoring to a new installation of OD master should mean you still have a bad OD master.
Re-install the other servers (10.6.2) from scratch. During the Server Setup Assistant stage, at the "Users and Groups" screen, choose "Connect to another server". Specify the 10.5.8 OD master. In the next screen "Directory Service", choose "Set up an Open Directory master".
You can also set up iCal service during this stage, and because of the above settings, iCal is automatically, correctly configured.
At the end of this configuration, the new server will use both 10.5.8's and the local's OD master for users and groups authentication and contacts. Running iCal web service should now work.
One thing I learned from all these days of trail and error is that we must plan the set up prior to performing any installation. Plan which machine will run which services. Of course the OD master and DNS should be already running correctly.
Once the installation and configuration is done, don't attempt to make any dramatic changes to it (such as demoting the OD master to local, and re-promote it to master). Doing so will definitely cause something to break, no matter it is 10.5.8 or 10.6.2.
Also if something *weird* happens (weird things are those contradicting the Apple docs), always attempt to perform a clean install of the OS. Don't waste time to try to figure out why the errors and problems happened!
Plan, plan, plan!

  • Existing iCal calenders syncing with new Google Calendar/iCal account

    I have been using iCal now for awhile but only recently started using Google Calendars (once I found out they could both be synced together). Anyway, I understand how to set up the sync, it's very simple. But, I have three calendars for personal, school, and work already in iCal that are in the default group profile that iCal starts with of "calendars".
    Anyway, when you create a new account in iCal to set up the syncing, it creates a whole new calendar group for your profile. I had never had an "account" before, so all my three main calendars are separate from this new account. Is there anyway to move or duplicate those calendars into my new calendar group so that I can have one flowing set of synced information between google and iCal without manually retyping all of the information myself? I have tried dragging the calendars down into the other group and all you can do is reorder them within the group they're already in. Even a duplication would work, if that is possible (to duplicate a whole calendar).
    Any insight from anyone would be incredibly helpful.
    Thanks a ton,
    Zac

  • I can't see a Base URL for shared Calendars with new Mobile Me iCal

    Hi,
    I have a family .Mac membership and my events are being organised by a Windows user (with one of my other accounts) using the Mobile Me Web site. No other problems accept this.
    With the previous iCal on my Mac when I shared a Calendar I was always shown the Base URL which anyone with a web browser could access. With the new iCal on Mobile Me is a simple URL still an option? If so how can I find it?
    I don't wont subscribers to have to download a file or add the calendar, I just want them to click a URL and view the week's events, Read only, as with the previous iCal on my Mac.
    The old URL system does not work for the new iCal on Mobile Me I tried it http://ical.me.com/username/Calendar
    Any Tips will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Athena

    Do you have enabled auto-fill for the location bar?
    You can check the pref browser.urlbar.autoFill on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    You can also make the protocol visible.
    You can set the pref <b>browser.urlbar.trimURLs</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page to see the http: protocol.
    You can set the pref <b>browser.urlbar.formatting.enabled</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the highlighting of the domain and see the full URL more clearly.

    Hello Ketil,
    Good Day...
    Seems to be the Issue is Syncing emails, now I would recommend you to Remove and Add the Account and try and check if the emails are getting synced automatically.
    Hope this is with Single User. If it is with Multiple Users then we need to check the permissions assigned.

