Hi,

I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.10, with Evolution 2.24.2.
I have installed Brutus server and it is able to find my exchange 2007 server, however, on the client side I have a very annoying problem!
I installed brutus-keyring 0.9.31 and brutus 1.2.32, but the Server Type in the new account setup there is no new option as described in the documentation for Microsoft Exchange (Courtesy of Brutus).
I did find another forum in which another problem as the main issue but this popped up, however the solution was never shared. FYI this is the forum in question;
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=238186&page=4

I hope I am doing something totally stupid!

Thanks in advance,

Joe

I wouldn't say that ;-)

Your problem is that, for some reason, the e-b libraries are not in
their right position. Did you install from source or from deb?

Hi Jules,

Thanks for the quick response.

I installed from deb, I did think about using source after a few of hours of installing/uninstalling/rebooting......, but then dependencies popped up as soon as I tried it and by that point I had had enough and so posted to the mail list!

If you think source may be a better option then I'll sort the dep's and see what happens.

Many Thanks,

Joe

Those debs must be broken.

If you are going to install from source, then you most build the
distfiles target. That will give you debs that works.

Hi Jules,

So.... I am running Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) which the configure script is not setup for, so I had to tweak that a bit (not sure if what i did screwed it up for me later....). I then got the keyring installed (I think!) with only a couple of dependencies needed, and then went to make the evolution-brutus, which i had to install a shed load of deps (but it is a fresh install of Ubuntu so had no dev packages of anything installed yet).

If I 'make install' (after a 'make' of course) I get the missing keyring.h files and the need to install libdb4.6-dev (though it worked for me with 4.7) as described here in Ian's post, but i didn't get the other problems in this post...
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/orbit2/+bug/66560

If I 'make distfiles' as you originally suggested I get;
***@LLBarnard:~/Setups/evolution-brutus-1.2.32$ sudo make distfiles
/home/lee/Setups/evolution-brutus-1.2.32/release.sh Ubuntu%20Intrepid no_push
/bin/bash: /home/lee/Setups/evolution-brutus-1.2.32/release.sh: No such file or directory
make: *** [distfiles] Error 127

I grep'd for release.sh and it doesn't seem like it is supposed to be generated during configure or make, it is only referenced in the Makefile for distfiles, release and tarball options.....???

Any ideas? I really want this to work! :)

Thanks,

Joe

Yes, the required build packages are rather many I'm afraid.

You shouldn't do that. Go for the distfiles target instead. That
target will build debs for you. The install target will not put the
files in the right places.

The release.sh file is in the repository. Did you get the files from a
tar ball? You should use svn instead:

svn co http://svn.42tools.net/repos/evolution-brutus/trunk/
evolution-brutus

and for the keyring:

svn co http://svn.42tools.net/repos/brutus-keyring/trunk/ brutus-
keyring

Then, in all honesty, you should wait for the official release of
Brutus Server 2.0. You can get it from svn but there are still a few
places where it needs loving care.

Hi Jules,

OK, so i now have the Server Type appearing in Evolution - thank you very much for your support!

Next problem though....

When I attempt to log in through Evolution the brutus server gives the below log. Does BUG really mean bug?
I'm pretty sure I've got all the permissions correct on the user/server as per the README.
In Evolution it prompts for the users password and then gives the error 'Cannot get folder: Invalid operation on this store'.

Thanks,

Joe

No problem.

In all honesty, please wait just a few days. The new Brutus Server is
really solving a few fundamental problems with the old server. For
once, the problem below should be very much easier to get rid of using
the new server.

Brutus Server 2.0 does also not require any special permissions and
can be installed on anything as long as it is Windows 2K or later,
including XP and Vista.

2.0 It should be ready next week.

jules
