View source for Sync Zimbra and iPhone with Funambol

'''Sync iPhone contacts with Zimbra using Funambol'''<br>
<br>
To sync my iPhone contacts with Zimbra, I use Funambol for data synchronisation.<br>
It works perfectly, also your contact photo's from your iPhone will be visible in Zimbra.<br>
<br>
Syncing Calender is not posible yet on the iPhone app, but will be availiable soon, if you follow this instruction, your server will be ready for it.<br>
<br>
Install funambol on your Zimbra server:<br>
[https://www.forge.funambol.org/download/ dowload the latest version here]<br>
<br>
run as root:  
 ./funambol-<version>.bin
check if funambol is running with a web browser:<br>
 http://<server>:8080/funambol/

Install the Zimbra module:<br>
[http://sourceforge.net/projects/zimbrafunambol/files/zimbrafunambol/ download the latest version here]<br>
Unzip it, and copy this connector to the right place:
 cp ./ZimbraConnector_<version>/output/ZimbraConnector.s4j /opt/Funambol/ds-server/modules/ZimbraConnector.s4j
after this you can delete the unzipped dir ./ZimbraConnector_<version><br>
<br>
create the config dir:
 mkdir /opt/Funambol/config/connector/
create the file /opt/Funambol/config/connector/ZimbraConnector.xml :<br>
 <java version="1.5.0" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder">
  <object class="ru.korusconsulting.connector.config.ConnectorConfig">
   <void property="dataSource">
    <string>jdbc/fnblds</string> 
   </void>
  </object>
 </java>
edit /opt/Funambol/ds-server/install.properties , add the Zimbra connector to last line:
 modules-to-install=content-provider-8.7.0,email-connector-8.7.0,foundation-8.7.0,phones-support-8.7.0,webdemo-8.7.0,ZimbraConnector
install the connector in Funambol:
 cd /opt/Funambol/bin
 ./install-modules.sh
you can answer yes on all questions<br>

<br>
Install the admin software on your client, or run it direct on the server, if you have X: 
 /opt/Funambol/admin/bin/funamboladmin
log in to your Funambol server, with admin/sa port 8080<br><br>
[[Image:users.png]]<br>
first change the admin password:<br>
(select users, and click search)<br>
after changing the admin password, you shoul log-in again<br>
<br>
create a user with the same name as in Zimbra, with role user, for syncing with Zimbra<br>
<br>
Delete all PIM entry's (by rightclick):<br><br>
[[Image:delete_pim.png]]<br>
Add the new syncsources in the Zimbra Connector: card, scard, cal, event, scal, stask and task<br>
source URI and name should be the same<br>
URL to the Zimbra server should be: 
 http://<server>:80/service/soap/
You should see now:<br><br>

<br>
'''on iPhone<br>'''
install Funambol application from the apps-store<br>
Point iPhone to:<br>
 http://<server>:8080/funambol/ds/
<br>
add the user id and password<br>
at Contacts, select the sync direction and '''card''' for Remote name<br>
<br>
You should be able to sync your device now with Zimbra<br>
<br>
Tip 1: before syncing, export als your contacts on Zimbra as a backup file<br>
Tip 2: do this frequently by a cron job<br>
Tip 3: to avoid doubles I only use the option sync Server to Phone
