Happy it is working for you

I'll never more take an LG phone.
My P920 with android 2.3.5 is not campatible because MS exchange connection is personalized from LG.

I find it hard to believe that it will not work at all. It may be that the LG client REQUIRES provisioning to be turned on - some newer clients do require it - and I saw in your config.php you have it turned off.
You could try turning on PROVISIONING and setting LOOSE_PROVISIONNG to false first, and if that doesn't work try with it set to true.

Any one has any old nokia phones (non windows based ones) working with Zpush ?

Any one has any old nokia phones (non windows based ones) working with Zpush ?

I have used a Nokia E-71 with the Mail For Exchange application installed - versions 3.00.50 and 3.00.75 - I believe the E series phones all had either an Exchange capable client - or you could install Mail For Exchange on them. Not sure about other ones. N-series would probably work too I would expect.

i believe its a e-71 my manager has . .but the mail client is giving me beans... it says updating.. and dosnt download any mail

Hi,

We are using release 55 of zimbra backend and zimbra server v8.

We are able to see mails from everyone except one unique user. Whenever that user sends email we are not able to see it on only ios devices (PS. The emails are sent from apple mail from mac osx).

Below are the headers from the email

Hi,

For support requests, please login to SourceForge and open a ticket at Z-Push Zimbra Backend / Support Requests

That being said - there is a fix in the latest Code repository version on SourceForge (55.9 as of now) that handles the preview of some strange emails on Ipxxx devices. Please try that to see if it helps, and open a ticket if not.

Release 56 of the z-push zimbra backend has been uploaded to SourceForge (https://sourceforge.net/projects/zimbrabackend/)

NEW FOR RELEASE 56 - Use with z-push 2.0.7 or later

NEW FOR RELEASE 56 - An issue has been identified with the list sorting method utilized
by z-push in conjunction with zimbra. The basic sort method used in the diffstate.php 
module (which Zimbra backend utilizes) is a numeric comparison. While this works fine 
for a zimbra user with no shared folders - it does not work once the user has folder
shares in their sync floder list. Zimbra precedes the message IDs from shared folders with
the GUID of the sharing user. This GUID is non-numeric - so the sorting breaks down. This
can result in duplication of appointments/contacts/tasks when used in conjunction with
virtual folders on devices that need to virtually include all items into a single calendar/
contact list/task list. Devices that support multiple folders (such as iPxxx devices) are
not affected. Mail folders are unaffected as they all get synched individually. The 
solution for this is to allow the sorting method to be overridden. I have requested a 
change in z-push to allow this. In the meantime, a change is needed to the baseline
/lib/default/diffbackend/diffstate.php in the function RowCmp() to allow the sorting to 
work correctly. The function should be changed as follows :-

    static public function RowCmp($a, $b) {
        // TODO implement different comparing functions
// VJS commenting out standard comparison method and 
//     using string compare instead
//        return $a["id"] < $b["id"] ? 1 : -1;
        return strcmp( $a["id"], $b["id"] ) < 0 ? 1 : -1;

    }

Hopefully, z-push will adopt a suggested fix for this I have proposed, and this will not
be an issue in future. But until that time, this change will need to be reapplied after
every z-push upgrade.



Changes Made To Revision 56: 

These changes are for the z-push-2 version ONLY
The z-push-1 and as12.1 versions are still at Revision 54

 - Added function fixMS to handle json_decode "floated" millisecond timestamps
 - Added handling for native Multiple Task folders for Apple devices - a new
   switch has been defined for config.php - ZIMBRA_DISABLE_MULTI_TASK_LISTS -
   see INSTALL for details
 - Fix output of Exceptions to Recurring Appointments by using the new z-push-2
   SyncAppointmentException class and fixing the exceptionstarttime
 - Added handling of incoming Appointment Exceptions, including attendees
 - Fix iPxxx "preview" of HTML-only email showing "this message has no content"
 - Output Exception DTstamp instead of overall Appt DTstamp for exceptions
 - Implemented ResolveRecipients - but fix needed in z-push-2 to allow this 
   to function correctly. This has been reported upstream.
 - CALDAV created appointments do not seem to set OrganizerName and 
   OrganizerEmail. Check for the contents of both before building SOAP message
   when modifying an appointment.
 - Output lastverbexecuted - zimbra does not save sequence of verbs - just flags
   so replied is given precedence over forwarded (same as GUI)
 - Code cleanup - use $zimbraFolderId instead of overwriting $folderid
 - Only output exceptions array on appointment if not empty
 - After InitializePermanentStorage - check that a valid StateObject is returned
   and if not, delay and re-read, to allow for limited file contention between
   threads from the same device
 - After InitializePermanentStorage - make sure _cachedMessageLists is an array
 - Change in GetFolder to prevent fully shared (linked) accounts/folders from  
   being considered as special Mail folders (Inbox/Trash/Drafts/Sent) 
 - Fix in MeetingResponse to return empty string for meeting decline 
 - Added CustomRowCmp function in hope that z-push might adopt suggestion

Hi at all,

I have a Release 6.0.10_GA_2692.UBUNTU8_64 UBUNTU8_64 FOSS edition running and I do not get any z-push 2 release operationally.
I allways see the same error.

z-push.log

29/04/2013 22:53:47 [ 2010] [ERROR] [admin] LoopDetection->ProcessLoopDetectionPreviousConnectionFailed(): Command 'Sync' at 29/04/2013 22:45:58 with pid '2004' terminated unexpectedly or is still running.
29/04/2013 22:53:47 [ 2010] [ERROR] [admin] Please check your logs for this PID and errors like PHP-Fatals or Apache segmentation faults and report your results to the Z-Push dev team.

Apache2 error.log

[Mon Apr 29 22:53:47 2013] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function GetContentClass() on a non-object in /var/www/z-push/backend/zimbra/zimbra.php on line 3744

PHP version is 5.3.3 on CentOS 6.3 (Z-Push Server)

After the first sync (it works) nothing is synced anymore.
Does anyone have a suggestion? Is my Zimbra too old?

Thanks in advance.

Hi liverpoolfcfan, last week I updated from Zpush 1.5 + backend v.52.1 to Zpush 2.0.7 + backend v.55, then today I upgraded to the new v.56 of the backend. Everything ran smoothly, and all the smartphones synced without problems with the new version.
However in z-push-error.log I found three similar errors, that I want to report for your interest:

25/04/2013 21:38:31 [16820] [ERROR] [m.r] LoopDetection->ProcessLoopDetectionPreviousConnectionFailed(): Command 'FolderSync' at 25/04/2013 21:20:36 with pid '16999' terminated unexpectedly or is still running.25/04/2013 21:38:31 [16820] [ERROR] [m.r] Please check your logs for this PID and errors like PHP-Fatals or Apache segmentation faults and report your results to the Z-Push dev team.

29/04/2013 09:11:35 [23423] [ERROR] [r.a] LoopDetection->ProcessLoopDetectionPreviousConnectionFailed(): Command 'Sync' at 29/04/2013 08:59:40 with pid '24478' terminated unexpectedly or is still running.

So in apache's error_log I found:

[Thu Apr 25 21:20:36 2013] [error] [client ] PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function GetCachedMessageLists() on a non-object in /srv/www/htdocs/z-push/backend/zimbra/zimbra.php on line 1029

And nothing related to the error on 26/04.
