[SOLVED] Error when trying to deploy a zimlet with 1482

[Zoltan67]

Hi,

I was trying to deploy a zimlet of our own under ZDesktop latest release (1.0 RC1 build 1482), and it failed, whereas it used to work with previous version (if we upgrade a 1433 release on which the zimlet was installed, it worked). We run on Windows XP SP3

Here is the error message we get:

com.zimbra.common.soap.SoapFaultException: invalid password: zimbra

here is the command we used to deploy the zimlet:

(in folder c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\Zimbra\zdesktop\)
.\jre\bin\java -cp jetty\lib\log4j-1.2.8.jar;jetty\common\lib\commons-httpclient-3.0.jar;jetty\common\lib\mail.jar;jetty\common\lib\commons-logging.jar;jetty\common\lib\commons-codec-1.3.jar;jetty\common\lib\json.jar;jetty\common\lib\dom4j-1.5.jar;jetty\common\lib\zimbracommon.jar;jetty\webapps\service\WEB-INF\lib\zimbrastore.jar -Dzimbra.config=conf\localconfig.xml com.zimbra.cs.zimlet.ZimletUtil deploy zimlets\com_zimbra_calviewer.zip

until we have a way of injecting zimlet through ui, you can do this:

- open conf/localconfig.xml
- search for this key: zdesktop_installation_key
- duplicate the above key and rename ***the duplicate** to "zimbra_ldap_password"
- save the file and restart ZD (you have to shutdown the backend service and restart it)

for example, you should have these lines in conf/localconfig.xml after the editing:

<key name="zdesktop_installation_key">
<value>xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx</value>
</key>
<key name="zimbra_ldap_password">
<value>xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx</value>
</key>

Thanks, this is working, but this is clearly not the solution I expected... what we were doing was the automatic deployment of Zimlets to users having Zimbra Desktop (users with a laptop). Now it becomes harder because we need to be sure the config file has already been modified before deploying it... Well my question is answered, so I'll mark this thread as SOLVED, but anyway, I hope another solution for deploying Zimlets through UI will soon be available

A whole new zimlet ecosystem is planned. We are committed to the zimlet architecture and want to empower users to develop/contribute/deploy all kinds of zimlets for Desktop use.

The current backdoor is there to tie you over.
