mbstring.func_overload conflict with synchronisation

[Chris G-6]

First steps in trying to synchronise my E71.

I went (with my browser initially, yes I know I need to do it from the
phone) to http://<my server>/egroupware/rpc.php and got the following
messages:-

    You need to set mbstring.func_overload to 0 for rpc.php.
    You should access this URL only with a SyncML enabled device.

... but, but, but I just carefully set mbstring.func_overload to 7 as
requested by the main eGroupware installation sequence.

So, which should it be?

It's OK, I've found the problem, something had set
mbstring.func_overload to 7 in my /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini file and
that was overriding all of eGroupware's settings.  Removing the
php.ini file entry has sorted things out

[where_]

Yes, but eGroupware setup checks the overload to be "7", stating it's must for UTF-8 support.
However, SyncML says it should be "0". So, I always set to "0" in php.ini. BUT...!
I think it might cause me a problem with Hebrew Holidays update in Calendar, cos' their titles appear empty. (utf-8 problem?)

You need both.
eGroupWare needs it at "7", the "rpc.php" needs it to be 0.

To solve this, I have the following in my apache configuration:

<Location /egroupware>
        php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 7
        php_value display_errors Off
</Location>

<Location /egroupware/rpc.php>
        php_admin_value mbstring.func_overload 0
</Location>

What is the equivalent configuration setting for fastcgi in windows 2000 server.
Windows 2000 server has php.ini, what is the apache configuration file.

PHP comes with "php.ini". This file contains the default settings.
Using Apache, it is possible to override the settings for specific webApps
and/or php-files.

The apache configuration file is generally called "httpd.conf"
If you use a different HTTP-server (for instance IIS) then you'll need to find
the equivalent method of setting this.

I do not run servers on MS Windows and can not help you further on this.

I used the setup described but still when syncing this error:

22:08:38 GMT +1:00 [DEBUG] - Error occurred in sync: code 3 = Client not authenticated
22:08:38 GMT +1:00 [ERROR] - Error in preparing sync: Client not authenticated

That's an authentication issue.
What do you see when you go to ..../rpc.php  with a browser on a normal PC?

I only get the following:
--
You should access this URL only with a SyncML enabled device.
