Ubuntu :: 64bit Thunderbird, Funambol & Lightning - Possible?
Oct 20, 2010
I've been wrestling with the whole Thunderbird, funambol and lightning compatibility issue for some time now, and was excited to come across this link that had the steps to compile both thunderbird and funambol for 64bit linux so they'd work nicely together.So I followed those steps, and got them both working together, and syncing contacts.I then went to get my calendar back up and running, and can't for the life of me find a version of lightning that will install successfully. Does anyone know if this is even possible at this stage, and if so, where I can find a version of lightning?I now have:
Thunderbird(Lanikai) 3.1.6pre
Funambol 1.0b4
Ubuntu(64bit) 10.04

I'm running Thunderbird/3.0.10 on Lucid 10.04, there does not seem to be a Lightning add on available for this version. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to get this up and running?Otherwise I like 10.04 and intend to stick with it till the next LTS release as I need a stable desktop environment.

I am running lucid with Thunderbird 3.1.5 (32 bit) and trying to install Lightning 1.0b2. Whenever, I install Lightning, I cannot restart TB, if I drop it. No error message. I have to start TB from the Terminal with "thunderbird -safe-mode", remove Lightning, and then everything works. I read of others having problems with TB and Lightning, but most of these are 64 bit. I am 32 bit. Please note that I have removed all other extensions from TB, but I still can't run Lightning.
One concern I have is that even though Synaptic says that TB 3.1.5 is install, the Help>About says just TB 3.1. It doesn't include the ".5". I am concerned that despite what Synaptic says, I might not have version 3.1.5 installed. Is there any way to check if I really have version 3.1.5 installed? I tried to install the latest nightly build of Lightning, but I got the error message "Lightning 1.0b3pre could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 3.6.10". how to get Lightning to run with Thunderbird?

With the most recent upgrade of Thunderbird to 3.0.9 I was unable to find a 64-bit version of the lightning calendar plug-in. I tried compiling my own copy of thunderbird v3 from source (3.0.10pre) and it loaded into 3.0.9 perfectly! Rename the attached files to drop the last ".bz2" (files should end in ".00" and ".01") then combine both files with the command
Code:
cat lightning.tar.bz2.* >lightning.tar.bz2
If you want to try compiling your own copy instead, just read the websites quoted in the header to ensure you have all dependencies then simply run this batch file
Code:
#/bin/sh
#Compile Thunderbird c/w lightning
#script compiled from: https://developer.mozilla.org/index.php?title=en/Simple_Thunderbird_build&action=print

Have just installed Kubuntu 10.10 Maverick 64-bit - works fine. Using xul-ext-lightning (lightning 1.0b2) with a symlink for local.sqlite to the same on the Windows 7 64-bit partition, I can have the same calender on both partitions.
I also have a Kubuntu 10.04 Lucid LTS 32-bit partition and I would like to do the same, but cannot do it. When trying to install lightning 1.0b2 I get the message "not compatible with Thunderbird 3.0.10". So I disable the compatibilityCheck and it installs okay. But the calendar does not show any data with the symlink. Why is that? Different sqlite versions?? Or is it so that the 64-bit data cannot be read by a 32-bit program??
So I try older versions of lightning.xpi - no luck. After some additional googling I try installing Thunderbird 3.1.6 32-bit using Ubuntuzilla. Compatibility OK with 1.0b2 but still no calendar data using the symlink.

I was trying to install Lightning as an add-on with Thunderbird.
After doing some reading I was not the only one having some problems,
To Install Lightning, I needed Thunderbird 3.1, and installed on my system is 3.06.
When I did that I now get this message,
W: Failed to fetch [URL... 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

The version of Thunderbird which is in openSUSE 11.3 is 3.05. Alas, the Lightning add-on only works with Thunderbird 3.1+. I use this add-on a lot!
I'm very tempted to just download Thunderbird 3.1 and install it, but I'd rather "keep it in the family" and have zypper managing the updates etc. Is 3.1 in the pipeline for openSUSE 11.3???

