In principle, KOrganizer (kontact?) should be able to _subscribe_ to
calendars hosted by DCS, if EnableMonolithicCalendars is enabled
(default).
The problem is an "exception" hacked into CalendarServer/twistedcaldav/
resource.py: Whenever a normal browser connects to an …/
<calendarname>/-URL, it does NOT get the collection as ics file, but a
nicely rendered HTML page.
KOrganizer's problem is that it cannot be destinguished from konqueror
(in my case, it identifies itself as "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible;
Konqueror/3.5; Linux) KHTML/3.5.7 (like Gecko) SUSE") and therefore
gets an HTML page instead of an ics file. The check is
119 if config.EnableMonolithicCalendars:
[ comments, explanation, telling it's a hack ... ]
132 agent = request.headers.getHeader("user-agent")
133 if agent is not None and (
134 agent.startswith("Mozilla/") and
agent.find("Gecko") != -1
135 ):
136 renderAsHTML = True
137 else:
138 renderAsHTML = False
I added a (dirty) check to evaluate a certain get request, and then
disables that special handling for browsers:
134 agent.startswith("Mozilla/") and
agent.find("Gecko") != -1 and not request.uri.endswith("/?ics")
This way all browsers and kontact can get ics-files whenever they add
"?ics" to the calendar path, e.g. https://www.example.com/calendars/doe/calendar/?ics
Of course, this is not a real solution, but I think it's an acceptable
workaround because it affects only a single line and does not change
the behavior of the server otherwise at all.

Markus