    Hello b.krushel,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    Any number of things could cause this issue, so I would recommend this article named iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999.
    These sections in particular:
    General Troubleshooting
    Make sure there are no current issues listed on the System Status that affect iCloud Calendar. The System Status is located on the iCloud Support webpage.
    Make sure you have fully enabled iCloud Calendar for the client you are using (for more setup and troubleshooting information on iOS, OS X, Windows and iCloud.com, see the additional details below).
    Check to see if the issue you are seeing is covered in iCloud Help. To search iCloud Help, visit help.apple.com/icloud.
    Check your settings and preferences as something may not be set up correctly. For example, having incorrect date and time settings can cause issues which are easily resolved by entering the appropriate settings.
    Troubleshooting Calendar on OS X Mountain Lion (iCal on OS X Lion)Note: For instructions on setting up iCloud Calendar with Calendar or iCal on your Mac, see iCloud Setup.If you are having trouble with Calendar or iCal on a Mac and you are using iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
    Make sure you are using OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later. Click here for help verifying the version of OS X you are using.
    Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in iCal. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
    Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Preference pane in System Preferences. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on a Mac.
    Make sure you enter and update calendar information in the iCloud section of Calendar or iCal. Only calendars and events in the iCloud section of the Calendar or iCal Calendar list will be pushed to iCloud. Both Calendar and iCal for the Mac support the display of and interaction with multiple accounts and datastores, for example, iCloud, On My Mac, Exchange, Google, and so on. This makes it easy to create or modify events or calendars in a section of  Calendar or iCal that may not be updating iCloud. Learn more about moving local calendars to iCloud.
    In some cases, you may find that you have data duplicated in both the local On My Mac and the iCloud sections of Calendar or iCal. Learn more about resolving this issue.
    You can make the iCloud calendar your default calendar for all new events. In Calendar on OS X Mountain Lion, choose Calendar > Preferences > General, or in OS X Lion, choose iCal > Preferences > Generaland under the Default Calendar heading, select one of the Calendars under the iCloud heading. Close the Preferences window to save this change.
    If recent changes simply don't appear, try forcing Calendar or iCal to refresh by selecting Refresh All from theCalendar menu.
    Make sure your account was successfully created in Calendar on your Mac (or iCal). After upgrading to iCloud Calendar, you may need to quit and reopen Calendar (or iCal). To confirm your account is configured correctly in iCal:
    Open Calendar (or iCal).
    Open Calendar (or iCal) Preferences.
    Click Accounts. You should see an account with your iCloud member name entered.
    Turn iCloud Calendars off and back on
    Quit Calendar (or iCal).
    Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences > iCloud.
    Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences and wait about a minute.
    Open System Preferences and choose iCloud.
    Replace the checkmark next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences.
    Open Calendar (or iCal) and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Can create new cache with new cache config xml to existing cache server?

    Hi,
    I have a question regarding coherence cache.
    currently there is coherence cache server running with its own cache config file.
    Can I create another cache with new cache config file?
    If so, do I need add my own cache config file and pof file to the server?
    so during cache server start up, it can load cache config and pof config file?
    Thanks for the help.
    Regards
    Julia

    Yes, when you want to load your own cache configuration you can use something like
    export CLASSPATH=coherence.jar
    java -Xms512m -Xmx512m -Dtangosol.coherence.cacheconfig=my-cache-config.xml com.tangosol.net.DefaultCacheServerby using the system parameter tangosol.coherence.cacheconfig you can add your own cache configuration. Note that
    the POF configuration is loaded when you are referring to it in your cache configuration.

    Please check with new version of TFTPD 32 server. The error may be due to older version of TFPT server, the new version available solved this error. Files are getting uploaded with no issues.
    1. Download tftpd32b.zip from:
    http://tftpd32.jounin.net/tftpd32_download.html
    2. Copy the tftpd32b.zip file into an empty directory and extract it.
    3. Copy the file you want to transver into the directory containing tftpd32.exe.
    4. Run tftpd32.exe from that directory. The "Base Directory" field should show the path to the directory containing the file you want to transfer.
    At this point, the tftpserver is ready to begin serving files. As devices request files, the main tftpd32 window will log the requests.

  • Xfdf and pdf works in Adobe Reader 6, but not with new versions 7, 8, X

    I have a xfdf file which is created by querying a SQL data base and contains data for a pdf form; it works with Adobe Reader 6, but does not work with new versions of Adobe Readers (7, 8, 9 and X).
    It is an intranet site running IIS 6.0 in Windows Server 2003 Web Edition SP2 with Adobe 6 installed and client systems include XPSP2, XPSP3, Vista, Windows 7 with different versions of IE, Firefox.
    With new versions of Adobe Reader, click on the hyperlink launched the pdf form in a browser window without data; below is the link:
            // create shipping slip hyperlink
            string strLtrSlipUrl = "~/Archive/LtrShipSlip.pdf#FDF=" + lblWO.Text + "LtrShipSlip" + ".xfdf";
            HyperLink hlLtrShipPdf = new HyperLink();
            hlLtrShipPdf.Text = "Ltr Shipping Slip";
            hlLtrShipPdf.NavigateUrl = strLtrSlipUrl;
            hlLtrShipPdf.Target = "_blank";
            pnlLtrShipSlip.Controls.Add(hlLtrShipPdf);
    I have installed new versions of Adobe Reader in the Web server (to match what the clients are using), but results are the same – blank pdf.
    I uninstalled the new versions and installed version 6 and the pdf and xfdf worked happily together, but we need new versions of Adobe Reader in the client computers.
    Thanks for helps and suggestions – I have read articles about using iTextSharp to create pdf documents from .NET apps, but that would be my last choice.

    Adobe Reader 9 can't save the old FDA forms. FDA must update their forms.

