[Sticky] Carbonio Community Edition - New Release

Thanks, please be sure to update us when we will have the possibility to test a zimbra -> carbonio migration path !

I want to install carbonioCE into Ubuntu 20.

I have got a mail from zextras.

according to that,you should install repository as following.

Add Carbonio CE Repository by executing
 

echo 'deb https://repo.zextras.io/rc/ubuntu bionic main' >>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/zextras.list

is it right repository? bionic? facalfossa? which is right?

After updating to this version and performing a reboot. it resulted in the web dashboard not being visible on my end.

while all services are running.

i am not sure where the error might be.

Thanks Arman!

I received new mail, and 

I have confirmed new repository.

Good job and thank you for your works! Your team is very great!

Can I use Files? How happy I am!

Do I need another node, as docs server?

Is it the same case as zextras docs installation?

(I still use virtual machine B as docs zerver for ZCS 9.0.0 OSE, machine A)

Where is new docs installer.tgz?

I wanna try to File feature immediately!

If possible, I want to select Fonts which I like on installation.

LibreOffice(lool) has too many fonts and those are almost unnecessary for me. 

Perhaps almost many people must feel like that.

If I cannot select fonts while installaton, may I rm -rf /opt/zimbra/docs/core/share/fonts/truetype/any.ttf manually after installation?

Why don't you guys pre-bundle the files module, and on installation ask the user if they wish to have it installed the same way zimbra does it.

i think it will make for a proper installer in that sense.

Hi @nitram

Carbonio CE has no installer, our idea is that you can install only the modules of Carbonio CE you need, by installing the packages you need. You would then rely on the repository also for the update and update Carbonio CE together with the operating system. With this approach, you get also the bonus of a smooth update process, which does not require anymore to download each time an installer.

I do not see any advantage in a big Carbonio installer that makes download everything, then asks what you want to install.

Hi @nitram, and thanks for your feedback.

As @stefanodavid wrote, The main reason behind this behavior is that Carbonio has been designed to be a multi-node/server/instance rather than a single server.

This is why the base package doesn't include all the modules, even because including all the modules as a package dependency makes it harder to move/uninstall specific services to other nodes without deeper knowledge about how the apt/yum works.
And this is why services use the service-mesh to communicate with each other rather than leverage the simple IP/DNS

Installing Files requires just adding to the "apt install carbonio-..." a couple of parameters: "apt install carbonio-... carbonio-files ....", and this makes you free to move Files to another server if you want to scale out.

In order to make it more user-friendly, we will release in the next future a couple of "one-liners" to make it easier to execute.
