Problem with adding contacts from GAL to address book

[nyogtha]

Hi. I have recently set up a Zimbra-server (6.01 64-bit on Ubuntu) for my company. We are in the process of moving our old accounts over to the new system and I use our old LDAP-server as a GAL. Lookups in GAL work like they should, my problem appears when I try to copy/import a contact from GAL into my local address book. When I right click the GAL-contact and select "Add to contacts", I get a new window with all the GAL-info and everything looks correct. I can not, however, save the contact, as it appears Zimbra thinks all the fields are empty. If I change the information in one of the fields, I can then save the contact, but only the information I changed is saved. So if I try to add a contact from GAL, the Save option is greyed out until I change something, and then only that field gets saved to my address book.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes. I am using the same thing - Zimbra Web Client 6.0.1, and I am observing the same problem: GAL lookup works fine, but when I try to add to contacts, it presents a blank contact.

Did you find a solution? I have just upgraded to 6.02 and I still have the same problem.
