Hi Frank,
Thanks for the detailed info! It sounds like I need to stick with T68
for now, and give the SOGo folks more time to re-engineer around the
major changes that Mozilla has made to T78.
I have one user that keeps "auto upgrading" to T78. I will just need to
disable his upgrade capability for the time being.
Best regards,
Greg

Hi Greg,
I followed the steps at https://github.com/inverse-inc/sogo-connector
which are the ones you will find in the README.md.
The copy cmd generates the config for your site so yes, my lucky guess
was I renamed it to my SOGo server's public URL.
In the file
custom/<mySOGoserver>/chrome/content/sogo-connector/general/custom-preferences.js
I did the following
demo: force_char_pref("sogo-connector.baseURL",
"https://demo.sogo.nu/SOGo";);
mySOGoserver: force_char_pref("sogo-connector.baseURL",
"https://www.<mySOGoserver>/SOGo");
then I ran the build commands and zipped the stuff back into the XPI
file.
For that worked in the sense that Thunderbird found my calendars and
my address book. What didn't work though:
- Not the full address book was synced (according to Ludovic that is
due to a bug in Thunderbird; there is a workaround using SOGo 5.0.1
and the latest SOPE version. That *did not* fix it for me!)
- I cannot edit calendar entries in Thunderbird; when saving an entry
I get the message that it recently was changed on the server and if I
want to reload or safe anyways. Saving does not work after either.
So for now I stick with T68 and the working environment, happy to test
the "new" stuff though as well.

Pardon the newbie questions...
What are the steps involved to create an XPI from the Connector code
currently available on Github? I'm used to modifying the "demo" XPI
to suit our environment, but this appears to be a completely
different process than I have done in the past. I cloned the repo
(pretty standard), but where do I go from there? The instructions in
README.md state that I should "cp -a custom/sogo-demo
custom/mysite". Does "mysite" need to be set to something specific?
Does it need to be the fully-qualified URL of my SOGo server, or
something else? The instructions also state that I should "customize
the sogo-connector.baseURL value" in
"custom/mysite//chrome/content/sogo-connector/general/custom-preferences.js".
However, I do not see "sogo-connector.baseURL" in this file. I see
compilation instructions for SOGo itself in the Wiki, but I can't
find instructions for compiling the Thunderbird Connector.
Thanks for any direction you can provide to me!
