Hello @admin_rost,

Currently, there is no plan for localizing Carbonio CE to Ukraine.

I would like to implement your product instead of Zimbra 8.7 on Zimbra Carbonio CE.

Are there any ways to set the Ukraine localization separately?

Is it possible to create a separate branch with access for translation from English into Ukrainian?
There are people willing to do translations 🙂

@arman there is a minor error on Step 3 of the new upgrade guide:

https://docs.zextras.com/carbonio-ce/html/release/upgrade.html

apt update && upgrade --full-upgrade

There is missing the second "apt"... it should be like this:

apt update && apt upgrade --full-upgrade

but it doesn't work for me... I get this message:

E: Sense full is not understood, try true or false.

How do I reset my PGPASSWORD as in PGPASSWORD=$DB_ADM_PWD carbonio-files-db-bootstrap carbonio_adm 127.0.0.1?

apt update && apt upgrade --fix-broken

For anyone else having issues with an incorrect or forgotten postgres password on upgrade here is how to reset it as root:

sudo -u postgres psql
postgres=# \password carbonio_adm
Enter new password for user "carbonio_adm":
Enter it again:
postgres=# \q

Note that when you first create your postgres (PG) password in the initial install the limit is 99 characters, but special characters like "=" will break the password in PG. As I used Bitwarden to generate the random password, I think that is what broke it for me. PG accepted the password and I stored it for future use, but when I tried to upgrade as per the above instructions I got an error. Most PG admins agree that a 16 character password is adequate (minus the bad special characters of course). See this post for more info.

Hi, I'm installing (struggling) with the Carbonio CE 23.12.0 followinf the instruction that errors (it's sic that the official documentation doesn't work!).

https://docs.zextras.com/carbonio-ce/html/install/scenarios/single-server-scenario.html

I've run all of the steps and arrived to the end of step 7. Beginning of Step 8 is the place where the stairs begun.

1. In the end of step 7 there is the command that unsets the DB_ADM_PWD that is then used in the step 8, so there is again need to set it again.

2. The commands for carbonio db bootstrap files (the first three are missing / for the line break).

3. Running the DB bootstrap files results errors:

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

Database: 127.0.0.1:5432 user carbonio_adm

Check postgres connection: OK

Error connecting to Consul agent: Error loading token file: open /etc/carbonio/files-db/service-discover/token: no such file or directory

NOTICE:  empty string is not a valid password, clearing password

CREATE ROLE

CREATE DATABASE

====================================================

====================================================

PGPASSWORD="password" carbonio-files-db-bootstrap carbonio_adm 127.0.0.1

Database: 127.0.0.1:5432 user carbonio_adm

Check postgres connection: OK

Current version is: .

Database already initialized! Quitting

root@mail2:/home/marcink# PGPASSWORD="password" carbonio-tasks-db-bootstrap carbonio_adm 127.0.0.1

Database: 127.0.0.1:5432 user carbonio_adm

Check postgres connection: OK

Error connecting to Consul agent: Error loading token file: open /etc/carbonio/tasks-db/service-discover/token: no such file or directory

NOTICE:  empty string is not a valid password, clearing password

CREATE ROLE

CREATE DATABASE

====================================================

carbonio-tasks-db database initialized successfully!

====================================================

4. End the last thing: pending-setups -a command returns also an error claiming that the carbonio-message-dispatcher-db is not installed which is trully installed.

Insert the cluster credential password:

 

Executing all setup scripts...

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Executing /etc/zextras/pending-setups.d/carbonio-message-dispatcher.sh

Insert the cluster credential password:

Config entry written: service-intentions/carbonio-message-dispatcher-xmpp

Carbonio Message Dispatcher database password not found.

Please install carbonio-message-dispatcher-db and run carbonio-message-dispatcher-db-bootstrap command.

Script for Message Dispatcher terminated with error

Setup script failed, keeping it

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------root@mail2:/home/marcink# apt install carbonio-message-dispatcher-db

Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done

carbonio-message-dispatcher-db is already the newest version (0.2.0-1ubuntu).

 

Where is the current and correct installation instruction to follow to install the carbonio ce?!

this works, at lest allows to setup the server. It's a petty that the official site doesn't contain this kind of indications.

@admin_rost there are none, AFAIK, but if you know someone who can help in the translation, please refer him/her to https://docs.zextras.com/carbonio-ce/html/basics/general.html#volunteer-translators for directions

I just did an upgrade and probably missed a part. Now I can't login through the web-ui either the user part of the admin part.

 

All I get is this error on the login page: "The authentication policy needs more steps: please contact your administrator for more information"

 

What did I miss?

 

Still on Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS even though there are newer versions.

Carbonio Release 24.1.0
