Enabling Google Analytics Mountain Lion Server

Hi everyone,
I just recently configured my first Mac server for a public school I'm working in. After setting up the Wiki server I was shocked there wasn't a way to enable Google Analytics, or any javascript for that matter. After a little poking around, I found a way to enable Google Analytics across all pages, Wiki, Home, My Page, etc.
Terminal command in BLUE
HTML comments in GREEN
1. Log into your Google Analytics account and copy your embed code.
2. Open the terminal and type: (I use nano, but you should be able to use your favorite text editor)
sudo nano /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/share/collabd/coreclient/app/v iews/layouts/application.html.erb
3. You can add the script anywhere between the <head></head> tags. I chose to add it right below this section:


4. Create comments to start and end the Google Analytic section (optional) and paste your embed code. It should look something like this:



<script type="text/javascript">
var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXXXXXX-X']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
(function() {
    var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
    ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
</script>



5. Save and close the file
6. I restarted the Wiki server, but I'm pretty sure it's not necessary.
7. Now all your pages should have Google Analytics embedded. Load one of your pages and check the source to make sure.
Enjoy!
P.S. While I was in the application.html.erb file I added my own custom .js to the  section to look like this:

<script src="/wiki/javascripts/custom.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

I then included my custom.js file in /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/share/collabd/coreclient/publi c/javascripts
The js is loaded fine, but right now you can't embed any js events into the wiki. If I add 'onlick' or 'onload' to an HTML element in the Wiki editor, it gets removed when you click "Save". Trying to find a workaround now.

Well no, Google doesn't solve all problems, but its a great place to start.
As far as your issue goes, you need to provide more details before anyone could begin to guess, as we're not mind readers here.
What do you mean by "Windows only sees the router, not the server"? What does "sees" mean in this context?
Who / what is Windows proofs?
How are you trying to access the server? SMB file sharing? If so, how are you trying to connect? What happens when you try? Do the users trying to authenticate to the server have an account on it and access to the necessary services?

Configuring postfix on Mountain Lion Server

I'm trying to upgrade from Snow Leopard Server to Mountain Lion Server and did an install of Mountain Lion Server on top of a working instance of Snow Leopard Server. The "crippled" GUI on Mountain Lion Server is forcing me into using terminal to configure Postfix to handle incoming email.
I would like to configure Postfix to only accept email that is forwarded from a gmail business account. The public email address is [email protected] which is received by Google Mail, goes through their spam filters and then is auto-forwarded to [email protected]
The server WAN domain is nonpublic.com The ip address is 96.231.165.126
The server LAN is nonpublic.local The ip address is 10.6.18.201
The server is a MacMini running Mountain Lion Server 10.6.8 hostname server so the FQDN is server.public.com.
The network on the MacMini is configured to handle both LAN and WAN traffic through the 1GB physical ethernet port which plugs into a CISCO 3750 switch. The external traffic to the WAN flows through the switch as tagged packets. The LAN traffic is not tagged. The VLAN connection is running 802.1q
When an email is sent through the WAN to [email protected] the Postfix SMTP log shows:
Jun 7 19:29:22 server.public.com postfix/smtpd[42181]: connect from cisco.public.com[96.231.165.123]
Jun 7 19:29:22 server.public.com postfix/smtpd[42181]: disconnect from cisco.public.com[96.231.165.123]
I can send emails from a client on the LAN through this server with no problems. The incoming mail server can connect to the machine via the Cisco router/switch but Postfix just shows "cisco" as the connection (that's the router's DNS name) and provides no more info. I suspect Postfix possibly doesn't like the 802.1q connection and drops the SMTP request to connect on port 25.
I have turned on "debug" logging in Postfix, but that is all that appears in the SMTP log file
I've spent most of the week reading through everything I can find on how to install and configure postfix on Mountain Lion Server and work around the cripled GUI in the "server" application. I'm barely OK using Terminal and not familiar at all with configuring Postfix directling editing the config file.
What is the best approach to configure Postfix to allow SMTP connections from the outside to deliver incoming email that is forwarded from gmail.com?
I did find an "aliases" file in /etc/postfix/aliases but I'm not sure how to add the aliases and if adding aliases with a text editor is going to cause the "server" app problems and if the changes will be lost when the machine is restarted.
Any help would be appreciated.

