Unable to connect to eGroupware cardDAV from OS X el Capitain

Zirox 2015-10-26 22:18:44 UTC #1

Since i have upgraded to OS X El Capitan (10.11.1), OS X Contact (Version 9.0-1679) i’m not able to connect to eGroupware cardDAV.

When i tray to create a new account (I have tried “manual” and “advanced” option) I received “impossible to verify account or password”

I use eGroupWare version 1.8.007.

Some help?

Thank you

You are not the only one reporting this problem.

This BUG seems related to the new version of the Apple User Account framework introduced with El Capitan.

The only workaround i’ve found is to migrate with Migration assistant.app the old user account created with 10.10.

Hope this helps.

You need to create an Apache configuration for /.well-known, which is
done in our package configuration:

https://svn.stylite.de/egroupware/branches/14.2/egroupware/doc/rpm-build/apache.conf

RedirectMatch ^/.well-known/(caldav|carddav)$ /egroupware/groupdav.php/

Thank you Ralph, but unfortunately I don’t exactly understand what i have to to when you write “You need to create an Apache configuration for /.well-known, which is done in our package configuration:”.

Thank you

Hi Riccardo,

Thank you Ralph, but unfortunately I don’t exactly understand what i have to
to when you write “You need to create an Apache configuration for
/.well-known, which is done in our package configuration:”.
If you don’t know Apache configuration very well, please use our
packages / default installation method.

In the link I gave you, you can see our Apache configuration creating
the required .well-known redirects:

RedirectMatch^/.well-known/(caldav|carddav)$ /egroupware/groupdav.php/ Ralf

Thank you

Riccardo
