AutoUpdate GroupWise Client

I am trying to get the AutoUpdate feature to work for our GroupWise System but I am having troubles.
I setup a SuSE HTML server and have copied the WIN32 directory to the site. I can browse all of the files like the setup says to.
Where do I get the seupip.exe file and the copyip.exe files? or do I even need those files?
I want to have the users login into their Groupwise clients / get prompted to update and then update the client from the web server.
Our GroupWise server is a SuSE 11 box.
Just wondering,
Ken

Have a look on the server at
/opt/novell/groupwise/agents/data/client/setup/win32
and additional in the admin documentation, chapter 69.

Uninstall groupwise client

anyone know how to uninstall the groupwise client 7 from a workstation in silent mode? Right now I use zenworks to run
MsiExec.exe /I{CBA40CBC-05A3-418D-84F6-E891AC48BED3}
but this prompts me with questions. so i run /qn on the end of the string and of course its silent but still doesn't install because those questions are still not being answered!

Wildt,
have you tried MsiExec.exe /X{CBA40CBC-05A3-418D-84F6-E891AC48BED3}

GroupWise client reports that there is no Default Mail Clien

Installation of GroupWise client reports that there is no default mail client. On clicking OK the next error: "The 'MAPI Session Handle' of the Novell GroupWise 'Object Request Broker' could not be accessed. The address book cannot run.
In our company we use GroupWise 7 on a mix of Windows XP Pro and A few Windows 7 Pro machines. On all machines where the GroupWise 7 client with hot patch 4 (HP4) was installed everything works fine along with other installed applications with a specific mention of MS Office 2003 or even MS Office 2010.
This morning (August 9, 2011) a new Windows 7 machine was deployed to a new Database Administrator. It was this machine that had these errors. The machine was deployed from a disk image.
The problem was baffling because we never experienced this problem on the other Windows 7 machines and un-installing and re-installing GroupWise even with Administrator privileges did not solve the problem.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, the bottom line is this: Don't trust an installation made by someone else even if they are Database Administrators! (Our IT dept consists of an IT Operations section and a Developers Section).
The installation of Microsoft Office by the IT Operations crew never includes the Microsoft office OutLook client. This installation had it included and that was what was causing the whole problem.
The Solution: Simply use the Microsoft Office installation to remove the Microsoft Office Outlook client and the problem went away immediately. We did not have to remove and re-install GroupWise after that was done.
Hope this helps someone.

Messages sent from GroupWise client appear in sender Mailbox

Hello All,
When using GroupWise object API to enumerate messages in the Mailbox folder, I found that messages that appear in the Sent Items folder are also returned in the Messages collection of the Mailbox folder. Although, when using GroupWise client UI, they cannot be seen in Mailbox folder.
I tried properties like Hidden to see if the messages are hidden, but this flag is false for those messages. I also tried to use the EnclosingFolders collection which returns the folder messages are contained in, but that too returns Mailbox. The messages that can be seen in Sent Items from the GroupWise client UI also have the EnclosingFolders property set to "Mailbox".
How do we correctly filter out messages to replicate the view that we get in GroupWise client UI?
Some more information, I have enabled Retention on this particular mailbox, if that makes any difference.
This is my first encounter with GroupWise servers and these behaviors don't make sense to me. If anyone can shed some light into these areas I would be grateful to them.
Regards,
Saju

Hello Preston,
Thanks for the explanation. Looks like the BoxType property is the key to filter out unwanted messages.
Regards,
Saju

The GWClient, by default, filters out the sent items when
showing the Mailbox folder. You can change the properties to
show the sent items.
You will need to handle the filtering on your side.

Different user information: Console One Vs. GroupWise Client

Hi!
I changed user properties on ConsoleOne, but when typing username in
GroupWise Client it shows the older information.
I have synchronized user, po and domain a couple of times but didn't work.
I have disassociated gwuser from nds and associated again but didn't work
too.
How can I force that update?
This user is on a secondary domain.
GroupWise 7.01
Thankyou in advance.
FM

I did that. It's very fast.
Id didn't solved the problem. I did that on the PO and DOMAIN of user
(secondary) and on mine PO and DOMAIN (primary).
Any other IDEA?
May I do a Top Down Rebuild?
Thankyou!

Can I setup groupwise client to use alternate outgoing email server?

hello,
our gateway email server is having problems sending out. Can I configure
groupwise client to send out directly to ATT email servers instead of our
gateway?
ATT is smtp.att.yahoo.com but requires login/password and SSL. it has to
be set to run on port 465.
Thanks,

Only if you set up a separate POP3 or IMAP4 account in your GW client.
As for your problems with GW. Please ask in the GroupWise groups. Most GW
problems are easily fixed.

Upgrade groupwise client installs no extra languages

Hi,
I've created a package that distributes the msi's to install the groupwise 2012 sp2 client. The groupwise client has to be installed with some extra languages. All our users have groupwise 2012 sp1 client installed. So the distribution of the package is a upgrade. All is going fine, but when the user starts the groupwise client, no extra languages are installed. When I distribute the groupwise 2012 sp2 client on a machine with no previous groupwise installation, it installs all the languages which I defined in the mst.
Does someone have an idea on how to distribute the groupwise client with the extra languages?
The distribution method is still ZEN7. But I think it's mainly the msi installation that is the issue here. But is there someone who has had this issue and resolved it?
Many thanks in advance.

The upgrade installation can't change the options I'm afraid. You will
have to uninstall the old version first.

