Communications Express/UWC - Unwanted behaviour adding an owner of calendar

Hello:
root@machine # /opt/SUNWmsgsr/sbin/imsimta version
Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 6.3-0.15 (built Feb 9 2007)
libimta.so 6.3-0.15 (built 19:17:24, Feb 9 2007)
SunOS machine 5.10 Generic_137112-02 i86pc i386 i86pc
(I know we should patch)
root@machine # ./csversion
Sun Java(tm) System Calendar Server 6.3-8.01 (built May 5 2008)
SunOS calendar1 5.10 Generic_137112-03 i86pc i386 i86pc
We have noticed a weird behaviour in UWC when adding an owner in a calendar. You can add a new owner from the address book or just by typing its "name", which is actually the uid or the e-mail address. The point is that if you type an uid, for example "jlocke", the list of owners is filled correctly with "[email protected]", but if you type the entire e-mail address, "[email protected]", then the list of owners is filled with "[email protected]@domain.com", that of course leads to permissions error when jlocke tryes to do something in the calendar.
The desired behaviour is that if you type the entire e-mail address, "[email protected]", it shows an error message telling you that you must enter a uid, or that it takes "[email protected]" instead of "[email protected]@domain.com" as it is happening now.
Thank you very much.

(I know we should patch)Yes you should. This version has any number of known issues that can cause significant problems in production environments.

The value you add to the permission list is not the email address of the user but the uid/domain of the user. In your environment uid@domain may just happen to correlate to the mail: address value.
That being said, UWC should be able to handle uid@domain in the "Name:" field -- I've logged a new issue for this problem behaviour:
bug #6917116 - "Cannot manually input "uid@domain" to the calendar permission list name field"
If you want this bug fixed you must log a Sun support request otherwise it will not be fixed.

Default Calendar Group for Communications Express?

When using the soon to be eliminated Calendar Express (cshttpd) interface, it is possible to select a default calendar group. This causes the application to always display a calendar group after logging in rather than the user's individual calendar.
Does anyone know if it is possible to set such a preference in the Communications Express (uwc) interface?

UWC does not provide you this feature.You could raise an enhancement request -RFE .
Thanks,

Communications Express doesn't create access Manager SSO session

Hi all,
I'm running Communications Express, Sun Access Manager and Sun messaging server, each on seperate hosts.
Single Sign On works i.e. when users have a valid session and point their browser at the Communications Express URL they can access their mail, calendar and addressbooks without further ado.
When they don't have a valid session though and the users go to the Communications Express URL they get a username and password prompt. If they enter valid credentials they will be logged in, but the session created is only a local session, not an Access Manager SSO session. This behaviour has changed from the previous versions of Comm Exp which wouldn't work at all without SSO.
Is it possible to configure communications express to either redirect users to the Access Manager's authentication page or have Comm Exp create the SSO session on the users behalf?
TIA
Herman

Hi Shane,
as always your anwer is better then I could have expected. A more or less complete manual
just hours after asking my question. Thanks!

The cleanest solution I could develop to address the behavioural change was to
leverage a web-server policy agent to perform the redirections.
I wrote up a guide but never received any feedback unfortunately so results-may-vary.
I have republished this guide externally - feedback is welcome:
http://msg.wikidoc.info/index.php/AM_redirection_using_Policy_AgentTook me some time to implement, test and write feedback:
The setup we have is a little more complex then the a single box scenario you
have tested on:
From the internet working inwards we have load balanced
SSL accelerators (apache+SSL doing reverse proxy) in front of
dedicated application servers running communications express.
Mail is retrieved from separate mail-store clusters.
Access manager is configured similarly: load balanced SSL accelerators
in front of application servers running the login page (disributed
authentication UI). Those then talk to the access manager cluster.
Firewalls and access lists between each of those layers. None of the
applications can be accessed directly from the internet and they are
limited in what they can access in the DMZ as well.
I followed your recipe to the letter. After a bit of tweaking everything
worked like a charm. Policy agent installed and configured on the
SUN webserver where communications express is deployed.
Instructions were very good on detail and easy to follow.
We deploy uwc in the root of the server not in /uwc. Something I didn't notice right away.
It would seem that the policy agent expects the values com.sun.am.naming.url
(The URL for the Access Manager Naming service) and
com.sun.am.policy.am.login.url (The URL of the login page on the Access Manager
where users should enter their credentials) to be the same host.
In our setup the URL/host users have to use to log in can't be accessed by the policy agent.
The policy agent should verify sessions directly against the access manager cluster.
I played with some of the override settings in the policy agent configuration file but
without much success. Eventually I used the hostname our users have to use to log
in and abused the /etc/hosts file to map the external hostname to the internal address
of the access manager cluster. Users end up on the correct login page, and the policy
agent can verify the sessions. Ugly, but it works.
The other issue is that the policy agent redirects to:
com.sun.am.policy.am.login.url?goto=URL_Protected_by_Policy_Agent
When a users enters incorrect credentials they get the default login url, without the
goto parameter. (May be bug in access manager or by design...) After entering their
credentials correctly on their second or third try users won't be redirected back to UWC,
but will end up on the default page defined by their iplanet-am-user-success-url LDAP attribute.
I solved that in the policy agents configuration file by adding the gotoOnFail=URL in the
definition of com.sun.am.policy.am.login.url:
com.sun.am.policy.am.login.url = https://login.domain.com:443/amserver/UI/Login?gotoOnFail=https://uwc.domain.com:443When you enter incorrect credentials you'll be redirected back to uwc (where the policy agent
will again intercept you and send you on to the login page for your next try). May be more of
an issue in the policy agent then your manual.

