In a previous article, I described my experiences setting up Kolab for groupware functionality on Debian Wheezy. One of the problems I encountered was that of searching for resources when creating events, and it didn’t seem possible to start typing the name of a resource and to have the details autocompleted. Given that Kolab integrates Round

I have recently had the inclination to evaluate Free Software groupware solutions in more detail, and perhaps the first that came to mind was Kolab: a long-running project that provides a range of groupware functions including e-mail, calendaring, address books, task management, and various other functions for a fairly wide range of organisation

Yesterday I added a few mail aliases using Kolab admin interface and went to sleep. Today I noticed high CPU usage and quickly found that there is a small problem with pykolab 0.5.11-5 package.

This problem is already described [Bug 1560 - High CPU load and disk usage] and fixed in pykolab 0.5.12 package which is available for people using develo

I am using mainly Polish language so it is obvious that fairly quickly I encountered a problem with national characters in the subject line. Problem is not fixed in Debian packages (using Debian Wheezy x86_64 and Kolab Systems - Public Repositories) but luckily it is very easy to fix.

Almost four months ago I mentioned about moving personal data to the private server. Now it is reality as I have already started to move and organize personal data using Kolab groupware server. To check out basic functionality check out my previous blog post because I will only show you additional software I am using.

I have allready writen a post how to install kolab on centos 6.3. Today I decided to install kolab 3.0 for testing purposes on a CentOS vm. It was a Centos 6.3 clean installation, I decided to updated to Centos 6.4, and then try to install kolab 3.0.

This time things worked out of the box! No conflict, no error, excellent installation process!!!

Yesterday I experienced strange problem after Kolab 3 installation on Debian Wheezy as I couldn't add an initial user account using admin interface.

The very first thing to check if you are having this problem is to execute command:

# /usr/lib/mozldap/ldapsearch 
/usr/lib/mozldap/ldapsearch: error while loading shared libraries: libsoftokn3.so:

To me, eMail servers are one of the most complicated but most interesting things there are in the technical world. However, in the past I did some attempts to setup a full-featured eMail-Server environment using the Citadel and the Kolab 2.2.4 groupware software.

It worked, though for me neither of them felt “complete”.

Citadel, designed as a

Many people have asked us to provide Kolab packages for Ubuntu. Unfortunately, we have only 1,5 .deb packagers in our community. Still, the demand for these packages is huge. Some people even went so far and made the packages for Debian wheezy install on Ubuntu with some success.

In order to improve this situation and make these hacks unnecessary,