I have thunderbird-lightning rpm installed but it doesnt show up in thunderbird. In fc11 with thunderbird 2 it was on the left bottom of the screen I think. I checked all the settings tabs but I can't find any reference to lightning. Is this a bug or is there something I have to do to see it? For now I'm using the standalone app sunbird but I really like to have the integrated lightning back in thunderbird. I also tried the lightning plugin from the plugins tab but it complains it's not compatible with gcc3 or something so I guess that's why there is a rpm package.

I'm looking for a method to sync my calendars on my IMAP server with both my Thunderbird/Lightning any my Blackberry. I found "IMAP Calendar Proxy" here recently, but it has been inactive for 5 years. I've seen people suggesting the use of services like Plaxo and such, but I don't like the idea of a third party messing with my calendars and contacts. Also, I've had to remove several viruses from computers with Plaxo, and I'm not sure if it in itself is a virus or not..... It certainly is a thorn in my side as is. This is for my personal IMAP server, so I'd prefer a free solution even if it is more difficult to install than a paid version. I mainly need it to just sync my calendar to my Blackberry and Thunderbird and couldn't care less about the contacts.
I've been Googling for things for quite some time now, and haven't really found anything that says that it will work with Blackberry and Thunderbird. They really only give a sense of maybe with nothing really defined. I can put on an Ubuntu server to sync everything? I don't want to leave my computer on all the time, and RIM has yet to come out with something decent to sync Blackberries and Thunderbird properly as far as I know.

A package nss >= 3.12.8 is not available. But it is needed by thunderbird update in the course of "yum update". yum exits with RC 1.Is "--skip-broken" the right way to exclude the thunderbird update ("Resolve depsolve problems by removing packages that are causing problems from the transaction")? Or is there a better way to exclude a package? Problem screen output:
---> Package thunderbird.x86_64 0:3.0.10-1.fc12 set to be updated
--> Processing Dependency: nss >= 3.12.8 for package: thunderbird-3.0.10-1.fc12.x86_64
--> Finished Dependency Resolution

Have been having problems syncing my phone contacts with U1 using Funambol; only about half of them sync. I have a little over 400 in the Funambol contacts on the phone, but only about 250 ever show up on U1.

I am running an installation of Scientific Linux 6.0 (it is literally RHEL 6 minus the brand), and have successfully setup Citadel Groupware, and synced it with a Mozilla Thunderbird client with the Lightning calendar extension. It is very nice!
However, for the Citadel server to sync with my iPhone, I need to, and have have downloaded and successfully started the latest Groupware Sync Server from here. The Groupware Sync Server is basically an installation of Funambol, specially made to work with Citadel.
I tried to connect to the server from my iPhone with the Funambol connector app, and the Synthesis SyncML app, but none of them worked when I pointed them to: http://[hostname]:8080/funambol/ds (which is what the Groupware Sync Server documentation told me). Of course, I replaced [hostname] with my actual hostname.
I checked the logs of both sync apps, and they both say the following:
Quote:
[ERROR] processItemStatus: server sent status 506 in SYNC
[ERROR] Error #506 in source addressbook
On the Citadel and Groupware Sync Server forums, I was told that error 506 meant its something on the server going on, so I got the two relevant log files, /opt/Funambol/logs/ds-server/ds-server.log, and /opt/tools/tomcat/logs/catalina.out (the links point to pastebins of the output).
What does "error 506" mean, and how do I correct it?
BTW, I disabled my entire firewall just in case that was the issue.

How come mozilla lightning did not made into the repos for Lucid? My only chance is to download it from mozilla? I am using Lucid 32 bits. So. I did it, downloaded lightning-1.0b1-tb+sm-linux.xpi and installed fine:
Code:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100423 Lightning/1.0b1 Thunderbird/3.0.4
However, none of the calendar functions are working, calendar itself opens, but no grid lines are displayed. When I click on an invitation for an event, nothing is shown as body, no options to accept or decline, and the message is not marked as read. How can I workaround it? I tried mozilla daily ppa but no luck, erased .thunderbird profile, no luck. What else can I try?