Herman

Functionality Differences between Calendar Express & Communications Express

Now that the BIG problems related to our migration from Calendar v5.1.1 to v6.3 have died down, we're getting reports of significant (to our users, at least) differences in the functionality between our old environment (Calendar Express v5.1.1) and the new environment (Communications Express v6.3) (partial list at the end of this posting).
All of the below issues, I have checked in Calendar Express v6.3, and they appear to function as our users expect, like they did in 5.1.1. The problem is that we went live with CommExpress, and have not branded Calendar Express for general consumption. We would like to be able to make the CommExpr calendar functions work like they do in Calendar Express, assuming it wouldn't be a HUGE undertaking of modification to the underlying code. I've asked Sun Support for some answers regarding this, but thought I'd post something here while I wait for an answer.
Issues:
- When scheduling an appointment on someone else's calendar (subscribed), the owner of the calendar is NOT added as an invitee, but the logged-in user is. This causes major problems when trying to check availability, because the owner of the calendar is not included in this check, but the person doing the scheduling is, even though they're not going to the meeting.
- When you click on "check availability" from the main CommExpress calendar screen, it defaults to the logged-in user, and not the user for the currently selected "Current Calendar." Again, user reports that this functionality is different than previously.
- Also, previously when two events were scheduled for a user at the same time, the calendar would show "conflict" in red letters in both events. We are no longer getting this warning.
Again, all three of these issues behave in the current version of Calendar Express like they did in v5.1.1. CommExpress just doesn't work right in this respect. We'd like to continue to use CommExpress, since all indications are that Calendar Express is going away at some point, but we need the calendar functionality that CommExpress is not providing.
Thanks,
Kurt

Communication Express with AM SDK

I'm installing JES on 3 hosts. One is Directory Server, one has Access Manager and the third one should have Messaging + Communication Express.
On the third host I need to install MS, Web Server, Acess Manager SDK and Administration Server.
I install all of them and use "configure later".
The config of Adm Serv, Web Serv goes quick.
Then AM SDK via silent config.
I receive one error:
chown: jaxrpc-spi.jar: No such file or directoryBut the configuration ends.
Then I config MS and finally CE ( uwc ).
After restarting WebServ with CE/uwc I receive
"Not Found" in place of uwc.
When I do it alltogether on one host it's quick and easy.
What's wrong?
I think a AM SDK configuration is the point.
I'm not sure about few options:
DEPLOY_LEVEL=?
3 = Install Access Manager SDK only
4 = Install SDK only and configure the containerDIRECTORY_MODE=?
I've chosen 4.
Anyone?

This just came by my desk. . .
1) First check if the webserver runtime owner is root:other. In other words the runtime owner should
be the same for AM Server, AM SDK and UWC. It is preferred that the runtime owner be root:other
If the runtime owner for the webserver is not root (but webservd) then do the following
a) change the ownership of /opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-host.domain.com directory to root:other (recursively)
b) Edit the /opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-host.domain.com/config/magnus.conf file and change the line containing
"user webservd" to "user root"
c) restart the webserver
2) Checking of AM SDK. Run the following command from the frontend AM SDK location and should see
some output like the following
/opt/SUNWam/bin # ./amadmin -u amadmin -w password -m http://zaptos.red.iplanet.com:80
Get Sessions: Server Name = http://zaptos.red.iplanet.com:80
[Current Session] User Id: amAdmin Time Remain: 120 Max Session Time: 120 Idle Time: 0 Max Idle Time: 30
To invalidate sessions, enter the index numbers
[CR without a number to exit]:
Success 0: Successfully completed
3) If the above didn't work as expected, then follow this step. Create a new state file for AM SDK configuration
#cat amsamplesilent.uwc

Communication express 6.3 - timeout issus

Dear Sun,
Recently my office communication express 6.3 mail proxy encounter a timeout issue while login, i had changed the timeout sessions to value 600, but the problem still remain, sometime we need to login few times . Can Sun guide me to find out the root cause? thanks

Sun communication express - Calendar colour features

Let say event A is blue, Event B is redNo.
There is an RFE logged for this feature (RFE#6357817 - "Would like to have events color coded based to type") but as new features aren't being added to UWC/CE it will never be implemented.
There is also an RFE for Convergence (RFE#6633158 - "iwc should support different visual indication based on type of event").
If this functionality is important to your organisation then you will need to push this RFE via your Sun Account Manager who can then raise it with the Convergence product manager.

