Sun's Calendar Server

Hello,
For the Sun Calendar Server out there, this is to announce that I posted the first alpha release of a iSync application able to synchronize Apple's iCal with Sun's Calendar Server.
Binaries, source code and screenshots are available at SourceForge :
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/jscalendarsync
- and -
http://web.mac.com/sebsto/iWeb/projects/JSCalendarSync.html
This is work in progress, so be carefull if you test it.
This is an open-source project, don't hesitate to help
Happy hacking

That rocks dude! I'm going to have to check this out!
Thanks,

Question about Sun Java Calendar Server 7

You downloadable forum, at [http://www.sun.com/software/products/calendar_srvr/get_it.jsp|http://www.sun.com/software/products/calendar_srvr/get_it.jsp],
leaves one with two questions.
-What databases are needed/supported by this MessageBoard System for backend storage?
-What are the licensing details? May the MessageBoard/Communications Suite 7
be installed and used in a commercial environment, free?
-May Sun Java Calendar Server 7 be downloaded without the Communications suite?
-Can it be run off an Apache Tomcat Server with J2SE,J2EE codebases?

Although... at the top of this forum it says
This is a forum for new Java developers to get acquainted with the technologies and tools associated with the Java Platform.It doesn't actually say anything about programming, not there nor in what follows. So it isn't surprising that the OP thought this was a suitable forum to ask about that server, which looks as if it might be a "tool associated with the Java platform".

ENS samples for Sun One Calendar Server 6.0

Hello,
We have installed Sun One Calendar Server 6.0 and will like to implement ENS subscribers using Java API.
We are unable to locate the sample implementation for ENS (JmsSample.java) at the location specified in the documentation. After installing the Sun One Messaging Server the folder structure obtained under the msg_server_base is different from the one expected according to the documentation.
Can anyone help us with the information on where we can locate the java samples ?
Best Regards.

User agent and referer information can be logged. Refer to following docs(see under Table 7-1):

Integrate Sun ONE Messaging and Sun ONE Calendar server with Portal 6.0

We need to integrate (implement a Single Sign On solution) Sun ONE/iPlanet Messaging and Calendar servers with Portal 6.0. The Msg and Cal. servers do not use Portal Profile server as their DS and have a different DS.This directory server is the external DS for Portal. After users login to Portal, they should be able to access Msg and Cal. servers without login to them again.
1. How do we do this without writing a java code/servlet ?
2. Is there any way that we could configure DSAME to create the URL,add userID and password to it and forward that URL to above servers ?

Hi,
The SunOne communication providers for version 6.0 will be released soon.
(you can get beta versions from early access program)
Like in the portal version 3.0 these channels
are enabling SSO for messaging and calendar servers.
(I tested them with iMSG5.2 and Calendar5.1.1)
Cheers,
Alex :-)

Notification Problem on: Calendar Server 6.0 and IMServer 6.1

Hello everybody,
I have a very confusing problem with the Instant Messenger notification feauture for the Sun ONE Calendar server. I have set up both servers and the jms can communicate with ens and the other way round. But if a event occours I get the following Message in the /var/opt/SUNWiim/default/log/server.log file:
[19/Mar/2004:15:35:00 +0100] WARNING: CalendarReminder: User [email protected] Does not exist. (xxx is username and domainname)
But now its getting confusing, if I send myself an Alert message over the IMS client applet I can see the following Message:
[19/Mar/2004:17:53:00 +0100] DEBUG: [Realm] getUser: [email protected]
[19/Mar/2004:17:53:00 +0100] DEBUG: [Realm] found user in cache: [email protected]
[19/Mar/2004:17:53:00 +0100] DEBUG: Sending Alert/Invite
Any ideas what I could have done wrong?
Many thanks in advance

I have the same problem... any forward in Struts after a call to WebLogic 8 session EJB will give me the same AccessControlException in HttpRequestFacade.getHttpRequestBase.
It seems that after WebLogic EJBs is called, the security policy gets all mixed up. You can fix this by granting in code the correct policy just before the forward... but this is a workaround not a fix (and a potential security hole).
            Policy.setPolicy(
                new Policy() {
                    public PermissionCollection getPermissions(CodeSource cs) {
                        Permissions perms = new Permissions();
                        perms.add(new AllPermission());
                        return(perms);
                    public void refresh() {
            return actionMapping.findForward("success");

Logging in Calendar Server sometimes takes forever

Test setup :
- On Windows NT Server 4.0 SP6a
- Sun ONE Calendar Server (5.1.1),
- Local user prefs LDAP database : IPlanet Directory Server
- Distant auth LDAP database : OpenLDAP
Just after restarting the services, login procedure works OK and fast. After a few hours of use, login procedure takes about 2 minutes and 40 seconds (but finally works).
Other factors :
- If the login credentials are cached, everything works OK and fast. If and only if the credentials are not cached and the server has been used for some time, then the login takes forever.
- Network sniffing reveals that CS does two LDAP queries : one to get the DNs related to the login, one to check the credentials using a BIND operation. When everything works, the two requests are done quickly in succession. When it doesn't work, the first request is done (answer comes immediately) then CS delays for about 2 minutes 40 seconds before doing the second request.
- I've played with several ics.conf parameters (LDAP cache, session duration, HTTP timeout...) without much success.
Any ideas ?

