Profil gets overriden from new Profil

[lenusch]

Hi,

today we installed on a Iphone two Profiles. But the First one gets always overriden from second one. What am i missing or is this a bug or something which can't be handeled? That would be really bad :-) :-(

Please kindly advice.

Mhh, I'm not an iPhone owner/user myself, and we followed documentation we found about iOS stuff. Maybe it has something to do with the string here https://github.com/UltimateByte/plesk_mail_autoconfig/blob/master/iphone.mobileconfig#L49 and here https://github.com/UltimateByte/plesk_mail_autoconfig/blob/master/iphone.mobileconfig#L73 that would maybe need to be different in order to prevent overlap?

Docs: PayloadUUID	String	A globally unique identifier for the profile. The actual content is unimportant, but it must be globally unique. In macOS, you can use uuidgen to generate reasonable UUIDs.

This is probably the Problem!?

Maybe some Template here - could you merge that? https://github.com/mritd/strongswan/blob/master/generate-mobileconfig.sh

or this: https://github.com/hunk/get-UDID

or this: https://ryanbritton.com/2016/07/creating-a-mobileconfig-file-to-capture-ios-udid-information/

but i am not able to set this up. :-S

Problem is I don't speak PHP. I tested the above bash script but I don't get what's it's actually doing. I need to talk about this to my coworkers who know more PHP than me, but expect it to be quite long since we got other priorities at the moment. We kind of consider the iOS thing like a bonus.

uhm okay, could you make a paid request out of it? As our Customers reporting this behaviour

[UltimateByte]

Well, we're a hosting company, so we don't code for other people. We are mainly developing this based on our needs and are kindly sharing it with the world. But be sure I'll try to see what we can do about this as soon as I can.

Awaiting for this, please, don't forget that your customers can also use the manual way on their Apple devices if this doesn't work for them.

[lenusch]

Thank you, i will await your reply.

Well, we examined this many times and didn't come up with a solution. I'll keep it open, until hopefully one day we come with a fix for this. In the meantime, I added an entry here about that https://github.com/UltimateByte/plesk_mail_autoconfig/wiki/Limitations

Good news @lenusch, @MegaS0ra is on his way to bring a solution to this.

I think I have solved it, at least it works with the new config I just updated on github. If it is not too late, please keep us updated :) Thanks