Communication express dates inconsistencies

hello
an user sent some emails via connector on the 3/7 but these emails never arrived. one moth later on the 4/8 this user retyped these emails and sent them again. then she connected to the uwc and in the sent items she could see the emails with date of 3/7 but when she opened them it was in fact the mails van 4/8. I am just wondering what causes this behaviour and how to correct the dates or show the correct messages with the correct dates?
thank you in advance.

I have asked more questions about what they mean never arrived. they just said 'had lost emails'.. Hmm... I'm a little surprised it took over a month before they tried to resend it and bring this to your attention. This alone makes me a little 'suspicious' of their story.
as far as the messages in the message store are concerned. the date in the header is from 4/8. and if i do a ls -l in the folder where these messages are stored, it also shows 4/8, however in communications express, sent items you see them with date of 3/7.You need to be careful of which folders the customer is looking at and which folders you are looking at. Remember that Outlook by default stores emails in the "Sent Items" folder and Comms Express stores them in the "Sent" folder. So make sure the user is actually looking at the correct folder -- this would explain how the dates could be different. Otherwise it isn't possible for an email to have a date header and a timestamp of 4/8 then show as 3/7 in Comms Express.

Communications Express without Calendar???

Hi all, is it possible to install Communications Express without Calendar Server running? I get the impression from Sun's docs that in order to install Comms Express you first need Messaging Server and Calendar Server running. The reason I ask is that our current iMS5.2 environment is to be upgraded to JES Messaging Server 6.3 but, for the time being, we are not in need of a Calendaring system. This may change in the future.
I am particularly interested in knowing whether it is possible to install Comms Express providing just messaging services and later, let's say in 6mths, add Calendaring services.
Thanks in advance,
Stewart

I get the impression from Sun's docs that in order to install Comms Express you first need Messaging Server and Calendar Server running.You need calendar server running if during the configuration of UWC you enable the calendar component:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4440/6n6jfgche?a=view
So in your case, just de-select the calendar component.
The reason I ask is that our current iMS5.2 environment is to be upgraded to JES Messaging Server 6.3 but, for the time being, we are not in need of a Calendaring system. This may change in the future. Sounds fair to me. Why introduce the added complexity of calendar if you don't need it post-upgrade. Please note however that the outlook connector requires calendar to be installed/configured in UWC.
I am particularly interested in knowing whether it is possible to install Comms Express providing just messaging services and later, let's say in 6mths, add Calendaring services.Yes you can do this by setting the calendar related settings in:

Communication Express - session timeout too fast

Hi all,
I have problem with communication express. Sometime, users are deconnected with the error :
"Connection session time out. Please relog"
This error can appear after 2 min, after reading 1 mail, or just after logging. I have tested with differents browsers.
Communication express is installed on application server 9.1u2 on my frontend, on which convergence is installed too. I haven't any problem with convergence.

Hi all,
we have same problem with communication express. Sometime, users are deconnected with the error :
"Connection session time out. Please relog"
This error can appear after sometimes 10 min and sometimes different time.
also we have tested with differents browsers.
Communication express is installed on application server 9.1u2 on my frontend, on which convergence is installed too. I haven't any problem with convergence.

libimta.so 7.0-3.01 32bit (built 09:08:43, Dec 9 2008)Convergence 1u3 requires MS7u3 and above. You can use the "commpkg upgrade" command to migrate to MS7u3 64-bit.
Sun Java(TM) System Communications Express 6.3 What is the exact patch level of UWC/CE (./showrev -p | grep uwc)?
After install Sun Java Convergence Address book in Communication Express gone. It showing white page after clicking on Address book tab. Address book is working fine under Convergence.Which web-container are you running (Sun WebServer7/App-Server 9.1/Glassfish 2.1)?
Are you running UWC/CE and Convergence in the same web-container?
What JDK version is in use by the web-container hosting UWC/CE?
Regards,
Shane.

Portal 6.3.1 "Communications Express Address Book" provider

Hi,
Does anyone have working setup with "Communications Express Address Book" provider from PS 6.3.1 ? I'm having a problem to get it to connect to UWC address book in my JES3 test installation. All other connections to "old" address book, "old" and uwc-type mail, calendar, IM are working fine.
Thanks,
Mareks

Having trouble with calendar server with SSO in communication express

I have configured communication express with components calendar, messaging and access manager. I am able to login that but when i click on calendar ,it says "Aplication Error" NULL pointer Exception. I am able to access address book and options for all of them. i checked the am_sso.log , it has statement
com.sun.uwc.UWCMainViewBean <init>
SEVERE: UWCMainViewBean:forwardToURL(forwardtodefview) - null
Can anybody tell me how to fix that problem?
Thanks

A similar problem was discussed over in the Calendar Server forum: http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=101320 Check out the answers there (and the Calendar Server forum is probably a better place to ask this anyway since it looks pretty specific...)