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

Sun Java System Calendar Server 2005q1 configuration issue

Sun Calendar Server on Fedora Core

Hi All,
I am new to this forum and this product. I want to develop a solution around the Sun Calendar Server for which I want to download the evaulation version and try it out.
Is anybody aware of whether the server will work on Linux Fedora Core 5 or other Fedora Core versions

Hi,
I am new to this forum and this product. I want to
develop a solution around the Sun Calendar Server for
which I want to download the evaulation version and
try it out.
Is anybody aware of whether the server will work on
Linux Fedora Core 5 or other Fedora Core versionsWhether it works or not is beside the point. Fedora Core is not a supported platform for Sun Calendar so if you did run into problems in the future and need Sun support assistance you would be told in no uncertain terms to go-away. This would be no different to attempting to run the calendar software on OpenSolaris.
Save yourself heartache and use either Solaris 10 x86 or Redhat AS/ES 3.0/4.0 instead (I'm personally biased towards the Solaris 10 side of things).

Connect JUST Outlook Calendar to Sun Java System Calendar Server

Is it possible to connect JUST the Outlook Calendar to a Sun Java System Calendar Server, using Sun Java System Connector for Microsoft Outlook 6.0?
Leaving all other outlook functionality hooked up to exchange?
Hal.

Hi,
Being disconnected straight away after authenticating to an MMP doesn't sound very healthy.
Has the MMP worked in the past - can you connect to the MMP with another email client such as Mozilla Thunderbird and collect your email?
Is the MMP AService.rc process crashing/core dumping?
What does the MMP IMAP log tell you/have you tried increasing the logging level and connecting again?
Regards,
Shane.

Sun Java System Calendar Server 6 "cshttpd" crash problem

I have a Calendar account that crashes the "cshttpd" process every time they
login to add invites to their Calendar. I've done a ."/csdb -v -f -g rebuild" and that didn't fix the problem, and it doesn't show that there are any database errors. I can
log into other Calendar accounts with no problem. You can log into this account
but once the users tries to add the invites it crashes the "cshttpd" process.
I've patch the Calendar Server 6 with the latest patches so everything is up to date with the latest version.
Any Solutions?

When rebuilding the database, can I make sure that you are coping over the rebuilt db back into the production csdb directory?
Also, is it just the one user that causing the crash, do other users work and use the calendar server fine?
Have you tried performing the dump and reload procedure mentioned in the admin guide:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2433/6n4nlfjum?a=view
NOTE: You may want to first perform a db_verify on each db as follows:
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50alarms.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50calprops.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50events.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50gse.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50journals.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50recurring.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> ics50todos.db
./db_verify -h <path to production db> -o ics50deletelog.db
Note: The deletelog db needs to be ran with the -o option. Also you should run the db_* commands as the calendar server runtime user id.

Calendar Server 6.0 2004Q2 and Sun One Synchronization 1.1

Hello,
we have a problem with Calendar Server 6.0 2004Q2 and Sun One Synchronization running with a Palm. The connection from the sync tool to calendar server works, but we cannot select one calendar of the user. With Calendar Server 6 2003Q4 ist worked well. Is there something changed in wcap in the new version? Does anybody know how to solve that problem?
Yours,
Angela

Hello,
I confirm that I have the same problem with that version (CS 6.0 2004Q2). I cannot select any calendar and It looks like only the default calendar is synchronized. It used to work with the previous version, though.
We have an application that uses WCAP commands. It works perfectly with both versions.

Degrading sun calendar server

Hi,
I have upgraded the Calendar server from 6.2 to 6.3 on their solaris system. but now admin has informed that we need to degrade it to 6.2
I know its not possible with sun calendar. Any thoughts
Please see http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite6U1/Calendar+Server+6.3+Release+Notes; the cstool application has been removed.

I know its not possible with sun calendar.Correct. Upgrading from CS6.2 to CS6.3 upgrades the database version. That process cannot be reversed. The only way to downgrade and retain the data would be to export the calendar databases to a flat-text file in CS6.3 and re-import into the CS6.2 system. I've provided steps on this process here:
http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5259793
The other method would be to csexport all of the user/resource calendars from the CS6.3 database and then csimport them back into the CS6.2 system.
I doubt either method has been tried before by customers so there is a high probability that you will hit problems.
Please see http://wikis.sun.com/display/CommSuite6U1/Calendar+Server+6.3+Release+Notes; the cstool application has been removed.
Why is the cstool utility essential for the customer?

Sun Calendar Server as a master calendar

Greetings!
We currently use the Sun Java System Calendar Server for student, faculty & staff personal calendars (via the web client) and use a separate in-house system for our web-based master events calendar. The latter is starting to show its age, so we are looking at ways of either updating it to make it more flexibile or to move to a different solution.
As we already own the Sun Calendar Server, we were wondering what the feasibility of using it as a master calendar would be. Have any of you used it this way, and if so, would you mind sharing your experiences with me?
Also, are there any tools already developed to do so? I have done some experimentation with the APIs and the XML generated from the calendar with some success, but would rather not reinvent the proverbial wheel.
Thanks,
Eric

The university I work at is also looking into this as well. We are seeking to have a public calendar that different people/accounts can post public events and meetings.
I am currently investigating if this can be done with the Sun Calendar Server. The notion of a 'layered' calendar comes to mind, but am not sure if this is possible with the Sun Calendar.
I'll share what I find If I have the chance.
thanks..
