Alert

Note that the choice of storage environments will have a major influence on performance of your Scalix system. Scalix as an application is largely I/O-bound, using variable, small-blocksize random read/write synchronous file I/O.

Also note that Scalix does not support putting a Scalix Message Store on a NFS- or SMB-based storage device such as a NAS Filer. Performance issues and/or Message Store corruption can occur. This is true for all Linux distributions using Linux 2.6.x kernels as the NFS client software in these kernels have known issues with file locking operations, which Scalix heavily relies on.

We suggest putting the Scalix message store on a Hardware RAID Array, using RAID 1+0 for best performance. The use of RAID 5 or RAID 6 will result in substantially worse performance due to the nature of Scalix Disk I/O patterns (small, synchronous random writes) and is not recommended. In larger installations, we do recommend using iSCSI- or FibreChannel-based SAN storage. We also recommend the use of battery-backed write cache on the RAID controller where available

Bug

Issue

Comment/Solution/Workaround

18726

When creating a mailnode using the Mailnode screen in SAC, public folder structure in hosting mode is not created and users cannot login.

Do not create the Hosted Mailnode using the Mailnode Screen in SAC; use the provided SAC Hosted Mailnode plugin instead. In Scalix 11.5, the functionality will be fully embedded into SAC and the plugins will go away

20630

Default values for LDAP size limit inadequate

The size limit for LDAP queries in SAC may be insufficient for even simple installations. The default will be raised in a future release. The limit can be manually adjusted in ubermanager.properties if the said error appears

Bug

Issue

Comment/Solution/Workaround

4108

Umlauts in passwords do not work correctly

It is recommended not to use non-ASCII characters in passwords. For best security and compatibility, use a combination of ASCII characters, numbers and special characters. non-ASCII characters in passwords are subject to client processing and are not likely to work across different clients

10641

ommodu --resource Y does not create calendar folder and set calendar permissions

It is not recommended to change a normal user to a resource. Delete the user mailbox and create a new one, which will have the calendar folder setup. Otherwise, you'll have to log-in to a calendar-enabled client with the user and setup folder permissions on the Calendar manually

15824

LDAP server should disable anonymous binds by default to allow for better security

The desired effect can be achieved by setting LDAP_MUST_AUTHENTICATE=TRUE in general.cfg

15908

sxaa: An applied filter including non-ascii characters is not effective.

This will be fixed in a future release of Scalix

16919

omtidy omtidyallu options -d -w0 cause problems

The combination of options will be disabled in a future release of Scalix and should be considered unsupported and deprecated

16965

RSS ProxyFolder should keep history of entries independent of server feed content

The behavior will change in a future release of Scalix

17021

Some special characters not allowed in Proxy Folder names

Do not use any of these characters in proxy folder names: "[", "]", "$", "%", "*", "#" or "/"

17220

Can't recognize CJK user names in Proxy Folder setup

Find out the ASCII version of the Scalix username (as per omshowu) and use this to create the proxy folder as a workaround

17374

omscan server cycle will not run if time was in the future during last cycle

Reset the Server Cycle timer using omscan -Z

17442

sxdu -r should automatically correct wrong recovery folder size.

The wrong size information can be corrected by running omscan in "-S" fix mode and then deleting another item, so that it gets added to the recovery folder. Future versions of Scalix will automatically correct the wrong information

17686

Allow for unlimited number of elements in a folder, including Inbox.

Scalix 12 will eventually allow for an unlimited number of items in each folder. For Scalix 11, the limitations are 128K (=131072) items per folder (including subfolder entries, but NOT including subfolder items) and 32K (=32767) when Outlook is supposed to access the folder using Scalix Connect

17772

ommodpdl fails when CN has more than 40 characters

Use PDL names shorter than 40 characters

20673

Duplicate sub-Folders Created in BB device after moving messages in SWA.

This is a known issue with Scalix Connect for Blackberry Enterprise Server. It will be fixed in a future release

CalDAV should allow viewing of attachments

This functionality will be added in a future release of Scalix

17007

CalDAV scheduling POST to Outbox should result in message in Sent Items

This will be improved in a future release of Scalix, as the CalDAV-Scheduling standard evolves towards a full RFC

Bug

Issue

Comment/Solution/Workaround

14911

Folder name having greater then (<) and (>) lesser then sign are not displayed in folder tree

Do not use "<" and ">" characters when naming folders for use in SWA

16549

Invoking SWA within a frameset yields erroneous error message

Using SWA inside a frameset is currently not supported. A future version of SWA will be made more portal-friendly

16813

Attaching file having semicolon in filename removes all the earlier attachments.