I recently installed ubuntu 10.04 on two laptops. I am just beginning to get familiar with the OS. Having been a long time Windows user, I'm not familiar with command line functions -- my days of working with DOS commands are far in the past. My problem: I set up an ubuntu one account and I am trying to use it to sync my contacts using my BB phone. This seemed to be a cool thing to do. I downloaded the 'sync2.jad' for my phone. No apparent problem. Then, following the instructions I downloaded Funambol (8.5.3 for GNU/Linux). Now things got dicey.
Funambol was a bin file and I had no idea what to do with it. (I've become acclimated to just double clicking the file and have it install itself with a little icon on the desktop to launch it - I know, I've gotten soft). Anyway I found enough info to, after a number of tries, get Funambol to apparently install. At least the installation ran in the terminal window and ended with "web demo 8.5.3 installed successfully".
The instructions on the ubuntu one site are to 'start Funambol' from wherever it is and then adjust the settings etc. I can find no way to 'start' Funamblol. There are no icons, no start menu, .. I'm at a loss. The files are all in a Funambol folder - I just can't make them do anything.

Thanks to Lucid not working properly on i845, i855 and other 8xx chips, had to re-install Karmic on my mum's computer.I saved all the data from her old install and I ve managed to get all her old emails from thunderbird, but I cant import her address book.In Thunderbird/tools/import/addressbooks it only allows importing of LDIF, .tab, .csv and .txt files, but I cant find any of these files in any of the Thunderbird, .Thunderbird, Mozilla-Thunderbird or Mozilla folders in Home folder or anywhere, all I can find is "abook.mab" which IS supposed to be her address book, but when I try and import it the entries are blank and/or indecipherable (prob cos not a compatible file type).
Its one of those "simple" things to do, thats taken hours and hours of time, but that I cant actually find out how to do.

A new open source package called Lightning Rod will help to close security exploits in Adobe's dirty Flash code. A presentation made at the 26th Chaos Communication Congress showed that the package does its job by reviewing incoming code before the browser executes it. Heise Online is reporting that this method can block over 20 different known attacks and can even be used to filter out malicious JPG attacks. As more vulnerabilities are discovered they can be added to Lightning Rod to close the breach.

I had a portable apps version of Thunderbird (windows) that runs off a thumb drive and wanted to take the settings and transfer them to my Thunderbird that's on my Linux computer.
This is what I did:
First, I installed thunderbird on my Ubuntu 10.04 Linux box and opened it, and closed it (so that it would create the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder in the user account).
Then, I renamed the linux /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder to .thunderbird_ORIGINAL
Then, I created a new /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder
Then, I took the windows e:ThunderbirdPortableDataprofile folder and copied it to the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder.
Then, I looked into the /home/<username>/.thunderbird_ORIGINAL folder and wrote down the name of the folder with the ".default" extension.
Then, I renamed the profile folder (that came from the windows e:ThunderbirdPortableData folder) "<name-I-wrote-down>.default".
And then, I copied the profiles.ini folder from /home/<username>/.thunderbird_ORIGINAL to the /home/<username>/.thunderbird folder.
I opened up Thunderbird in Linux and everything seems fine! (I'll definitely be keeping a backup just in case)
My question is: is this fine and dandy, or a recipe for disaster?

I run version 10.04 GNOME. My problem is (after substantial searching) that I need to have both users ('juliusz' and 'sarah') running Thunderbird but with the same profile (settings, email, accounts etc. preferably of 'juliusz'). The only results on the internet are share Thunderbird between Windows and Ubuntu.
I have two users juliusz and sarah. I need either of them to have the same profile, always in synch whenever they logon to own account. When I tried to edit sarah's /home/sarah/.mozilla-thunderbird/profile.ini by inserting: Path=/home/juliusz/.mozilla-thunderbird/xxxxxxx.default after i run Thunderbird for 'sarah' I get message: "Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Thunderbird process, or restart your system." I checked with "ps aux" there is no Thunderbird running in sarah's session. There is no Thunderbird running in juliusz's session when I reloged to juliusz.

I have installed 11.4, and it seems (seemed) to work OK so far. I installed Thunderbird via the opensuse "1 click install". the installation ran smoothly, but now a click on the Thunderbird icon does not activate any mail client; the only success is that Thunderbird icon jumps joyfully and then disappears.