GroupWise Client Font Size

Greetings
Currently I cant see any way to increase the font size used in GroupWise.
If this is not possible currently, would it be possible to inrease the
fontsize via a C3PO ??
In particular, I am more interested in the font size of details displayed
in the mailbox , i.e , "From" and "Subject" , "date" ext..
Or just being able to increase the overall font size would be nice.
Thanks in advance.

The basic GroupWise client fonts are based on the system font. If you
search the support TIDs you will find comments regarding changing
some of the form fonts, but there is no overall solutions.

Groupwise Client extremely slow moving between folders

Hi,
We're experiencing a very unusual issue with a single user where switching between folders can take up to 30 seconds, usually no less than 25 seconds. This problem only occurs in the Groupwise 2012 Windows client (12.0.2), but we experienced the exact same problem with the same user last year at this time with an earlier version of the 2012 client. What is strange is that not only is this the only user experiencing the problem, but there is no issue when accessing the account via web access or the Groupwise 8 Linux client. Last year we opened an SR with Novell for this problem but they were unable to resolve the issue and the only solution we came up with was to create a new account for the user and migrate all her email over. This was less than ideal, but the problem had dragged on for a month and we could not come up with a better solution.
It appears that the problem emerges when many hundreds of emails get filed, probably at least 2,000 items on a single day in this most recent case. After that, the client experiences this slow down on any computer, not just the user's computer.
I would appreciate any insight that would shed light on this problem.
Thank you.

Wrong forum! Apologies. Will post to the correct forum.

GroupWise Client 2012 SP2 & Windows 8.1 64bit & addressbook

Hello.
On one Win 8.1 Prof. 64bit worksation I've got several problem with GW Client 2012 SP2 Build 115186.
Under Tools -> Options -> Security I've error messages from WMS "No version of serviceprovider of the personal Groupwse addressbook available (Sorry for that worse translation, the german version is installed).
The addressbook don't have access to the personal and the Systemaddressbook
Some HTML-messages don't work (Page not found)
Links in E-Mails don't work (No application found)
On the machine also MSO 2010 Prof. 32bit is installed (Outlook included)
I suppose,that the WMS isn't installed on the machine. Reparing the programs not solved the problem.
Any ideas to solve the failures?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Best regards.

Some basics.
1. Under no circumstances should wms.exe from groupwise be installed on
a machine that has Outlok installed. Sometimes this can happen
nevertheless, and cause havoc to both programs.
2. If you install Outlook and Groupwise on the same machine, Outlook has
to be installed first.
This, however should have no influence on your HTML issues. Can you give
more details?

Groupwise client is reporting 1 unread email when all are read

Hi Folks,
I have a rather strange problem that I'm hoping to find a solution to. I
have one user who's client is reporting that there is an unread email in
her inbox when all have been read. In fact, she has either deleted or
moved all mail out of her inbox to either a cabinet directory or an
archive. I had her log in at another workstation and the issue followed
her. I have run both an analyze/fix with all the options checked, and a
structural rebuild on her user database, and found no problems.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kris

Do an "Advanced Find" with filter options "Item Status" "does not include"
"Read".
Now you should see any unread Item. If it's only one Item, it must be this
one you see in the Home View. Just delete it or move it to another Folder.

Groupwise 8.02 client crashes in lion

I have recently migrated files and settings from a macbook snow leopard to a macbook air lion.
I have installed Groupwise client on the new machine. It loads fine but crashes repeatedly when I try to open a mail item. It connects to the internet and I can create and send mail just cannot physically open mail.
I have deleted any and all com.novell files I could find in the System folder/Home folder Library etc. I have tried starting up in Safe Mode but no luck.
BUT I can run Groupwise with no problems on the original macbook with the same settings AS WELL AS on the new machine under another user account.
Any ideas on what I can do to repair whatever is wrong with my admin user account?
Thanks very much!

GroupWise 8 client install issues

Not sure how many persons are having fun with upgrading GroupWise 8 client from version 7. We deployed it via the MSI and things seem to be going okay for the 150 persons we were deploying via Landesk as a pilot deployment. Then we ran into 2 systems that it would not install (you could uninstall and reinstall GW 7 okay, just not GW8), a few that had partial GW 8 installs and several that I am just finding out reporting delays when doing anything address book related like sending, auto-completetion, etc. You into the Address book and select services and nothing happens. Somebody called this Mapi hell. :-)
Our work around so far has been to uinstall Windows Messaging NT (these are Windows XP workstations), run CLEANIT and then re-install groupwise. I believe we reboot after cleanit.
What I am find is that GroupWise 8 is leaving in the Address Book "services" that are no longer needed (probably from GW 7). This is slowing down address book related functions like auto completion and sending e-mail. Also The Windows Messaging NT application is not always upgrading. Having been through 3 GroupWise upgrades (5 to 5.5, 5.5 to 6.5 and 6.5 to 7) this is by far the worst I have seen it. I am thinking that Novell should buy CLEANIT and just have it run each time you install GroupWise client.

GroupWise intall on Mac OS 10.8.5

Anyone have advice what to troubleshoot on a GroupWise 8 client install on Mac Book Pro using OS 10.8.5. The client installs but the issue is with startup. The GW client asks for un/pw and when it is provided the application just hangs there. We end up using "Force Quit" to get the GW 8 logo off of the screen. I have GW 8 running on my MBP that uses 10.9. Honestly, I wish that Novell would have a Mac client for GW14 since they have ZCM managing Macs.
Anyhow, thanks in advance for any support.

Note that GroupWise Client for Mac 8.0.2 HP4 was pulled by Novell so the
latest GroupWise Client now available from Novell for Mac is 8.0.2[3]
although it's possible to find the HP4 client download available
elsewhere if you know the filename (clue: it's referenced in the above
Cool Solutions article).
