Hi

I installed the eGroupware, following the how-to.
But I'm not able to sync it with outlook
I'm trying to use the Funambol outlook client configured like this:

Communication Settings
* SyncServer http://domain/egroupware/rpc.php
* Username: eGW username
* Password: eGW password

Remote Settings
* Contact Name: ./sifcontacts
* Calendar Name: ./sifcalendar
* Task Name: ./siftasks
* Note Name: ./sifnotes (? it looks that its not yet implemented)


And I also added to the httpd.ini the following:
<Location /egroupware/rpc.php>
php_value mbstring.func_overload 0
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Location>



And it does not word... Any ideas ?

    For users trying to sync to Outlook I would suggest to make use of Outlook plugins as they can be really helpful.
    Personally id suggest using EVO Collaborator to get eGroupware to sync to Outlook.

    Its so much easier to setup as it auto-detects most of the info.
    Blogpost on it here if you want to know more : http://outlookandmacosxserver.blogspot.com/2015/10/sync-outlook-with-egroupware-server.html

    ok... I found why the error I described above occurred
    I had the php var for override enabled, so any code in .htaccess was overriding the php.ini

    I was happy in discovering that (since I'm a noob) but I'm facing now another error... :s
    "HTTP server error: 500. Server failure."

    Here is now the debug :
