This guide is intended to people who want a lightweight calendar server at home, behind an internet box, up 24h/24h, with very low consumption, and chose a cheap Raspberry Pi. This guide has been written according to Raspberry Pi 2 model B but shall be working also with others versions. This guide explains how to install DaviCal calendar server and optionally InfCloud CalDAV/CardDAV web clients. It assume an other linux computer is available on the LAN with an Internet connexion.
Hardware tested:
- 2015-11-07: Raspberry Pi 2 model B
System tested:
- 2015-11-07: Raspbian jessie released on 2015-09-24
Software versions tested:
- 2015-11-07: TBD DAViCal xxx, PostgreSql xxx, InfCloud xxx
HW and network installation guide
Before starting, what you need
- a Raspberry with RJ45 LAN connector (Pi 2 model B for example)
- a Raspberry Pi Case (optional, but advised)
- a 8 Go micro-SD card
- a Raspberry Pi universal power supply (or equivalent)
- an internet box with a free RJ45 connexion
- an Ethernet cable (RJ45)
- an other computer with an internet connexion and a micro-SD card adapter
See distributors on Raspberry shop page: https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/
What you don't need but can be useful
- an USB keyboard
- an USB mouse
- an HDMI display
Preparing Raspberry Pi micro-SD card from a linux computer
- download Raspbian image from https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/
wget https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_latest unzip 2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie.zip md5sum 2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie.img # a24eed8b6338940013cdcd5a74a3935d 2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie.img
- flash your micro-SD card (carefully identify micro-SD card device letter and replace sdX with correct drive!)
# before micro-SD card connexion, have a look to your computer drives (to preserve) ls -l /dev/sd? # after micro-SD card connexion, have a look to the new micro-SD card drive (to write to) ls -l /dev/sd? dd bs=2M if=2015-09-24-raspbian-jessie.img of=/dev/sdX sync # if root required, you probably need to prefix dd command with sudo
Connecting Raspberry Pi to LAN and boot
Okay, you need a RJ45 cable between Raspberry and your box, insert micro-SD card into your Raspberry and plug on power supply. You can check:
- near micro-SD card, red light ON
- green light blinking few seconds and then OFF
- near RJ45 connector yellow and red lights ON
If red and green lights are ON near micro-SD card, you may have a problem with your SD-card (missing, wrongly inserted, badly flashed, ...).
Now, you just have to guess your Raspberry Pi IP address! What you can try:
- have a look to your box administration page
