Adding a third address book

[WTPsyche]

I've previously added a second address book/directory to my Scalix server that populates by filtering [members of a mailnode] from the System directory. I wanted to add another, but when I make the addition to the swa.properties file and restart Tomcat... at first I can't log into SAC, and shortly thereafter the whole SWA/SAC returns an error page (sorry, I can't be specific, but it's an actual server error, not a 4xx code).

My question is... what exactly is the reason/rule for the "swa.ldap.x.type=" value? Can I have more than one "...type=other"?

E.g.:

Code: Select all

...
swa.ldap.3.type=other
swa.ldap.3.baseDN=o=dmr
swa.ldap.3.filter=(|(&(cn=%s*)(mail=*))(&(sn=%s*)(mail=*))(&(gn=%s*)(mail=*))(mail=%s*)(&(omalias=%s*)(mail=*)))
swa.ldap.3.server=scalixserver.domain.com
swa.ldap.3.port=389
swa.ldap.3.displayName.resourceID=
swa.ldap.3.displayName.resourceLabel=DMR
swa.ldap.3.authType=none
swa.ldap.3.addressSearchLimit=100
swa.ldap.3.search....
...
swa.ldap.4.type=other
swa.ldap.4.baseDN=o=ethics
swa.ldap.4.filter=(|(&(cn=%s*)(mail=*))(&(sn=%s*)(mail=*))(&(gn=%s*)(mail=*))(mail=%s*)(&(omalias=%s*)(mail=*)))
swa.ldap.4.server=scalixserver.domain.com
swa.ldap.4.port=389
swa.ldap.4.displayName.resourceID=
swa.ldap.4.displayName.resourceLabel=Ethics
swa.ldap.4.authType=none
swa.ldap.4.addressSearchLimit=100
swa.ldap.4.search...
...

Yes, the type is the key to the issue - the type is a bit of a misnamer, it is not really a type, but rather a tag, so all blocks need to have different names in the type field.

Please do not use the predefined type names personal and system for anything else, though, they have different meaning and alter some behaviour.

Cheers,
Florian.

Thanks Florian, I suspected as much. I'll give that a try... this time on my test box first.

Sorry to bump my own post, but I'm having a the same problem trying to add a *fourth* address book, called OIA. I've created the directory, established the dirsync, added the additional section to the slapd.conf file, and even modified the mapi.cfg file so Outlook successfully sees the new directory and its contents. However, when I add the additional section to the swa.properties file (starting at the line swa.ldap.5.type=OIA) for the new directory and restart Tomcat, the Admin console and/or the SWA interface becomes unresponsive.

The previous file that ends with the line swa.ldap.4.search.6.dirAttribute=pagerTelephoneNumber has been working fine, and is what I put back to get SWA and SAC working again. Does anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
