Hi could anyone help me to configure z-push on IPSConfig 3? Z-Push is a free, opensource push-imap project. http://z-push.sourceforge.net/soswp/ cheers!
I'm using z-push on my ISPconfig3 servers. Let me know where you got stuck with the setup. It's really easy to do so, that I would not know what your problem is.
Hi Edge, If you're willing to do so. Please provide the information here how you did it. I think lots of users here (including myself) are interested in your solution.
This install of Z-Push is on a "The Perfect Server - Debian Lenny (Debian 5.0) [ISPConfig 3]" setup I'm using z-push on my 1st website of the server (client1 / web1) You will need to change the "/var/clients/client1/web1/web/" part to your own settings if different. For z-push to work you will need to have imap enabled for the user. A quote from a famous person: -- Lets get started with installing z-push. -- Make sure that you are doing this as su user (root) Also make sure that you are using the latest version of z-push. More info @ http://z-push.sourceforge.net/soswp/index.php?pages_id=39&t=Download At time of writing this "howto" it was version z-push-1.3RC2 * Download, un-tar and move directory 1) cd /tmp 2) wget http://download.berlios.de/z-push/z-push-1.3RC2.tar.gz 3) tar zxf z-push-1.3RC2.tar.gz 4) mv z-push /var/clients/client1/web1/web/ * Edit the z-push/config.php file. 5) cd /var/clients/client1/web1/web/z-push 6) nano config.php - Make sure that date_default_timezone_set (line 14) is set to your time zone - Set $BACKEND_PROVIDER to BackendIMAP (line 49) * Remove the file /backend/ics.php 7) rm /var/clients/client1/web1/web/z-push/backend/ics.php * Make sure that directory z-push/state is writable for your webserver 8) chmod 777 /var/clients/client1/web1/web/z-push/state * Create a .htaccess file 9) nano .htaccess And add this to it. You can also add the above to the Apache directives in ISPconfig3 * Add Alias /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync /var/clients/client1/web1/web/z-push/index.php to your httpd.conf 10) cd /etc/apache2/ 11) nano httpd.conf At the end of httpd.conf add: * Restart Apache. 12) /etc/init.d/apache2 restart * Set website PHP mode to: Mod-PHP 13) Login to ISPconfig3 and go the the tab Sites > Domain. Now select the website that you are installing z-push to, and set PHP to Mod-PHP. When done click Save. Now go to www.your-website.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync, and with a bit of luck you will get a login popup screen. Use the email address and password from a IMAP user account. After this you will get an error: This error is correct, as you are accessing the z-push by web browser. All you need to do now is setup your mobile phone, and you've got push working! The URL of the server to use in your mobile phone will be www.your-website.com. You do not need to add z-push or Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync If you are having problems, than you can create a 'debug.txt' in the root directory of z-push. The debug.txt will log all activity, and give you a lot of extra info to find the problem(s). Let me know if you need more help. Best regards from Czech where I'm stuck in a hotel at the moment.
