Hi @all,

Good evening.

We are very glad and thankful to you for your proactive responses during each new release to make our every step confident and useful for this community.

You can find all the details related to the new installation or up-gradation of the existing system to the new release on our official documentation page.

But to make your ways a little bit easier, we always try our best. So bear with me:

 

For clean installation:

Follow our official documentation.
You may also find this post or this video useful.

 

For Up-gradation:

Do followings:

apt clean
apt update

apt upgrade

[You have successfully upgraded your system]

 

Note: Take a close at the list of packages that are going to be upgraded in this process.
If it has any DB(-db) package in this list, then you need to bootstrap the corresponding Database by running:

PGPASSWORD=DB_ADM_PWD carbonio-files-db-bootstrap carbonio_adm 127.0.0.1

PGPASSWORD=DB_ADM_PWD carbonio-tasks-db-bootstrap carbonio_adm 127.0.0.1

 

Finally, run:

pending-setups -a

su - zextras
zmcontrol restart

 

 

Special case:

Some of you might have done this far but are still unable to access the admin panel. So the next part is useful for you. Now we have to install the below-mentioned packages to access our brand-new and dynamic admin panel:

 

apt install carbonio-admin-ui carbonio-admin-console-ui -y

 

Restart your services

 

su - zextras
zmcontrol restart

 

[With this, you have successfully installed the necessary resources to access the new admin panel.
As these packages are included in step -3 of the official documentation, it will not be an issue for the new installation.

 

I thought this information would be helpful to you guys.

 

That's all.

 

Thanks again for being with us.

 

Regards,
Sharif

Hi,

Sorry to hear that.

I can see you are using rc channel instead of the release.

Could you please use release instead of rc and let us know the result?

Try using below steps to add release in your repository:

Fill out the form to get the public repo address and instructions

Thanks

Sharif

Hi,

Glad to hear that it is solved.

BTW, with this release (22.10.0) we have launched our brand new admin panel which can be accessed via port 6071.
i.e.
https://mail.example.com:6071/login

Anyways, thank you so much for your effort to be with us, guide us and help us to improve.

Thanks and regards,

Sharif

Hi Zextras Team,

I have spent a lot of time troubleshooting, but it was not necessary.

The official installation document of Carbonio CE mentions the following under Step 3:
Single-Server Installation — Zextras Carbonio CE Documentation

==QUOTE==
After the successful package installation, you can check that all Carbonio CE services are running, by using
# systemctl status carbonio-*

If any service is in failed status, restart it. Probably one of the Carbonio Monitoring exporters will not correctly start, so you will need to run
# systemctl restart carbonio-prometheus-nginx-exporter.service
==END QUOTE==

This step fails, because NGINX is not running. 
[root@mail ~]# netstat -tulpen
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State User Inode PID/Program name
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:9100 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 210 58177 7257/carbonio-prome
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:9104 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 210 63450 8754/carbonio-prome
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:9330 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 210 67058 8837/carbonio-prome
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 0 26142 1123/sshd
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:5432 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 26 55421 7046/postmaster
udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:323 0.0.0.0:* 0 24939 1068/chronyd
[root@mail ~]#

Only after running "carbonio-bootstrap" (the next step) NGINX will be configured and started.
The carbonio-prometheus-nginx-exporter can be stated afterwards.

Another issue that needs correction is under Security: Security — Zextras Carbonio CE Documentation
Step 1 describes truncating the certificate and private key into commercial_ca.cert, which is wrong.
This step is regarding bundling the CA certificates (Root CA + Intermediate CA) into one file (“Full Chain CA”)

==QUOTE==
Now, go to /opt/zextras/ssl/carbonio/commercial/ and merge the two certificates into a single one:
# cat commercial.crt commercial.key > commercial_ca.crt
==END QUOTE==

Can a moderator review and correct the documentation ? Thank you.

Hi @gme83 and sorry for the very late reply, for some reasons your post didn't show up in my recent posts.

I will review your comments together with my colleagues and fix the docs asap, then inform you. 

Thank you for your comments!

Stefano

Hi Zextras Team,

When I was installing the SRV1 server (in Four Nodes Scenario), when I got to the TimeZone edit step I got an error and got thrown out like below. Is the Carbonio installer a problem? Because I didn't get this error on my previous 6 Nodes install.

Common configuration

1) Hostname: ldap...
2) Ldap master host: ldap...
3) Ldap port: 389
4) Ldap Admin password: set
5) Secure interprocess communications: no
6) TimeZone: America/Los_Angeles
7) IP Mode: ipv4
8) Default SSL digest: sha256

Select, or 'r' for previous menu [r] 6

Can't call method "tzid" on an undefined value at /opt/zextras/libexec/zmsetup.pl line 2990, <> line 2.
