Web Calendar in Mac OS X Server 10.5

The iCal server in Mac OS X 10.5 Server correctly records recurring events and they are visible in iCal. However, when viewed through a group's web calendar, only the first instance of the event is visible.
Is there a non-default setting that has to be turned on or is this a bug? I've tried it in 10.5.4 and 10.5.5 server.

I have the same question. I have a brand new install of ML running Server and have turned on Calendar service but cannot seem to actually ever create a calendar account so that I can share my calendar across various computers and users...

Web service in Mac OS X server - Tiger

How to enable web service? From the server admin panel, it indicates web service is not running and I can't start it as it is grayed out.
Please advise

Hi,
I'm looking for a solution to the grayed out issue myself, but I do have a workaround for you.
Use "sudo apachectl" to start/stop/restart etc the web service when Server Admin has it grayed out and/or says "service unavailable". You will have to edit the httpd.conf and sites files (in /etc/httpd/ ) to set up your configuration -- linux experience helps here.
Follow up here if you find a solution to the grayed out issue and can resume using Server Admin for this.
Hope this helps.

The server at Mac OS X Server Web Services requires a username and password

I am running SL Server 10.6.2, wiki works but when a person clicks an attached file in a wiki and then selects "open" they get a login popup with the notification The server at Mac OS X Server Web Services requires a username and password. It doesn't matter what they put into the login/pass it comes back. If they hit cancel then the document opens. If they click save then it saves with no issue. I can type in the admin login/pass of the server and it works. Does this mean the security settings to the location of the files is wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Mac OS X Server - Web Hosting & Media Server

Hi All - Need advice. I have MacPro and have purchased MacPro Server.
Here is what I plan to do with MacPro Server:
1. Host couple of my personal websites, blogs etc.
2. Use it as a iTunes Media Server so that I can access my iTunes content through VPN / Internet remotely.
I want to use my MacPro largely for Web development work (basically as a DEV environment) whereas MacPro Server will be my Production environment. I have a couple of questions and will be grateful for your advice:
1. Is it a good practice to have iTunes Media Server on Mac OS X Server?
2. Presently, I have all my iTunes library stored on 2 x 2TB hard drives within MacPro. I would really like to move these hard drives to my MacPro Server and import the content to iTunes there. Can I do it? Will I lose the ratings and other details?
3. Will I be able to access iTunes on Mac OS X Server via Internet / VPN remotely?
Thanks in advance!!

How to make iCal Server events viewable on the web calendar?

Hi,
I can create, edit and view events on the web calendar.
I can create, edit and view my own events via iCal.
How can I set it up so we can see all the calendars from our group on the web calendar? It's empty now other than what's entered via the web calendar.
Is there really no integration between the two?

I too thought web group calendar was subscribe only in iCal until I ran across the procedure at
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20080410162942908
in the 4th comment down by protean. With a couple of additions I was able to post an event to the web group calendar and have an update on the web post back to the iCal calendar. My additions were needed to get the results as posted in the comment:
1) make sure Enable Calendaring is selected for all group members,
2) refresh iCal to ensure all group members are visible in the Personal Server Calendar Address Pane before adding the group calendar account,
3) add all members in step 3 of the procedure including yourself, however, if the owner of the group (e.g. diradmin) is not a member then don't add it,
4) prior to step 6 of the procedure you can verify the group is visible as in step 8 in the Personal Server Calendar delegation before deleting the group account; if not visible then you don't have to start from scratch, just work with the group account from step 1,
5) the group calendar shows up in the left column list of calendars under Delegates calendars.
So I got this to work.
Then I setup a location in Directory.app with Delegates as the group. It shows up in iCal under Delegates calendar with the error notice
'Error While Refreshing Access to account "location title" is not permitted.'
So there is no calendar available for the location in iCal. The personal iCal account shows the Delegation of location and the Show checkbox is selected. The group is allowed to select the location on the web calendar and in the server iCal calendar. But the location doesn't indicate conflicts in the availability pane. Can someone tell me what might be missing?

Old Web Server Software on Mac OS X Server 10.4.6?

