The following procedure assumes that you have a web-server that's accessible from the internet. Mine is an [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache2] webserver, running on [http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ Ubuntu 10.04 LTS], therefore any references to commands, paths, etc, will have come from that set-up. | The following procedure assumes that you have a web-server that's accessible from the internet.

If you are upgrading from Z-Push v1 its recommended that you start from scratch; move your old installation to a different folder (eg <code>mv /var/ww/z-push | If you are upgrading from Z-Push v1 its recommended that you start from scratch; move your old installation to a different folder (eg <code>mv /var/ww/z-push /var/www/z-push-v1</code>), then install v2 to <code>/var/ww/z-push</code>. Client devices shouldn't need to have their accounts re-added/re-sync'ed following the new install as Z-Push should manage this anyway. However I found that this doesn't always work properly and have ended up needing to re-add accounts to some mobile devices. | ||

# Browse to your server, eg http://as.domain.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync | |||
#* You should be prompted for a username and password (for an account on your Zimbra server) | |||
#* If Apache has failed to deliver the prompt to you, check the webserver log. Either your website isn't configured correctly or Z-Push experienced a PHP error. | |||
# Enter a valid Zimbra user/pass | |||
#* You should get a page showing "Z-Push - Open Source ActiveSync" which doesn't contain errors - this confirms that connectivity exists between all the required components (Apache, Z-Push, Zimbra), and that they are basically OK. | |||

The below is just an example, see the <code>INSTALL</code> file that comes with the Zimbra backend to work out the correct settings for your environment. | |||