MrHoffman, thank you for your response to my challenge to get the new test server working. This is a migration from Snow Leopard Server to Mountain Lion Server.
Here is the "checkhostname" test results:

I agree that I should change the LAN domain from .local to something like .internal or whatever.   I've been running with .local for 5 years on snow leopard server and never had any problems so that was a low priority.
I hope I'm just not seeing some obvious setting in main.cf

Mountain Lion Server 10.8 DNS ERROR READING SETTINGS

Hi! Well I changed from windows 2008 server to Mountain Lion Server. So far, I have been able to set up website hosting for one website, and I must say works better than windows server 2008, maybe thats because the mac keeps the drive spun up, while in windows server it was an external drive, whatever the issue mac serves up the site much faster that it comes exploding onto the screen of the searcher.. Then I went to try to set up email, I was totally excited, but I think I did a no no in the dns settings, and now, I cant even see them, I just get "Error Reading Settings" Of course I see things in the log that I should undo, but I cant access the DNS settings at all. Any ideas how I can get to the dns settings so I can undo my booboo? Now it has streched its error self into the file sharing, and I cant access those settings anymore either, so that means I cant set up other websites because I cant give permission to view those folders. I also just got another err saying "Multiple errors occured on this server while processing commands. Just exactly what the heck did I do? I must have REALLY SCREWED THIS THING UP! Also strangely Safari browser no longer acceses the web from the server computer. I THINK I KILLED IT.
Any Ideas?
Thanks I really appreciate any tips, I havent got to calendar or vpn, or any fun stuff yet.. Or maybe it might not be fun at all? hahahahahaa!
Thanks

I've gotten into this mess as well and Apple solved it for me.
The Server should be able too lookup itself so running DNS is a good thing, actually the server sets up DNS at install time if it can't find a server to serve it's DNS so it can lookup itself.
The main error in my case was that there wasn't a NS record pointing the machine itself and that there were some firewall rules preventing DNS lookups. Since there is no way to edit the firewall rules via GUI the engineer manually changed some stuff, but wasn't sure where the problem lies exactly, so he passed it on to another engineer.
At this point I was already forced to switch to Google Apps for Business and my website was already running at GoDaddy, at much lesser costs and to much lesser frustration I might add.
Let's face it, Apple has to deliver a better product with the old Server Admin back into place for those who want it for the extra control.
My servers were running great with Lion (eventually), but Apple just had to remove Server Admin from OS X Server... #their_loss

Mail Server problems with Mountain Lion Server

Well, I don't see a section here for Mountain Lion yet so I'll ask here. I installed Mountain Lion Server and for the most part everything is working well. I am have issues with the Mail Server though. As long as I dissable everthing but the Blacklist filter all works fine. If I enable Junk Mail or Virus filters I get this:
postfix/smtp[52062]: connect to 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024: Connection refused
From doing some serching it seems to have something to do with amavisd but I don't think it is installed on my system. If it is I can't seem to find it. Should it be installed with the Server Software?
I'm really lost here so any help would be great.
Thanks,
Tom

Start Mountain Lion server on boot

Is it possible to start OSX Mountain Lion Server when I boot up my Mac Mini?
I have to login now each time I boot to start the server service.
Any help would be appreciated.
Mike

Once you have installed Server.app and configured and started the services you want to use they will automatically start when your Mac is booted. It is not necessary to login for the services to run, nor is it necessary to have the Server.app running. The Server.app is used purely for configuring settings and is not the server software itself.
Some administrators would argue having a server logged in and showing the Finder etc. is an additional security risk even if you have a good password and the screensaver locked.
It is purely up to you, however if you really want to have the Mac server automatically login and automatically run Server.app then you can do this in System Preferences -> Users & Groups -> Login Options, and then turn on Automatic login for the Administrator account. Then for the Administrator account set Server.app to be run in the Login Items tab.
Note: You also need to check to see if Automatic Login has been disabled in the Security & Privacy preference pane and if needed re-enable it.