I am wondering why my apache that is running is only 1.3.33 accordign to my webmin tool that my friend installed, the php and sql are old too.
I'm not a unix guru by any means and I want to upgrade these and enable GD etc, but I'm running 4 or more virtual servers by using the server tools and I don't want to break the builtin functionality of the server tools. Is apple going to upgrade this stuff on os x server?

Mac OS X Server ships with both Apache 1.3.33 and Apache 2.2 (in /opt/apache2).
You're more than welcome to disable Apache 1.3.x and use 2.2 if you prefer.
However, the Server Admin GUI will only currently work with Apache 1.3.x, so if you do you'll need to manage your configurations manually.

Hello cpreasbeck,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
I was able to find the following transition guide for Xserve that provides some workload guidance to determine performance when planning a server deployment.
Transition Guide Xserve
http://images.apple.com/xserve/pdf/L422277A_Xserve_Guide.pdf
On page 9, Performance there is a chart that provides maximum numbers of connected users for various activities such as file sharing, mail, web, calendar, directory services and Time Machine and the CPU used as a server (Xserve, Mac Pro, Mac Mini). This information is a bit dated as the referenced software is Snow Leopard Server (OS X 10.6), and the hardware is older also, but it should give you a general idea of what you might need to look for.

Time in web calendar

Hello people, I wrote this post in ical server but i got no answer, so i will try my luck heir:
i have the problem in the web calendar using (safari and firefox):
We put our meetings online in the web browser so that windows users can see meeting of the mac users.
the problem is when i write a meeting from 10 till 12 clock is the web browser it tells me an error that I have no access right, but when i write a meeting 10:00 to 11:59 the browser tells no error and it save the meeting,
or if I add 24 clock then the web browser chang it to 12 noon
can somebody help me??!!
the time zone on xp clients and mac os x (10.6.4) clients is Germany
best regards

Hi
We have experienced this too. It seems that it is the first time you try to enter an event that goes over 12 noon but before 1pm the no access error appears.
We have found a workround similar to yours in that we enter a time schedule say 10.30 to 13.30 and then can change it in the week view by dragging the graphic. If we try to amend the duration in the dialogue box the error occurs.
We are running 10.6.4 on the server and the client is at 10.5.8.

Web calendar for group only? Users cals only in iCal?

I'm new to setting up iCal server and I've looked through my *Mac OS X Server Essentials* book as well as iCalService_Admin_v10.5_2ndEd.pdf and WebTechnologies_Adminv10.5.pdf and how the iCal service, the iCal application and the web calendar all interact remains a little murky for me.
Here's my understanding so far:
iCal the application on the OS X client computer is used to manage a single user's calendar. iCal can also be used to manage another user's calender if so set up.
The web calendar found at http://domain/groups/groupname/calendar/ is used to manage a group's calendar.
iCal the application can subscribe Read-Only to the group's calendar.
This means to me that a user's calendar is not viewable on the web, the web calendar is only for group calendaring, and group calendar management is only done via the web not iCal, is this true?

I have only recently made my web calendars work, but have had several odd problems when trying to use both the web calendar and iCal to edit and view the same group calendar.
*What is the proper way to access a group calendar in the iCal client?*
Is it this?

Using my home Mac as a server

I would like to put my pictures on the web so that certain clients can view their photos with password. I photograph weddings and would prefer to make html slide shows of their wedding pictures so that they can view them anywhere with any computer. I would like the setup to be as simple and reliable as possible. I have an additional 250GB drive in the Mac that I wish to use as the storage of individual folders that contain the slide shows. If it would help I can get a dedicated 2nd Mac as the server if necessary. I was told that I would need a static IP address and some kind of software. I thought I could use file sharing on my computer but after reading numerous articles over the net, I am quite confused as to what I need. All I want to post is photo galleries that have about 600 to 700 pictures each that a client can view and that I can delete some or all of them after 30 days to be replaced by new ones. What software, hardware, etc. would be necessary to do this. Any suggestions welcome.

