Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
I have the same problem. Synchronization with google calendar stopped working for me too today.
|
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Synchronization problems should be really related to IPv6: Bug 9943 - (int-164687) MfE Wizard fails if exchange server hostname has IPv4 and IPv6 addresses

@Rob1n: I hope so. I was doing my usual 'Delete MfE calendar and then reinstall MfE calendar' routine in order to update it, but it kept saying "Error connecting to server" type message.
I'll try again tomorrow or Friday. |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
After a reboot, things are working again - I assume Google changed something back (there is a related thread in their groups to complain, maybe they picked it up)

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Hi lads,
I'm getting quite annoyed on my N900. For me synchronising the Gmail contacts doesn't work anymore. Neither with Exchange nor SynchEvolution. Tried rebooting the phone multiple times (including flushing the entire contact list). When using Mail for Exchange I'm getting "Invalid user name, password or domain for Exchange account". With synchevolution Error 401 (authentication failed) is returned. Edit: Erminig for gmail calendar is working fine :-/ Any suggestions? Thx in advance for any hints. S |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Today MfE totaly ****ed all my contacts, I got everyone in dublicate.
First MfE downloads a dublicate from Hotmail, then MfE uploads everyone again to hotmail. So now I got dublicate of every contact in both the phone and on hotmail. This is crazy. Crappy MfE! |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Hello.
Seams my MfE is broken. Is there a way to cleanup/reset/reinstall MfE? thx. |

Hello Everyone,
I really need someone's help regarding my MFE. The problem started after upgrading to version 21.2011.38-1. After the upgrade completed the first thing I did is setup my Gmail as IMAP and tried to set up my Email with MFE to connect to exchange server 2007. I am the administrator and I haven't changed anything prior the update. I installed power-kernel for overclock and ip6 and community OS for a fix if it was there, I tried importing the cert. for my server "Which didn't have to do before" with the same error . I have the syslog for active-sync attached . If someone has an idea on how to fix this please let me know . Thank you all |

It worth checking if fixing it to ip4 solves your problems. There were instructions here, maybe search could help you read more on the issue. HIH |

Can you resolve the servername in a terminal by nslookup?
If not, what happens if you add servername and IP address to /etc/hosts and try to sync again? |

And I did check cert. and shows it's fine . Should I just flash back to the version before the update ?? |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
I have identical problems syncing at work with MfE to Outlook, even when trying to sync the device to m.google.com I get this communication error. My own and my girlfriends phone show the same problem.
Software version says;21.2011.38-1 @SpRoOoOo I hope I'm not stealing your story here, so please let me know if there's no relation. It would help me if you checked syncing to gmail works for your device. Thanks, Bill |

So to sum up. Added contacts to outlook will replicate to gmail using Go Contact Sync Mod but can't sync back to N900 only with PC suite , installed Google calender sync on my computer (2 ways ) to replicate exchange calender to Gmail and N900 using mfe . I am not ready to get rid of this phone yet , I am so attached to it that's why am jumping through hoops. Maybe this won't help you much but regarding Exchange Error with m.google.com try unchecking the email and leave just calender and contacts. |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
I'm seeing the same thing with m.google.com
Code:

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Thanks SpRoOoOo, the reason for me checking gmail sync was identical to yours.
We had corporate change to another exchange server, before it worked without problems. I agree it must be something in the phone that needs updating. Will check this weekend and see whether I can get Meego installed an see whether I can get that to work properly. For today's standads the N900 is big and heavy, but I love the phone as it is possible to do almost everything.... Except sync Outlook through MfE these days. Will keep following this thread. |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
I think the cert issue is a red herring.
I was able to capture a syslog that contains a successful MfE session, a failed MfE session, all subsequent MfE session failures, and then resolve without a reboot/full resync/etc: The successful MfE case was on fresh reboot, wifi ap, external power. It looks like the ASDaemon-conn process kicks off a curl call back that returns http 200 (and I would guess the data from the post.) Code:
HTTP REQUEST: POST https://m.google.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync?Cmd=Sync&DeviceId=XXXXXXXXXX&DeviceType=SmartPhone Code:
HTTP REQUEST: POST https://m.google.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync?Cmd=FolderSync&DeviceId=XXXXXXXXXX&DeviceType=SmartPhone Now here is where I return to the known-good sync environment at the beginning of this post. All automated or Manual attempts at sync automatically fail with no retries. I suspect there is some state the CurlConnectionManager gets in where it thinks it hit the max retry limit and will no longer try. Code:
HTTP REQUEST: POST https://m.google.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync?Cmd=FolderSync&DeviceId=XXXXXXXXXX&DeviceType=SmartPhone Code:
/etc/init.d/as-daemon-0 stop Code:
HTTP REQUEST: POST https://m.google.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync?Cmd=Sync&DeviceId=XXXXXXXXXX&DeviceType=SmartPhone |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Are you using tmobile? If so, are you using epc.tmobile.com as your apn?

