cannot see events created by other clients when using CalDAV

[Yahuxo]

Binary package hint: evolution

I am using the Apple calendar server from intrepid as a CalDAV server. When using Mozilla Sunbird 0.9 as a client on Windows or GNU/Linux adding and modifying calendar events works fine. When using the Gnome Evolution calendar software on hardy for viewing the existing calendar events nothing is shown (also no error message or something). When adding a new event in Evolution the event seems to be visible in both CalDAV clients (Sunbird/Evolution).

Don't know if this has something to do with it: When looking at the CalDAV URL using an ordinary web browser I can see that Mozilla Sunbird creates on .ics file for each event which seems to have a GUID-style filename (e.g. "05eb2ec5-57c1-4bd7-8ff4-4b4c8bec0f22.ics". Evolution seems to use timestamp-style filenames (something like "20090101T090001Z.ics).

It would be great if I could access my events on the calendar server with Evolution and take advantage the Gnome-integration Evolution provides.

Thanks for the report, could you send this upstream to bugzilla.gnome.org since you're getting the issue? for forwarding instructions please have a look to http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME ; thanks in advance.

A bug report has been filed upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=570196.

could you try if that's still an issue in jaunty?

[Yahuxo (yahuxo)]

It's much better in jaunty, I can now see events created by other users. Editing events that were not created by Evolution (Sunbird in my tests) did not work.

Anyway, working read access is already a good progress!

is this still an issue? if yes can you please reopen the upstream bug report.

I tested it now with a lucid installation and it seems to work.