DNS Changes (Mountain Lion Server & Airport Extreme)

I'm using a Mac Mini Mountain Lion Server with a Airport Extreme Router. The router is currently providing the DHCP funtion. Is it possible to change the DHCP settings on the router to use the DNS server on the Mac Mini Server rather than the one in the router.
I can't see any setting on either the Airport Utility or the Server App I was wondering if the DNS Server setting could be change via the comand line.
Many Thanks
Darren

Hi Darren,
Have you tried putting your Airport Extreme into Bridge Mode? That should enable you to use the DHCP service on your server.

Use Mountain Lion server (Mail) as a Microsoft Exchange alternative?

Dear community,
I googled for this question (see topic) and I found some threads (also on the Apple Support Communities) of people asking the same question, rather they mention Lion server and not Mountain Lion server. When I look at some reactions to those questions I see replies saying that you should only use the Mail server in small scenarios (30 - 50 people) and some say it would be wiser to stick with Microsoft Exchange.
I am wondering if you guys think about this the same way. I work for a school with roughly 1500 users and 400 employees. So that's approximately 2k useraccounts / mailaccounts. I'm sure I want to get rid of MS Exchange for various reasons, should I give the Mail server a try or should I search for alternatives?
Kind regards, John

John,
you really can't compare Apple(s) with ... well Microsoft(s).
It is not up to the number of users, as Mark23 already said, because postfix will be capable of handling more mails than your users will produce any day. Rather it is up to what you expect to get. Exchange can deliver you more services, workflow integration and user experience than postfix/dovecot/calendar/address book (of cause you have to pay a price!). But what do you need?
Just mail? Shared calendars or address books?
Maybe you are looking that way just to get mail. Do you need kerberized services? Are your users mainly using Mail app? Do you want the simple configuation interface that comes with OS X server instead of standard files? Then go with OS X Server. Otherwise you might consider a linux box with postfix and dovecot.
But it's all up to your requirements.

How to configure Mountain Lion Server to run Web2py with wsgi?

I am trying to config Mountain Lion Server to run Web2py with mod_wsgi. I get an error saying: "Premature end o scritp Header" wsgihandler.py (which is the wsgi file for Web2py).
I had it working fine in Snow Leopard and Lion Servers but not in Mountain Lion Server.
Thanks for your help.
Flavio.

I don't run web2py framework so can't tell you specifically.
That error means your script is not writing an http header to the browser so the browser can't decode whatever string it is getting. Your script is running as a plain old Python script. This is most likely because the Server.app in 10.8 now includes mod_wsgi built-in and configured from the GUI.
You can insert an intercept anywhere in your code to check any variable by saying this:
########## PROGRAMMING HERE ###############
print("Content-type:text/plain\n\n")
print(someVariable)
# raise SystemExit
The above sends an "http header" so the browser knows what to do. These headers are invisible in the browser window. But depending on your Python version, the pring statement may not work (I am running Python3). The SystemExit statement is optional, just in case your script crashes downstream.
WSGI sends a header like this:
startResponse("200 OK", [("Content-Type", "text/plain")])
but it sounds like mod_wsgi is not even being invoked. Normally your WSGI script is named *.wsgi and your Apache is set up to run the Python script as CGI under the mod_wsgi handler using this directive:
AddHandler wsgi-script .wsgi
The file having the config is located at
/Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/httpd_wsgi.webapp.conf
where webapp is the name of your webapp. I would suggest copying the file called httpd_wsgi.conf and renaming it to your webapp name. When Server.app is configured properly, you enable wsgi webapps in the GUI Advanced wndow for your domain.

