Installation CalDAV and CardDAV with Open-Xchange (Beta)

OXtender for Mac OS X will be discontinued due to the fact that the latest version of Apple OS X “Lion” will no longer support Apple SyncServices, which synchronization with OXtender for Mac OS X was based on. To support future synchronization between Open-Xchange Server and Mac OS X application, Open-Xchange implements synchronization functionality that will be using CalDAV and CardDAV protocols.

The new synchronization protocols are available for all customers with a valid Open-Xchange license of Open-Xchange Server Edition and Open- Xchange Hosting Edition.

Please note: As of today the Open-Xchange CalDAV and CardDAV support is „Beta“ and will be continuously enhanced. With this release only the native OS X applications are supported. The support for other clients e.g. Thunderbird is planned for a future releases. The CardDAV support only synchronizes one address book. Currently the global address book plus the user’s private address book will get merged into one address book on the OS X device.

Open-Xchange is eagerly interested in learning about your tests, specifically in your specific environment. Please provide us with your feedback via our Public Bugzilla OX6 Server Edition

User Guide and Configuration

Please find further information regarding the configuration at the User Guide

Preparation

Please edit your file /etc/apache2/ox6.conf so that the existing configuration for ox as well as the new configuration for CalDAV and CardDav are placed inside a virtual host .

This is an example where MYSERVER.TLD is the domain-name of the ox-server:

  $ vi /etc/apache2/ox6.conf 
  NameVirtualHost *:80
  <VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName dav.MYSERVER.TLD
   ErrorLog /tmp/dav.err.log
   TransferLog /tmp/dav.access.log
   <Proxy />
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all
   </Proxy>
   ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/servlet/dav/ smax=0 ttl=60 retry=5
  </VirtualHost>
  <VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName MYSERVER.TLD
  <Location /ox6>
       # Expires (via ExpiresByType to override global settings)
       ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType text/xml "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType text/x-js "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 6 months"
       ExpiresDefault "access plus 6 months"
       Header append Cache-Control "private"
       Header unset Last-Modified
       Header unset Vary
       # Strip version
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteRule v=\w+/(.+) $1 [L]
       # Turn off ETag
       Header unset ETag
       FileETag None
  </Location>
  <Location /ox6/ox.html>
       ExpiresByType text/html "now"
       ExpiresDefault "now"
       Header unset Last-Modified
       Header set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"
       # Turn off ETag
       Header unset ETag
       FileETag None
  </Location>
  <Location /ox6/index.html>
       ExpiresByType text/html "now"
       ExpiresDefault "now"
       Header unset Last-Modified
       Header set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"
       # Turn off ETag
       Header unset ETag
       FileETag None
  </Location>
  <Location /ajax>
  SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
  </Location>
  </VirtualHost>
