How to verify freebusy generation

[Chuck Dand]

I have a Gentoo Kolab 2.1 server up and running for 15 users. All appears to be working fine with the exception of freebusy. The clients are using Outlook 2003 with the latest Toltec connector.

I have set the URL in Outlook as described in the documentation, and have also tested using a browser. I can't seem to get any freebusy information out. Where is the freebusy information stored on the server so that I can verify if it is or is not being generated?

freebusy is set to debug and I'm seeing the following in the log file when accessing via the links browser.

# links http://host.domain.org.uk/freebusy/username@domain.org.uk.ifb

I think free/busy never really worked with 2.1. And to be honest I probably won't take the time to fix it anymore. 2.1 always was a test model and showed me the weaknesses of my approach. 2.2 should be a different thing and it will see a different type of support.

Cheers,

my freebusy works fine on kolab-2.1
/var/cache/freebusy needs to be writable by the webserver

Code:

chown -R apache.apache /var/cache/freebusy