Mountain Lion Server with Windows 8.1 Client communication problems

We have a Mountain Lions Server and several diffent Clients that need access to it.
Macs work fine Linux clients work fine
Windows 8.1 only "sees" the router but not the Server or the Printer
the "Windows proofs" tell me its a Problem with the server
has anyone an Idea what I can do?
And pls don't tell me I should change all Windows clients to Mac. If I had so much money I would, but at the moment the existing systems need to stay.
@ Templeton Pack
I know this is a Mac Community
and no google doesn't solve all Problems

Well no, Google doesn't solve all problems, but its a great place to start.
As far as your issue goes, you need to provide more details before anyone could begin to guess, as we're not mind readers here.
What do you mean by "Windows only sees the router, not the server"? What does "sees" mean in this context?
Who / what is Windows proofs?
How are you trying to access the server? SMB file sharing? If so, how are you trying to connect? What happens when you try? Do the users trying to authenticate to the server have an account on it and access to the necessary services?

I'm trying to use Mountain Lion Server so my family can have separate logins via Screen Share to their iTunes.

Using Mountain Lion Server so my family can have separate logins and connect via Screen Share.
Works great, each has their own home directory and permissions are perfect.
Now setting up iTunes for each with their own Library (not shared), thus keeping multiple Libraries.
I get this;
This Computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you
cannot auto-download past purchases with a different
Apple ID for 90 days.
What!
So what it is on the same computer, they are completely separate Libraries never to be mixed.
If this works, I only need to keep one computer up and running, instead of three.
Each can do their syncing/backup and connect to the various Airplay/AppleTVs I have around the house.
How do I fix this.
Thanks

Bottom line is you can't - easily.
You need to make sure that you log out of the server each time otherwise the ID is running. To explain, if you had a laptop with different people using it, your solution works fine. Each time someone logs in, the iTunes ID is different so it works as you can only have one person using the laptop at any one time.
Now, turning your problem inside-out, you want people to be able to log into iTunes concurrently to use their own version of the program with their own library. This does not seem to work and you get the conflicted ID error message. Even though iTunes is running under their own login ident, I have never been able to get this working reliably and was told that iTunes is NOT a network-aware application as it is designed to be single user.
The way I got around this was to login as XYZ and to make sure that the ID was changed in iTunes accordingly. However, it did not always work so I gave up with the whole thing.

Unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion Server (Options are greyed out)

For some reason, im unable to add/remove users in Mountain Lion server. The + and - are greyed out. It seems like something is wrong with the permissons because it looks like it cant write the the Ldav3 file (although that may be speculation). Does anyone have any advice for me? I URGENTLY need to add users.
Maybe theres a way to restore default permssions for the boot drive (if that in fact is the issue). Hopefully there is a way that I can fix this while leaving all users, groups, their permissions and shares intact.

Anything interesting and relevent in the server logs?
Anything interesting in the server alerts?
Since it's far and away the most common cause of problems with OS X Server and with distributed authentication (Open Directory is entirely based on network encryption and digital certificates and on responses from your local DNS server(s)), verify your local DNS configuration is working and requires no changes with the following Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities) harmless, diagnostic command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
sudo requires an administrative password. You might get a one-time warning about the sudo, and that can safely be ignored. The command will display some details, and indicate whether the local configuration appears valid and no changes are required, or further diagnostics for (most) common errors that can arise.

Regarding mountain lion server: clients experience intermittent service connections. the server system log has the following error- Client handshake failed (6):113: Server not accepting client connections (any ideas???)

Hi Jason
I was getting the same behavior after Apple support had me delete some plist files to get Airplay going. I was also getting the following error:
the error occurred while processing a command of type 'writesettings' in the plug-in 'server vpn'
I went into ~/Library/Preferences/ and /Library/Preferences/ and deleted every plist contating the word server. I had to re-set up my server (meaning walk through some intial steps) but all of my settings were still there after that and everything started working again.
Just a thought, obviously try at your own risk but it worked for me.

