z-push-admin broken in v60

[stylnchris]

z-push-admin doesn't work.

Seems like you found the solution yourself: https://discourse.mailinabox.email/t/version-60-for-ubuntu-22-04-is-released/9558/42
@JoshData any idea why the two lines got initially deleted?

Just adding the summary from the MIAB forum into this specific issue to help it get resolved. The link @hija has provided above only provides part of the solution.

I managed to get Z-Push to work with a few changes to the PHP files, without resorting to installing PHP 7.4:

Edit /usr/local/lib/z-push/backend/ipcsharedmemory/ipcsharedmemoryprovider.php as per this post.

Edit /usr/local/lib/z-push/policies.ini as per the above post.

Add the symbolic links as per this post.

Edit /usr/local/lib/z-push/backend/caldav/caldav.php as per bob4os's instructions at the end of this thread.

Good points, @beemach.

Do you know why changing the policies.ini is required? I don't see how this fixes any issues caused by using PHP8 instead of PHP7.

Will this fix be pushed to the master branch any time soon? I don't want to be messing with the filesystem on my MITB box incase these changes break an official fix that get's released.

I ran a script based on the above links and comments. It fixed z-push for some basic usage by a Microsoft Mail client... Your mileage may vary.

#2236
PR to fix the z-push repo with updated repo

Now that Z-Push is updated to 2.7.0 for v62, I've opened a PR to fix the rest of this issue #2263

You can create the below bash script and run as sudo to achieve the same.

#!/bin/bash
PHP_VER=8.0
rm -f /usr/sbin/z-push-{admin,top}
echo '#!/bin/bash' > /usr/sbin/z-push-admin
echo php$PHP_VER /usr/local/lib/z-push/z-push-admin.php '"$@"' >> /usr/sbin/z-push-admin
chmod 755 /usr/sbin/z-push-admin
echo '#!/bin/bash' > /usr/sbin/z-push-top
echo php$PHP_VER /usr/local/lib/z-push/z-push-top.php '"$@"' >> /usr/sbin/z-push-top
chmod 755 /usr/sbin/z-push-top

Feedback welcome.
