Notification popup

Jack_Fr 2010-10-19 09:42:45 UTC #1

Hi ,
I have eGW 1.8 installed in my machine (Ubuntu). I 'm trying to setup the
calendar alarm with notification popup.
I already setup asynchronous timed services with crontab, grant access to
notification for all users, configure the notification backup via site
configuration and preferences.
But it seems to me that only email notification is working, but the popup
has never shown up.
Could anyone tell me how to make it work?
And what is the difference between egroupware popup and windows popup?

Thanks
Jack

Hi,

I have the same problem. Installed on windows with Asynchronous timed services
notifications setup and working. Test job runs and sends email as expected.

Do not get any notifications even though everything setup in admin and preferences.

Hi,

the attached file could fix the problem in certain cases for current 1.8 version. Please give it a try.

Create a backup of /phpgwapi/inc/class.egw_session_files.inc.php
Overwrite it with the attached file: class.egw_session_files.inc.php (5.71 KB)

I also committed this fix to the current 1.8 branch and trunk versions.

Hi Jaytraxx,

Thanks for the file. Unfortunately it does not fix the problem for me. Still no popup notification or bell symbol in the tool-bar.

Do you get a session list (Admin >> View sessions)?

If not, it’s a problem of the rights of your session directory (php.ini:
session.save_path). Debian and Ubuntu do not allow to list it.

Hi Ralf,

I don’t see any sessions listed in the Admin/View Sessions.

I am running Egroupware on windows 7 using Abyss Webserver X2 and PHP 5.2.10. I have changed my php.ini sessions.savepath and can now see the sessions appearing in the chosen directory.

I still don’t see them listed in the Admin/View Sessions. Do you have any ideas?

Regards

Andy

Hi, im use debian lenny with EG1.8 from deb sources, i can see session files in “/var/lib/php5/”. So i think rights sets be ok.
Ralf: What u mean with wrong rights on session directory? How is the way to fix it?

do a ls -l /var/lib/php5 and you see it: no read rights.

chmod +r /var/lib/php5 fixes it, thought it’s done in Debian/Ubuntu for
security reasons.

Hi again,

you’re right Ralf, the read access should be there. Furhermore my patch should be applied (also committed to 1.8 and trunk) because otherwise max_session_size of -1 (used in crontabs) prevents the list_sessions method from reading the session files

Hi,

Lucky me, windows 7 crashed on me last Thursday night and I was unable to repair it. Surprise Surprise…

I am now running Open Suse 11.3 on my server with Axigen Mailserver and Egroupware.

I no longer have a problem with the sessions or notification.

IMO WINDOWS SUCKS — I’ve lost 3 machines over the last year all running windows (Vista & 7). Linux rules.

Regards

Andy

Hello,
I still have the same problem with notifications.
I’m using Debian squeeze, egroupware 1.8.001.
Files in directory /var/lib/php5 have read access for everyone.
I cannot see sessions in admin and notifications doesn’t popup. Notifications comes only through email.

Thanks in advance,
Ionut I.

two to three possible reasons:

the folder itself need to be readable by the WebServer
missing open Base Dir directive for /var/lib/php5
some suhoshin patch restrictions.

most probably the first two will cause the mentioned problem.

Same here. But with unstable.

missing open Base Dir directive for /var/lib/php5

some suhoshin patch restrictions.
Than it should be the 3. thing, the folder is readable by the webserver and in the openbasedir in /etc/apache/conf.d/egroupware

But how I can check what of the 3. choice is wrong, in /etc/php5/apache/conf.d/suhoshin.ini nothing is set,…

Yes that is connected, as session access is used to determine if a user is online

Hi,
Thank you very much!
Now it’s working. After I set suhosin.session.encrypt = off everything is ok.

Best regards,