How To Set Up Mountain Lion Server/Point DNS to Mac Mini Server

Hello, First of all I have no experience with setting up servers whatsoever. Below is what I have
- Mac Mini with Mountain Lion Server
- Time Capsule as my router
- Comcast as my service provider
My goal is to set up my MacMini as a sharepoint for files and other data with my other partners.
- I have purchased a domaine name from NetworkSolutions. Does this mean that they are my DNS hosting as well? Not really sure. My biggest question is how to point my DNS to my mac mini server correctly.
1. How do you point the DNS to my mac mini server.
2. I've read somewhere to use the IP address from my mac mini server. The only IP address I see is from my Time Capsule (router). I know what my public IP adress is but I am not sure if that's the one to use. I think once I figure this DNS thing I can figure out the rest.
Thanks - Need lots of help.

Here's a detailed write-up on setting up internal (private) DNS on OS X Server, and no, you're probably not going to be setting up external DNS on your servers. Your public DNS service will be hosted on and served from the Network Solutions DNS servers.

Upgrading to Mountain Lion server and all services breaks down...

Hi!
I have, after endless hours of scanning logs and .plist and other files' content and permission settings found why Mountain Lion Server.app in some cases doesn't seem to be able to take control over all service, stating it can't read or write its own setting files etc.
As a Swede I of course run a system set in the Swedish language. Mountain Lion can't upgrade a Swedish system, only fore languages are accepted !!!
See Migration Logs!
//Excerpt from the Mail Migration log:
Begin Mail Migration: Thu Aug 2 19:34:24 2012
purge: 0
sourceRoot: /Library/Server/Previous
sourceType: System
sourceVersion: 10.7.4
targetRoot: /
language: sv
Did not supply a valid language for the --language parameter, needs to be one of [en | fr | de | ja]
As you can see, it can only upgrade in English, French, German and Japanese system language. With no inital warnings the system crashes and causes a true mess half the way through its installation when you start Server.app.
Solution:
Throw Server.app in the trash or move it outside the Application folder, to force the computer to realized "its not a server". It can take half a minute or so for the system to realize it is no longer a server. You will see a sign.
Change the language setting to English in your system preferences and restart your computer. Move back Server.app from the trash (or where you put it) and start Server.app, thereby initiating a new Servers installation. I was happy to find that all mail accounts etc was found again. I thought for several hours they where lost.
The various sites hosted by the server did however not appear in their correct new location (when I tryed this). I had to manually move them from the "Previous" folder in /Library/Server/Previous/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/ to /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/
I hope this helps anyone out there....
Cheers!
Stefan

Please explain.... when are you stoped from upgrading?
I haven't actually had problems with the actual OS upgrade it is when you launch Server.app the first time everything goes to f-n h....
Server.app should reconfigure and move around a lot of files and it does, but not succeeding doing it correctly. Many services can't read their config files and have them in two places. I trying to figure out which ones are being used. Somethime both locations are used but only parts of the settings in the files !?!?
I am soon giving up...

How can I set up a mail alias in Mountain Lion Server?

Hi, newbie to Mountain Lion Server here.
I've set up mail for domain a.com and a virtual domain b.com
User a receives mail just fine at [email protected] and [email protected], now I wanted to receive mail for [email protected] as an alias, which I understood after reading the posts here is done by going to 'advanced options' of user a and setting b in the alias field.
But sending a mail to [email protected] bounces with a "550 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table".
However sending a mail to [email protected] does work, so I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong.

Hi, it's a late response, I know, but I had same problem just now and in my searching for an answer I found your question. ...better yet, I also found the answer - simply make a user alias including the virtual domain, like for instance if you want alias c to receive mails from both a.com and b.com, you should make two aliases:
c, [email protected]
where the first alias defaults to a.com as the default domain and the second explicitly specified the virtual domain.
Cheers
