Topic: Roundcube with Calendar

Hello Team,

I have recently implemented iRedMail. Trying to make Roundcube with Calendar working.
Found the plugin Webcalendar and tried to implement it by following the steps mentioned in http://mail4us.net/myroundcube/
modified the file roundcube/config/main.inc.php and added a line as below.
$rcmail_config['plugins'] = array('webcalendar')
Saved the settings and rebooted the machine.
However, I can not see the calendar after logging on to the mailbox.
Is there anything I am missing? or is there any other Calendar plugin available to add to RoundCube?

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Best Regards
Roopesh

Re: Roundcube with Calendar

thanks Very much.
We followed the below steps to install Calendar plugin.
1) Downloaded and Copied the Calendar folder under roundcube plugin directory
2) Added a new line to /var/www/roundcube/config/main.inc.php
$rcmail_config['plugins'] = array('calendar')
3) renamed /roundcube/plugin/calendar/config/config.inc.php.dist to config.inc.php
4)Ran the mysql.sql file to add a table called "Events" inside roundcubemail database.
5) Renamed SQL folder to SQL-old
6) Rebooted the machine.

Still I can not see calendar folder when I logon to the mailbox.
Am I missing something? or any additional steps I need to perform to get access to the Calendar?

Best REgards

Re: Roundcube with Calendar

Maybe you can try Sogo groupware: http://www.scalableogo.org/tour/screenshots.html
There's a simple tutorial in FAQ page: http://www.iredmail.org/faq.html (Search sogo in this page)

Re: Roundcube with Calendar

Thanks Zang for your suggestion.
From different forums we found that roundcube version 0.2 doesnt support plugins. So we upgraded to 0.3.1 and the solutiions suggested by SHAKE worked. Thanks SHAKE for the suggestion.
I can see the Calendar option in the mailbox, however, when I click on the calendar or try to post any event I get the following error:
Server Error OK!
After loggin out and loging in we can t see any entry in the calendar.
Any suggestions?

I tested sogo and found some features lacking.  For example, no email reminders and some context menu items doesn't work.   It is not mature enough yet.   As for roundcube, install webcalendar will take a bit of work.   I just wish that roundcube has email alias support or group contacts.

Re: Roundcube with Calendar

This issue has been resolved by adding  following code to roundcube-0.3.1/program/include/rcube_shared.inc file

if (!function_exists('json_encode'))
{
  function json_encode($a=false)
  {
    if (is_null($a)) return 'null';
    if ($a === false) return 'false';
    if ($a === true) return 'true';
    if (is_scalar($a))
    {
      if (is_float($a))
      {
        // Always use "." for floats.
        return floatval(str_replace(",", ".", strval($a)));
      }

      if (is_string($a))
      {
        static $jsonReplaces = array(array("\\", "/", "\n", "\t", "\r", "\b", "\f", '"'), array('\\\\', '\\/', '\\n', '\\t', '\\r', '\\b', '\\f', '\"'));
        return '"' . str_replace($jsonReplaces[0], $jsonReplaces[1], $a) . '"';
      }
      else
        return $a;
    }
    $isList = true;
    for ($i = 0, reset($a); $i < count($a); $i++, next($a))
    {
      if (key($a) !== $i)
      {
        $isList = false;
        break;
      }
    }
    $result = array();
    if ($isList)
    {
      foreach ($a as $v) $result[] = json_encode($v);
      return '[' . join(',', $result) . ']';
    }
    else
    {
      foreach ($a as $k => $v) $result[] = json_encode($k).':'.json_encode($v);
      return '{' . join(',', $result) . '}';
    }
  }
}

Hope this helps someone.
