How to get Contacts to populate Roundcube webmail?

Doesn't Roundcube allow for connections to LDAP? I would assume you can just point it to OpenDirectory. (e.g. http://www.jonsblog.org/2010/01/18/10-6-2-roundcube-ldap/)

There is a carddav plugin I already tried in the past on lion, this was working well...

Hey Mark,

I'm still working on the issue with Roundcube 0.8.1 and Graviox carddav plugin.

I think we have similar of not the same issue as with Davical Server

https://github.com/graviox/Roundcube-CardDAV/issues/28

https://github.com/graviox/Roundcube-CardDAV/issues/29

I tried their suggestions.. but still doesn't work..

but i'm sure it has to do with the PROPFIND....

I was thinking of installing somekind of PHP debugger and see what's going on...

anyone had any success one this?

Hi Eldrik,

I tried downloading carddav plugin at http://www.crash-override.net/carddav.html

Do I run the sql file in the same database as roundcube?

Manage to get carddav on roundcube. (refer to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4153247?answerId=20246429022#20246429022 for setting up roundcube)

1.downloading the latest version carddav plugin at http://www.crash-override.net/carddav.html

2.opening it would give you a carddav_0.7.0 folder

3.rename the folder to 'carddav' and moved the folder in to plugins folder of roundcube

4.run sudo for your roundcube database(must be the same as your roundcube database.)

For postgre sql example:

sudo psql -U roundcube -d rcwebmail

\c - roundcube

\i /opt/webapps/rcwebmail/plugins/carddav/dbinit/postgres.sql

\q

5. edit main.inc.php

for example:

cd /opt/webapps/rcwebmail/config/

sudo nano main.inc.php

Look for under plugins:

$rcmail_config['plugins'] = array('managesieve','autologon');

add carddav in

$rcmail_config['plugins'] = array('managesieve','autologon','carddav');

Ctrl-x (control and "x" key at same time)

y

Press "Return" Key

Speacial thanks to Gerry. 😉

for some reason it doesnt connect to apple mountain lion... got to try the other solution.

Hallo,

I have the same problem ( MAC mini server - original webmail-0.6RC, carddav-0.7)

Please it works with anyone?

Dear All,

I managed to find something that make it work. Will like to add on my post on Dec 21, 2012 9:06 PM.

After you are done with my post on Dec 21, 2012 9:06 PM. Log on to Roundcube.

under setting look for card dav.

You will be ask to key in the name of the addressbook (will be the name of the addressbook in roundcube), username and password, url:

(https://example.com:8843/addressbooks/users/[username]/addressbook/)

then save you will see the carddav address book under Address book. 😉 cheers!

mine worked.

check this out. maybe it would help.

you can also check the link below. I found my solution for it.

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4153247?answerId=20246429022#20246429022

😉

For those who are still struggling.

Comment out the following line within your carddav_backend.php file:

// curl_setopt($this->curl, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY);

It will connect at least. Now you'll face some sync issues. Replace this line:

$response = $this->query($this->url, 'PROPFIND');

With these lines:

$content = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<D:sync-collection xmlns:D="DAV:" xmlns:C="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:carddav">

<D:sync-token></D:sync-token>

<D:sync-level>1</D:sync-level>

<D:prop><D:getcontenttype/><D:getetag/><D:allprop/>

<C:address-data><C:allprop/></C:address-data></D:prop>

<C:filter/></D:sync-collection>';

$content_type = 'application/xml';

$response = $this->query($this->url, 'REPORT', $content, $content_type);

Now you can sync, view, modify and delete.

Finally I cannot add contact. But I am pretty close to that as well.

To add new contacts:

Modify function add($vcard) and add below this line:

$vcard_id = $this->generate_vcard_id();

The following line:

$vcard = str_replace('END:VCARD' , 'UID:' . $vcard_id . "\n" . 'END:VCARD', $vcard);

Now you can create new contact. It will still generate an error but the card itself will be created on your server. To remove that error message change the following line within carddav_addressbook.php inside carddav_add($vcard) function:

$rcmail->db->insert_id(get_table_name('carddav_contacts'));

to this:

return true;

Now everything should work. Create, modify and delete. Enjoy! 🙂
