Sametime Community name

Hi everybody

where is defined the community of a Sametime 12 Premium dockerized version?

In the "community" container there is a sametime.ini file but the field ST_COMMUNITY_ID is left empty.

What happens is that when I start a meeting via web browser and I try to access that meeting with the mobile app I cannot use my login but I must connect as a guest because (is said) the meeting I am connecting to is of a "different community".

In the app settings there is a field with the name of the community but what name is this one?

Thanks a lot

If you need to add "old" sametime.ini parameters you could enter these parameters in the custom.env starting with STI_SECTION_SETTINGNAME

e.g. STI_CONFIG_ST_COMMUNITY_ID=mycommunityname

If you need to modify more sametime.ini parameters you could export the sametime.ini from within the running container to the local file system (e.g. create subfolder within sametime installation folder stcustomfiles)

> docker cp st12_community_1:/local/notesdata/sametime.ini stcustomfiles/sametime.ini

You could check files within running docker container

> docker exec -it st12_community_1 /bin/bash
> ls /local/notesdata -l

Change your settings within the stcustomparam/sametime.ini file and add the following parameter to the docker-compose.yaml file to load your local sametime.ini upon docker start

> services:
community:
.........
volumes:
- ./stcustomfiles/sametime.ini:/local/notesdata/sametime.ini
networks:

There are more sametime community files you maybe need to export and implement (e.g. policies.user.xml, UserInfoConfig.xml)

mmmh

i put

STI_CONFIG_ST_COMMUNITY_ID=mycommunityname

in my custom.env file

docker-compose down

docker-compose up -d

nothing

i put that parameter in

custom.env.template file

and re run ./install.sh

but nothing

ST_COMMUNITY_ID

in sametime.ini (container sametime12-community-1 ) il still empty.

Anyway why do you write about "old" sametime.ini parameters?

I just want to connect to a meeting launched with a browser with the mobile android app using my LDAP (i.e. Domino) login and not only as a guest.

While I am forced to us a guest user because the community "used" by the browser seams not to be the same of that I write in the App community configuration. I don't even know what is the "community" used by the browser (not the one used by the Notes client). I thought it was defined in the ST_COMMUNITY_ID field of sametime.ini in the community container ...

Is there a different way to do so?

thanks a lot

Hello,

the parameter needs additional "underscore".

2 underscores between STI and sametime.ini section (CONFIG) AND 2 underscores between sametime.ini section and sametime.ini parameter

STI__CONFIG__ST_COMMUNITY_ID=mycommunityname

You could check the syntax with the parameter about Auth Token within custom.env

# Auth Token setting
#STI__ST_BB_NAMES__ST_AUTH_TOKEN=

You could also (as i prefer as more flexible) export the sametime.ini to your filesystem and use this sametime.ini file on docker start. See my first entry for the parameters

Add the files to your docker-compose.yml

Hi Tomasso,

If you want to look at your overall Sametime 12 on Docker configuration, you may look into custom.env file, it has all the information about the connectivity of Sametime 12 environment.

Hope this information helps.

Kind regards,