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Thank you. I went through several test cases last night to track this down and was never able to get the first fail sync on the 2 wifi networks I tested but I was always able to get the failure on epc.tmobile.com. I suspect something is getting mangled when the request is sent through tmobile's apn but I only have those high level results at this point.
I really want to test OPTIONS and POST to see if tmobile is messing/blocking something so I tried to look at the asdaemon's code last night but I couldn't find the relevant cssu git repo. The payload appears to be very small and the return data should not be that big (no changes to contacts/cal.) http://vivekiyer.net/2010/12/06/an-a...tions-request/ For now, this process seems to resolve the no-sync state problem: 1.) Disconnect from T-Mobile internet 2.) Connect to known-good wifi AP w/ internet 3.) /etc/init.d/as-daemon-0 restart Edit: Looks like MfE is closed source. I'll see if I can test the tmobile issue another way. Quote:

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
I can confirm on my n900 the same scenario. I've tried using the default tmobile apn epc.tmobile.com, and the wap.voicestream.com apn. I have no issues with mfe synch when on WiFi networks. On a side note, using the same sim card (yes its been trimmed to fit) I have no synch issues with mfe on my n9.
edit: I'm using T-Mobile prepaid 4g service, not sure if that would make any difference. |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Anyone on the forum having a solution how to emulate a provisioning device on N900?
I think the trouble I'm having is that the new policy for our corporate servers has changed to allowing only provisioned devices. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4475 Any ideas or directions are welcome. |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Inspired by this thread I decided to give MfE a shot at last.
...well, I get all sorts of timeouts etc...I had to wipe the calendar first, and then the show-stopper. ...it kept messing up my contact's work and home emails. I have each contact with Mobile (Home) and Mobile(Work) etc, and it'd do things like turn both mobile numbers into "Work" and "Mobile", but both containing the work number, erasing the home one. ...I then noticed after a few days I had 6-7 of each contact. Had to spend several hours (even with the find duplicates plugin!) merging them all back together. Not cool. Annoying enough, in fact to make me glance at the open source MfE project with a view to pulling that in as a CSSU replacement...but then I remembered how many things I already have on my TODO list ;) |

Also I want to point out a warning finger on Hermes. Hermes have serveral times messed up the contact sync for me. Last time all contacts I added photos on was deleted from my hotmail-account. Nowdays I only add photos on my contacts manually, this doesnot mess up thing sofar. |

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Hi, for those using Mail For Exchange to gmail / m.google.com on their N900.
I recently started receiving the message "Error in communication with exchange server" when syncing MforE (calendar only in my case). Removing N900 calendar entries and running a full resync normally resolves this, but it the full resync failed with the same error as above. Removing the MforE connection and running the MforE connection Wizard also failed with the same error on the page where you enter m.google.com and 443 port. Following the instructions to modify dnsmasq.conf resolved this issue. i.e. 1. Launch X terminal 2. sudo gainroot 3. cd / 4. cd /etc 5. echo "address=/m.google.com/173.194.67.193" >> /etc/dnsmasq.conf 6. exit 7. reboot N900 |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Guys, could you please try "FB fix" i.e. install libcurl3 from extras-devel and report if it solves the problem for you. Disable dnsmasq.conf workaround first of course :)
|
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
yes that fixed it

Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Fantastic - MFE just started messing up and not syncing - found this, installed libcurl3 update - and it works.
Thanks! |
Re: Mail for Exchange (MfE). Blame me here, pls
Hi all,
Just to confirm the Libcurl3 update works on MforE to m.google.com after backing out the dnsmasq.conf work-around. (reboot N900 after each step). For people not clear of the process: Libcurl3 is from extras-dev so you have to enable the Extras Devel catalogue in application manager first (you can disable afterwards): Navigate to the application menu (tap the title bar) Select ‘Application catalogs’ Select ‘New’ Enter a catalog name of ‘Maemo extras-devel’ Enter a web address of http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/ Enter a distribution of ‘fremantle’ Enter components of ‘free non-free’ Select ‘Save’ To apply the libcurl3 update: Launch X terminal sudo gainroot apt-get install libcurl3 exit exit Reboot N900 Finally, many thanks to those commited developers providing us mere mortals with solutions. |

I would like to ask 2 things: 1) During the installation recommended package "ca-certificates". Should I install it too? (do not know if you have to do, but my n900 has several certificates are not valid in "Settings" -> "Certificate Manager". Also My date / time are correct) 2) The file "/ etc / dnsmasq.conf" is not empty. You need to empty it manually? Thank you very much |
