== Basic Installation ==
 
 
 
Simply follow the guides to install Open-Xchange Hosting Edition on your favorite Linux distribution. Important: Stop before step "Creating contexts and users " - this is not necessary since all administration of contexts and users will be handled via Plesk.

== Installation and Configuration of SOAP interface ==
 
 
 
To allow Plesk to provision contexts and users to Open-Xchange it is necessary to install the SOAP package on the OX server and configure it:
 
 
 
1. Login to your Open-Xchange server and install the packages "open-xchange-admin-soap" and  "open-xchange-axis2" via your package tool:
 
 
 
Example for Debian:<br>
 
$ apt-get install open-xchange-admin-soap open-xchange-axis2
 
 
 
2. Open /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/plugin/open-xchange-admin-soap.properties with your favorite text editor and set the configuration option RMI_HOSTNAME.
 
     
 
Assuming that the IP address of your Open-Xchange server is 1.2.3.4 you'll have to change it to:<br>
 
$ RMI_HOSTNAME=rmi://1.2.3.4:1099/
 
 
 
3. Open /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/AdminDaemon.properties with your favorite text editor and set the configuration option BIND_ADDRESS to 0:<br>
 
$ BIND_ADDRESS=0
 
 
 
4. Restart the Open-Xchange services:<br>
 
$ /etc/init.d/open-xchange-admin restart
 
$ /etc/init.d/open-xchange-groupware restart
 
 
 
== Modification of Module Access Definitions ==
 
 
 
On Open-Xchange server versions prior to release 6.18 you have to modify the so called Module Access Definitions. The Module Access Definitions define which features different types of OX Accounts (Webmail, Standard Groupware, Premium Groupware) have enabled.
 
 
 
 
 
1. 1. Login to your Open-Xchange server and open /opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/ModuleAccessDefinitions.properties with your favorite text editor and add these lines:
 
    pim=webmail,calendar,contacts,tasks,globaladdressbookdisabled,collectemailaddresses,multiplemailaccounts,subscription,publication
 
      groupware_standard=webmail,calendar,contacts,infostore,tasks,webdav,ical,vcard,readcreatesharedfolders,delegatetask,editpublicfolders,editgroup,editresource,editpassword,collectemailaddresses,multiplemailaccounts,subscription,publication
 
      groupware_premium=webmail,calendar,contacts,infostore,tasks,webdav,webdavxml,ical,vcard,syncml,usm,activesync,readcreatesharedfolders,delegatetask,editpublicfolders,editgroup,editresource,editpassword,collectemailaddresses,multiplemailaccounts,subscription,publication