Using semicolons in attachment names is not supported for SWA. The behavior will be improved for a future release

17035

SWA appears to allow changes to read-only Proxy Folder

Future versions of SWA will display proxy folders differently and not allow changes using UI limitations

17693

SWA test button should trigger browser prompt to install appropriate media plugin on IE7

Correct Media plugins must be installed manually before the SWA session for SWA to play sounds correctly on receiving email

17828

Folder names with ! don't work in SWA, do in Outlook, cause issues in sxmboxexp/imp

Do not use folder names containing exclamation marks ("!") to be able to use a folder in SWA

19578

Can't open attachment with apostrophe in the file name

In Internet Explorer and when running on Vista, files with apostrophes in the name cannot be opened when received as an attachment. This will be fixed in a future release. As a workaround, please re-send the file with the attachment renamed. In general, it is not recommended to use filenames with special characters for attachments

20215

Search Result Pane returns blank window, when pop-up blocker is turned on.

The search window will be integrated into the main window in a future release of Scalix. Popup handling will be improved. For the time being, popup blocking must be fully disabled for SWA to work correctly

20234

Keep getting "Your request to the server has timed out. Keep trying?" popup message.

Scalix 11.5 will vastly improve on SWA used bandwidth and how timeouts are managed. The number of occurrences of this (valid) timeout will be reduced

20787

SWA fails to send mail to the PDLs having special characters in their names.

Certain special characters like double quotes ("), ampersand (&), angle quotes (<>) or semicolon (;) should not be used in the display name of a personal distribution list in the SWA contact folder; otherwise, it will not be possible to send email to these distribution lists

OLE embeded objects are not viewable on the message in the Sent Items folder

The use of embedded OLE objects is not supported with current versions of Scalix Connect

10333

MAPI limits number of items displayed in a folder to the first 32767

Currently, only the first 32767 items in any folder can be accessed through Outlook/MAPI. This limit will be lifted in a future release of Scalix

14634

Subject displays empty in sent items folder when mail sent with more than 178 i18n chars.

This issue will be resolved in future versions of Scalix

14766

User must wait for the AB_DOWNLOAD_INTERVAL to expire and/or restart Outlook for Address Book Changes to be propagated to SmartCache

15549

Support for "To-Do Bar" search for Tasks on Outlook 2007

This feature of Outlook 2007 or higher will be supported in Scalix 11.5

15587

When searching in Outlook the "search in subfolders" option is ignored for subfolders with special characters in their names.

The behavior will be improved in a future release of Scalix. It is not recommended to use non-ascii characters in folder names for maximum client compatibility

15877

"Recall message" functionality should be supported with Scalix Connect.

This may be implemented in a future release of Scalix. It should be noted, however, that the functionality is only weakly implemented in Outlook, as in many cases only a "Disregard previous message" message can be provided

16693

Repairing connector installation gives outlook information store error.

Do not use the "Repair" option at this time. If there are any issues with the installation of Scalix Connect for Outlook, uninstall and re-install the connector

17177

Regression: Setup.exe uses CPU more than 95% while setup is triggered from shared folder.

This is a known issue with the Scalix Connect for Outlook installer. Copy the setup.exe file to a local drive before launching the installer

17203

Progress indicator sometimes not visible or updated on OL12

This issue happens rarely with Scalix Connect for Outlook 11.4.5

17888

iTunes does not support sync with iphone using iTunes OutlookSyncClient

Support for wired synchronization using Outlook and iTunes will be supported in Scalix 11.5. Scalix ActiveSync, providing for Push Email and wireless calendar and contact synchronization, could be used as a better alternative

18322

Outlook Connect does not install if filename is renamed in Vista

Leave the filename of the installation image as Setup.exe

18488

Outlook 2003 used right after installation can report error: "Unable to open default email folder..."

As of Scalix 11.4.5, Windows Desktop Search will correctly index SmartCache profiles. Future versions will enable non-cached profiles to be indexed as well

19535

Support for Blackberry Desktop Manager

Blackberry Desktop Manager v4.1 and v4.2 can be enabled to work with Scalix using a patch to those products provided in the "extras" folder of the Scalix Connect distribution. Future versions of Scalix connect will support BBDM without such a patch

19584

Scalix Connect to support Google Desktop Search

A future version of Scalix Connect will support Google Desktop Search. Use Windows Desktop Search with Scalix Connect 11.4.5 or higher as a workaround

Installation fails if hostname contains uppercase characters.

Use a hostname for your scalix server consisting of all-lowercase characters

15770

Installer should be smart enough to handle running scalix server with license upgrade during installation

If you need a different Scalix license key after a planned upgrade, install that license key before running the installer to upgrade the software