OSX server or client are both capable of handling this, as long as you have enough disk space. A site like this would probably only require a simple script on the server, server side includes (.shtml) and some javascript in the page itself. Frequently changing directories with basic authentication would probably best be done with .htaccess files. It isn't brain surgery, but there are reasons that people can make a living doing this kind of work.
A static IP would be needed so that when the users aim their browser at your site, they're not aiming at a moving target. Be aware that many/most/all ISPs that have home broadband networks block web servers.
Try turning on the web sharing, and try making one of these sites and see what comes of it. One cavaet that I see coming, is that the names of the images will probably vary from one shoot to the next, so that's why I was thinking that a server script to list the the image names and put them into a javascript array for the page to use to call for the different images.

How can I sync my calendar form mac to iPhone without having to use iCloud?

There used to an option called sync calendar under the summary of your iPhone on iTunes, but I could no longer find that option. I wouldn't really want to sync my calendar using iCloud because my calendar on iCloud is blank and I don't really want to retype everything again. Or is there any way I can sync my current calendar on mac to the one on iCloud?

I read the title. It has nothing to do with what the OP is really wants.
When replying in a helpful manner, one needs to read everything (the title and the entire post) and make an attempt to understand what they want.
The OP does not want to lose the library on the computer.
I will repeat it for you...
"I wouldn't really want to sync my calendar using iCloud because my calendar on iCloud is blank and I don't really want to retype everything again."
This line shows the OP does not understand how it works and also shows that the thread title is not really what the OP wants.
gumsie wrote:
The post I've linked to tells him how to use a server to do it. Read that entire post too.
Why would the OP use a server when the OP is fine using iCloud to sync?
Indeed, the OP asks (in the same post even) how to sync using iCloud (which is in direct conflict with the thread title).
"is there any way I can sync my current calendar on mac to the one on iCloud?"
PNWD!

Hello,
I'm so new to this, I have a Mac Xserve with Mac OS X Server, I successfully enabled the following services and all up and running smoothly according to the criteria of my company:
ical Server, ichat Server, Web Server, MySQL, Podcast Producers Server, Mail Server, Wiki, and Blog Server. http://www.macsrv.cmrdi.sci.eg
I need to know how to edit the main template of the wiki and blog server (start page) to be able to add our company logo and so....
otherwise, I need to know if I can ser Unicode on it to add RTL languages like Arabic, I know I can type Arabic in the topics and there is not problems with this.
Regards

Start by reading this: http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/ExtendingYour_WikiServer.pdf
You will create a custom theme. Copy all the .xsl files into your theme folder. Modify default.xsl for most of the sub-level pages. Modify group_listing.xsl for /groups and /users pages. Your server index page is located in Library\WebServer\Documents. Most of what you want to do can probably be done through CSS.
Once your custom theme is finished set it as the default in the Admin Panel.

How to consume the Calendar Exception details from Project Server 2013 to an SSRS report using PSI ?

Hello,
Can anyone guide me how to access the calendar exception details from Project Server using PSI?
I need to extract calendar details of enterprise resources , like exception name, exception type, exception start date and exception end date into my SSRS report hosted in SharePoint 2013 and 2010.
I would be helpful if I can get a sample of this. I have read through many PSI documents in fact still going through ,what PSI does and doesn't , PSI methods etc. from Project Server SDK and MSDN . Moreover, I
am a beginner in .NET programming. I am confused and have lots of questions in my mind, like which PSI service should be used in my report(is it just Calendar.svc), can we pull the details as XML type data source my SSRS report ,are
there any other configuration settings apart from " setting up an event handler by installing an event handler assembly on each Project Server computer in the SharePoint farm, and then configuring the event handler
for the Project Web App instance by using the Project Server Settings page in the General Application Settings of SharePoint Central Administration" (as per prerequisites for PSI in SDK) , how can I implement authentication settings
-(when user with proper SharePoint permission
can accesses the SSRS report )
Kindly bear with me if my questions are not appropriate .
Please do guide me, and .
Thanks in Advance!!

Hi Brendan,
Project server reporting database doesn't contain the calendar info. The only supported way to use the PSI to read the calendar info from Published database.
