Avaya APP Server 8.0 and Windows Server 2008 with Contact Store

[Aribeiro73]

Hi,

I have two virtual machines:
- Avaya Application Server 8.0.20-14
- Windows Server Web Edition 2008R2 with ContactStore 7.8

I'm trying to connect both so the ContactStore can work with Voicemail in the APP Server. I saw that in the Linux machine, Avaya has a "wizard" in the sharing (admin -> configure -> sharing) to contact-store. After doing that and modify the permitions on the VRL folder so that everyone can read and write, the Windows machine can open the shared folder, but contactstore still gives the error that can't connect to the path.

Does anyone have this working? any ideas?

Thanks for the help

So you can access the share with \\ipaddress\vrl ???
If the answer is yes then you must be sure that you give permissions for the VRL folder by loggin in with ssh
Then enter:

chmod 777 /opt/vmpro/VRL

On the contact store server enter this regkey (when it does not exist)

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Network Alchemy\Voicemail\Directories

Then add a string called VRLDir and set the value to the path to the share. For example if the IP address of the Primary Server was 192.168.42.1 the value would be set to \\192.168.42.1\VRL

Good luck.

Let me know if this works.
I have succesfully connected programs to a share on an Avaya linux system (apps server, ipo server edition and the C110)


BAZINGA!

I'm not insane, my mother had me tested!

No luck.

I can see the folder in windows, but need to put credentials. So contactstore says that the path is invalid or inaccessible.

I think is on the permition i've to give to the folder, with the ssh i already given the permition for it.

do i need to give especial permitions in windows or at the linux server?

my smb.config is like this:
[global]
workgroup = MYGROUP
netbios name = APPLICATIONSERVER
server string = Samba Server Version %v
passdb backend = tdbsam
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
cups options = raw
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
printable = Yes
browseable = No
[contactstore]
path = /opt/vmpro/VRL
valid users = smb-a-root
write list = smb-a-root
read only = No
hosts allow = all

Thanks

Your file is wrong.

Remove the contactstore part and put this in:

[VRL]
comment = Share for VRL
path = /opt/vmpro/VRL
public = Yes
writeable = Yes
guest ok = Yes

That is all you need.
