I tested it today. I have an account that never used z-push and all worked fine. Hooked them up and problems started. Switch off the z-push server and all is ok

I have been looking at this for a while to try to understand if it is something that can be influenced. So far, I think it might be a factor of how many SOAP requests a client makes. I see the problem occur more often if I am syncing multiple devices to my zimbra account than I do if only syncing a single device.
But I am not entirely convinced it is not a web client issue. Generally when I see the problem in my browser (chrome) if I click on the next email it is rendered in plain text - not HTML which is my default. Pressing the refresh on the browser returns the browser to HTML display mode again.
That being said - I have discovered a way to significantly reduce the number of soap requests for the setup of each sync session - particularly if you use a lot of shared folders.
If you would like to test it, please PM me.
Hi all!
As an exercise, and to test if i could get email sync with my new GS3, i tried to install Z-Push 2.0 RC with the appropriate SVN version of the zimbra backend (zpush-2-beta branch).
I had the following error:
Class BackendSearchZimbra contains 1 abstract method and must therefore be declared abstract or implement the remaining methods (ISearchProvider::TerminateSearch)
So I modified the zimbra.php file at line 9615 to add the following:
public function TerminateSearch($pid) {
return true;
}
It solved the problem (well, it's an empty function ...) and email, contacts and calendar now works on my GS3 (including HTML messages) with Z-Push 2.0 RC.
I have a question about contact groups created in Zimbra: are they synced with devices? I tried with iPhone, iPad and an Android 4.0 phone, but I did not find the groups in the address book.
I was wondering if there were any Apache settings recommendations for z-push backend for Zimbra.
You know some settings like (which I randomly copy-and-paste from the internet):
and with some explanations why you advice these values. Our main concern is not to run out of memory.Code:StartServers 40
MinSpareServers 30
MaxSpareServers 50
MaxClients 240
MaxRequestsPerChild 10000
Timeout 30
KeepAliveTimeout 3
Thank you very much.
Only Apple devices will show contact groups - assuming you do not disable them in the config - or filter them out using SmartFolders or XML files.
When you open your Contacts app on the iPxxx device - it most likely defaults to "All Contacts" at the top of the screen - with a <Groups] button to the left. If you click the <Groups] button, it should show you the list of contact folders, and allow you to select individual groups.
As of yet - no other phones support this functionality. In the backend code - it is enabled by identifying the useragent as containing "Apple".
I am not aware of anything that should be different for zimbra over and above what would work for any other backend.
I would suggest you pose the question on the z-push forum for guidance from the z-push developers - and feel free to post back their answer here as it might help other users.
The final version of Z-Push 2.0 is out. It seems to work smoothly with the last revision of the zimbra backend 2.0-alpha2 branch (rev 136).
Thanks for the feedback. I am sure you already are - but just to be sure you should be using the beta branch SourceForge.net Repository - [zimbrabackend] Index of /zimbra-backend/branches/z-push-2-beta
It still needs some tidy up and a bunch of debugs removed but it is getting there.
