removing a calendar resource with a custom zimbraMailTransport

[jeffbearer]

I'm following the steps mentioned here for integrating Mailman, but updating for use with 7.0 by using Calendar Resources instead of accounts:

ZCS Mailman Integration - Zimbra :: Wiki

My Create Command is like this:

  $ZMPROV ccr $ADDRESS@$DOMAIN $(randompass) \
    displayName $ADDRESS \
    zimbraCalResType Equipment \
    zimbraMailTransport smtp:$MAILMAN_SERVER:25

however when I try to delete the CR it fails with this error.

ERROR: service.WRONG_HOST (operation sent to wrong host (you want 'null'))

I found a post on the forum from 2007 that suggests the problem is with the zimbraMailTransport not pointing to a real zimbra server.

operation sent to wrong host

I attempted modifying the CR to change the zimbraMailTransport back to my zimbra MTA but the error persists.

  $ZMPROV mcr $ADDRESS@$DOMAIN \
    zimbraMailTransport lmtp:$ZIMBRA_SERVER:7025

  $ZMPROV dcr $ADDRESS@$DOMAIN

Thoughts?

Does silence mean file a support ticket?

ZCS doesn't support mailman, so this is really not a supported scenario at this time. If you need to delete the resource, once you've set the zimbraMailTransport to a valid value, you're probably going to need to either wait for the account cache to expire (usually within about 15 minutes), or flush it manually and try to remove it:

zmprov fc account

Thanks the flush cache helped but it wasn't my only problem. The attribute that needs to be fixed is not zimbraMailTransport. but rather zimbraMailHost and the value should just be the hostname of your zimbra server.

This seems to do it:

zmprov mcr oldlist@domain zimbraMailHost <zimbra.host.com> zimbraAccountStatus closed
zmprov fc account
zmprov dcr oldlist@domain

Glad to hear you've got your issue resolved, but again note that what you're doing here in not a supported customization so beware of that. Note that https://bugzilla.zimbra.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6288 might make this possible in ZCS8.
