I installed it on my home machine for testing and while everything will start up, I can't connect to http://localhost:20000/OpenGroupware/. I keep getting connection refused. I set it up with no security. I followed these directions: http://www.thievingmagpie.org/ogosuse82-en.html Any thoughts on where to start looking? Also, will this work on 64-bit SuSE?

Hi I'm evaluating too, but I'm 2 steps ahead of you ;-> I have followed the same guide and ran into the same problem! There are two things that I had to change: 1. I found the recommend (in green) access rights in pg_hba.conf was to strict and added host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust to make it work.. 2. Take a look in /var/log/ogo.log you are properbly missing som libraries.

What version of SuSE are you using? I just downloaded and installed OpenGroupWare on SuSE 9.1. Did you verify that it was running via ps and netstat or just from the init script? The script kept telling me it was started when it was not. The log, /var/log/ogo.log, complained about missing libraries. I had to make a bunch of symlinks to remedy this. Then it stopped logging errors but still wasn't running. I tried to run the command manually, "opengroupware:~> WOApps/OpenGroupware.woa/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-fd-nil/OpenGroupware" and got "Floating point exception". The beginning of the script said you had to do this for Redhat 9 and the OpenGroupware FAQ said you had to do if for distributions using NPTL: "opengroupware:~> export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1" Then running it manually worked great and I am able to connect via browser.

Do I need to be opengroupware user to start it all the time? Do I need to use the startup script all the time also? Kind of a pain....but hey, it's working. It also dies on me afterwards.

Jason - I managed to get it working!! Thanks for the help! I ran into a several other problems but managed to fix them. Boy am I proud of myself. Now, where is the documentation so that I can figure out how to get a user to use this? Thanks again, Tom On Tuesday 31 August 2004 09:50 am, Jason Joines wrote:

I'm still looking for documentation myself. I suggest newsgroups under gmane.comp.cms.opengroupware on news.gmane.org as a starting place. One of the threads there mentioned checking the Skyrix manuals at skyrix.com. Jason =================================

Thanks for the newsgroup info Jason. I'll check it out. I *think* I figured it out. OGW needs to have at least one user using the program for it to remain open and active....normally, I believe, this is root. While as root I created a user tom. I then logged in to the localhost:20000, in another browser window, and boom! up popped a username and password request. I logged in as tom and created a calendar appt. I included root on the appt and when I refreshed root, there was the appt. This is all taking place on my little home system, but I'm going to try to see what happens when I use my laptop, with a different IP, to connect while OGW is running. I imagine this should work. One thing that I had to do was to change the owner properties of the documents folder under the OGW directory. I can't remember the exact structure, but it was set as root:root and after I made it opengroupware:skyrix, everything worked. I hope this might help you also. Once I can get another user connected (like my laptop) I'm going to try to get Outlook working....but I think I might have to buy it from Skyrix.....from what I read. -- Tom Nielsen Neuro Logic Systems, Inc. 1.805.389.5435 x18 www.neuro-logic.com

Tom, FYI: I have installed today egroupware. No problems at all with this install bin and then setup.php http://www.egroupware.org/ Regards, -- Marek Chlopek
