Caldav carddav Bundles
Using CalDAV and CardDAV with Open-Xchange
Beginning with the 6.20.1 release, Open-Xchange provides interfaces to connect CalDAV- and CardDAV-clients. Please note that at first only MacOS X with its clients "iCal" and "Address Book" is supported. This will change later and support for other clients such as Thunderbird will be added.
Preparation
Please edit your file /etc/apache2/ox6.conf so that the existing configuration for ox as well as the new configuration for CalDAV and CardDav is placed inside a virtual host.
This is an example where MYSERVER.TLD is the domain-name of the ox-server:
$ vi /etc/apache2/ox6.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName dav.MYSERVER.TLD ErrorLog /tmp/dav.err.log TransferLog /tmp/dav.access.log <Proxy /> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Proxy> ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/servlet/dav/ smax=0 ttl=60 retry=5 </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName MYSERVER.TLD <Location /ox6> # Expires (via ExpiresByType to override global settings) ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType text/xml "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType text/x-js "access plus 6 months" ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 6 months" ExpiresDefault "access plus 6 months" Header append Cache-Control "private" Header unset Last-Modified Header unset Vary # Strip version RewriteEngine On RewriteRule v=\w+/(.+) $1 [L] # Turn off ETag Header unset ETag FileETag None </Location> <Location /ox6/ox.html> ExpiresByType text/html "now" ExpiresDefault "now" Header unset Last-Modified Header set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0" # Turn off ETag Header unset ETag FileETag None </Location> <Location /ox6/index.html> ExpiresByType text/html "now" ExpiresDefault "now" Header unset Last-Modified Header set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0" # Turn off ETag Header unset ETag FileETag None </Location> <Location /ajax> SetOutputFilter DEFLATE </Location> </VirtualHost>
