CalDAV with iPhone How-To
|

|
||||
tested and supported as a Calendaring client for the OpenERP CalDAV module.

|

|

OpenERP server Setup
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
Some modules need to be installed at the OpenERP server. These are:
|
||||
- caldav: Required, has the reference setup and the necessary
|
||||
underlying code. Will also cause document, document_webdav
|
||||
to be installed.
|
||||
- crm_caldav: Optional, will export the CRM Meetings as a calendar.
|
||||
- project_caldav: Optional, will export project tasks as calendar.
|
||||
- http_well_known: Optional, experimental. Will ease bootstrapping,
|
||||
but only when a DNS srv record is also used.
|
||||
|
||||
These will also install a reference setup of the folders, ready to go.
|
||||
The administrator of OpenERP can add more calendars and structure, if
|
||||
needed.
|
||||
|
||||
DNS server setup
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
To be documented.
|
||||
|
||||
SSL setup
|
||||
----------
|
||||
It is highly advisable that you also setup SSL to work for the OpenERP
|
||||
server. HTTPS is a server-wide feature in OpenERP, which means a
|
||||
certificate will be set at the openerp-server.conf and will be the same
|
||||
for XML-RPC, HTTP, WebDAV and CalDAV.
|
||||
The iPhone also supports secure connections with SSL, although it does
|
||||
not expect a self-signed certificate (or one that is not verified by
|
||||
one of the "big" certificate authorities [1] ).
|
||||
|
||||
Phone setup
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
The iPhone is fairly easy to setup.
|
||||
IF you need SSL (and your certificate is not a verified one, as usual),
|
||||
then you first will need to let the iPhone trust that. Follow these
|
||||
steps:
|
||||
|
||||
s1. Open Safari and enter the https location of the OpenERP server:
|
||||
https://my.server.ip:8071/
|
||||
(assuming you have the server at "my.server.ip" and the HTTPS port
|
||||
is the default 8071)
|
||||
s2. Safari will try to connect and issue a warning about the certificate
|
||||
used. Inspect the certificate and click "Accept" so that iPhone
|
||||
now trusts it.
|
||||
For SSL specific configuration see the documentation below

Where "https://my.server.ip:8071" is the protocol, server name

and port as discussed above, "dbname" is the name of the database.

[Note that the default "https://my.server.ip:8071/principals/users/username" might also

be edited to "https://my.server.ip:8071/webdav/dbname/principals/users/username" ]
