Setting up the Funambol server in Opentaps

The document which explains how to set up the funambol server is hot-deploy/funambol/docs/man/otfm_admin_guide.doc

After following this steps, you should have a complete funambol server working.

Synchronising Opentaps and Mozilla Thunderbird

Hosting: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sync4jmozilla

Configuration to synchronise with the admin account with opentaps and mozilla thunderbird on the same computer:

Edit --> Preferences --> Funambol

Account server URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/funambol/ds Username: admin Password: ofbiz

Synchronize Items --> Contact --> Details

Select the addressbook to sync Remote name: otcontact

If you have the extension Lightning, you can also synchronise your calendar. I recommand to install the extension Provider for google calendar as well, so you can export items from Thunderbird to Google Calendar.

Synchronize Items --> Calendar --> Details

Select the Calendar to sync Remote name: otcalendar

Synchronising Opentaps and Outlook

In case you are using windows 2000, you have to use the funambol outlook plugin 3.0.15 But this plugin can't synchronise contacts with the funambol version 6 which is included in opentaps. You'll be able to synchronise tasks and calendar only.

To install this plugin, you have to follow the instruction in the document http://download.forge.objectweb.org/sync4j/Outlook_Plugin_UG.pdf

Configuration to synchronise with the admin account with opentaps and outlook plugin on the same computer:

Edit --> Communication Settings SyncServer URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/funambol/ds Username: admin Password: ofbiz

Edit --> Synchronisation Settings Activate synchronisation with Contacts, Calendar, Tasks Remote Settings: Contact Name otcontact Calendar Name otcalendar Task Name ottask

Hit the Synchronize button.

Synchronising Opentaps and Gmail

Hosting: https://google-connector.forge.funambol.org/

The version tested is 1.2.0 beta1.

Edit --> Communication Settings Server URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080/funambol/ds FunambolUsername: admin FunambolPassword: ofbiz Gmail Username: myuserIdongmail Gmail Password: mypasswordongmail

Synchronising Opentaps and Yahoo

Edit --> Synchronisation Settings Activate synchronisation with Contacts

The synchronisation with Calendar doesn't work, because yahoo connector use calendar in Vcalendar format only and opentaps send the calendar in sif format. Please don't activate it.

Remote Settings: Contact Name otcontact Calendar Name otcalendar

Synchronising Opentaps and Skype

Hosting: http://sourceforge.net/projects/funambolskype/

There is currently no release either commit on svn on this project.

Synchronising Opentaps and Windows Mobile

In case you are using windows, you have to use the funambol windows mobile sync client, you can download the version which fit your mobile at https://www.forge.funambol.org/download/.

After install the sync client to your mobile, we can do following steps to configure it to connect with opentaps.

Menu --> Accout Server location: http://127.0.0.1:8080/funambol/ds Username: admin Password: ofbiz
