GROUP-OFFICE FAQ
1. Why don't I see any modules like, email filesystem or scheduler?
You have to log in as an administrator and add them manually in the menu: administrator->modules
Then select the modules you wish to use.
2. Can I upload big files?
Yes you can. But some changes to php.ini are required for this:
post_max_size = ??M
file_uploads = On
upload_max_filesize = ??M
for apache's module config: conf.d/php.conf:
limit_request_body = ??
Also if the upload is taking a long time you should set the connection timeout from your webserver
to a higher value. For apache (httpd.conf):
Timeout ???
Also check for Proxy server limits
3. Why can't I connect to IMAP or POP-3 servers?
With some distro's (Redhat) you should add: '/notls' after the local_email_host property
in Group-Office.php for local e-mail. For external mail servers you should put it behind
the hostname part when you add an account.
4. Can I create folders and filters with POP-3 servers?
No you can't. Multiple folders and filters are only supported with IMAP servers.
5. Why do I get errors when I put single quotes in my input?
You have disabled magic_quotes_gpc in 'php.ini'
6. How can I browse the Group-Office files with samba or ftp?
Load install.php in a browser and change the create mode to '0777' if you understand what you are doing.
7. Why do I get this error when i use the e-mail module?
'Error: the imap extension for PHP is not installed' or
'Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imap_utf7_encode() in ../classes/imap.class.inc on line 33'
You didn't compile imap in PHP this is required for both IMAP and POP3.
8. Why do I instantly get an access denied error when I open the file manager?
Becasue the home directories from the users are not writable for the webserver. The home directories are located
in the path you entered where Group-Office should store files. The default setting is /home/groupoffice.
The directory groupoffice should be owned by the webserver user and the directory home should be
accessible (executable).
9. I have set up Group-Office to create Samba users. But how can I set up the samba shares?
Set up a share like below and each user will have access to it's private files. NOte that the Group-Office
permissions don't work with Samba.
BEWARE OF THE 777 FILE PERMISSIONS! They are needed so the webserver can read and write to them as well.
[groupoffice]
comment = Group-Office Home directory
writable = yes
valid users = %U
path = /usr/groupoffice/%U
force create mode = 0777
directory mode = 0777
10. After installation I can't change the ownership of Group-Office.php and it won't start. What can I do?
You can donwload Group-Office.php with FTP, delete it from the server and upload it back.
11. Why do I have to logon twice?
Logon to the same domain you entered in Group-Office.php
If you set the host in Group-Office.php to eg. 123.123.123.123 and you type www.example.com in the browser
you will have to logon twice. This is because after the first login the server creates a session for ip 123.123.123.123.
Group-Office redirects you to the startpage with url http://www.example.com/. There's no valid session for this url yet.
12. Why can' t I connect to Cyrus? It gives me a cross-realm error.
Try these settings:
allowplaintext:yes;
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
sasl_minimum_layer:0
13. I've put my config file in /etc/Group-Office/../.... But when I access Group-Office
with different URL's it sometimes doesn't find the config file.
You need to set: "UseCanonicalName On" in httpd.conf of apache. This way
it always uses the same name.