  • Can we add new condition in old PO with new pricing schema

    We have created new pricing schema for addition of new condition type at header level on
    25/11/2010 in client server but the problem is for old purchase order client want new condition
    on header condition tab.It is obvious that in old po on analysis tab it shows old pricing schema.
    Is there any solution to get new condition in old Purchase order????
    It means we can add new condition in old po???
    Regards
    Jyoti Thakur

    Jyoti,
    Let me know the basic Price Condition if its PB00 or PBXX.
    Let me know how you have called the pricing schema. if you had attached it with document type and you have changed the document type, you will be required to create new PO with new doc type.
    If you have taken Vendor Schema group as a criteria, then you will be required to end the validity of old pricing conditions in condition table and need to activate new conditions on this date.
    Check for other basic keys like Purchasing Organization as well.
    Let me know if you have any existing Source List or QA for the vendor too.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Graphite Airport with new MacBooks and MacBook Pros

    We have a mobile lab that is using some old dual USB iBooks with a graphite airport base station. The iBooks are connecting to the base station without a problem and getting on the internet. In the next room over, a teacher with a MacBook is trying to get online with the same base station. The MacBook can see the Airport, but it will not receive an IP via DHCP. I've taken my own MacBook Pro over to the base station as well and the airport icon blinks on and off for my own machine.
    Is this a compatibility issue with the Intel based laptops with airport extreme trying to connect to an old graphite base station?

    If you believe the problem might be in the network settings, I am happy to let you compare yours to my working ones.
    When the MacBook is connected to the Graphite base station's network:
    System Preferences > Network > Show: AirPort > TCP/IP
    . Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    . IP Address: 10.0.1.x (provided by the base station as DHCP server)
    . Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 (provided by the base station as DHCP server)
    . Router: 10.0.1.1 (provided by the base station as DHCP server)
    . DHCP Client ID: (blank)
    . DNS Servers: (blank)
    . IPv6 Address: (string of hexadecimals)(self-assigned by MacBook)
    System Preferences > Network > Show: AirPort > TCP/IP > Configure IPv6
    . Configure IPv6: Automatically
    . IPv6 Address: (string of hexadecimals)(assigned by MacBook)
    . Router: (blank)
    System Preferences > Network > Show: AirPort > PPPoE
    . (everything unchecked)
    System Preferences > Network > Show: AirPort > Proxies
    . Configure Proxies: Manually
    . Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV) checked
    . (everything else unchecked)
    System Preferences > Network > Show: Network Port Configurations
    . AirPort is third on the list and checked.
    . (FireWire and Ethernet are the first two.)
    . (I currently have no FireWire or Ethernet connection.)
    System Preferences > Network > Show: Network Status
    . "AirPort is connected to the network (name). You are connected to the Internet via Airport."
    In AirPort Admin Utility, version 4.2:
    (Select base station) > Configure > Network
    . Distribute IP Addresses (checked)
    . AirPort client computers: Share a single IP address (using DHCP and NAT) (selected)
    . (everything else unselected)
    Please note that the AirPort Utility that comes with new MacBooks cannot configure a Graphite base station.
    I can't think of anything else that would be relevant to whether the base station supplies an IP address to a wirelessly connected MacBook, but you are welcome to ask about other settings.
    If the problem with the MacBook Pro is in the network settings and not a result of interference, the only thing I can think of is a possible DHCP conflict. Please make sure "Enable AirPort to Ethernet bridging" is turned off in AirPort Admin Utility.

    Please tell me .How to alert with new window when message is comming like MSN?

    Why is it the first think everyone wants to do in JSP is write a chat application?
    Not really an easy way to do this, as HTTP is a "pull" model. You send a request, the server sends a response. The server can't send anything unless you ask for it. That kindof puts a damper on things like instant messaging.
    A couple of workarounds
    1 - refresh the page every once in a while to check for new messages. An easy solution but nowhere near optimal.

  • Reinstall MI Client with new device ID

    Hi guys,
    In MI 7.0 I removed a device ID and uninstalled the client.
    After reinstallation, I created same user locally and after first sync I received a new device ID.
    Then I assigned the xAPPL to the device ID and run new sync.
    After sucessfully instalation the old device ID is assigned back to the device.
    Therefore I cannot perform any sync since the old device ID has been removed from the server.
    Any tips?
    Regards,

    Hi Oliver,
    As feedback I found the cause of the problem. Since I'm installing the pilot client in a Windows Vista laptop, program files were installed in:
    C:/Program Files/SAP Mobile Infrastructure
    I don't know why, when you start the application, these files are
    transfered to:
    C:\Users\<my user>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\SAP Mobile Infrastructure
    All time I was uninstalling the MI client, only the C:\Program Files\SAP Mobile Infrastructure were being deleted, but not the other route.
    After uninstalling the application I manually deleted the other route.
    With new installation, the aplication received a new device ID and it was not assigned automatically to the old one.
    Best regards,
    Renato
