I ran into this bug when running trunk, and I found an interesting "fix"

I was testing and developing on 10.6, and since ":" cannot be escaped on HFS+, it fails. But when I moved my calendarserver install to my Linux server, where ":" is no problem, it began working immediately.

Version 3 trunk.  Running it on standard OSX machine.  I only configured the 
calddav-dev.plist and use the ./run command.  Which shouldn't matter since 
Iphone works fine

When setting up addressbook client it fails during the auto discovery phase.  
The configuration plist file had to be changed in order for it to connect.  Do 
you get the same ABSPlugin on your vcf files on the server.

well it works just fine for me... I've made no low level changes to either my 
mac or iphone and addressbook syncing just works...

What build version of DCS are you using here? and what are you running this on?

I am wondering if there is anything special that needs to be changed to get OSX 
AddressBook desktop client to properly use the CardDAV server.  I did have to 
edit the .plist file on my computer because Addressbook desktop client kept 
screwing up the path.  IPhone with OS 4 (deployed the config through iphone 
configuration utility) is working perfectly and AddressBook desktop client will 
sync with the data input by the iphone.  Anything added or modified by 
Addressbook desktop client  doesn't post to the server though (i checked in the 
data folder).

Below are two interesting lines that come off the server log when trying to add 
or modify


PUT 
/addressbooks/__uids__/djackson/addressbook/6AE69D7F-CB3B-414A-9EE7-2AF6B6A69F60-ABSPlugin.vcf
 HTTP/1.1


2010-08-02 10:49:47-0400 [-] [caldav-0]  [-] 
[twistedcaldav.method.put_addressbook_common#error] u"error: illegal escape 
sequence: '\\:'"

1) Why is it adding the "ABSPlugin" into the vcf file
2) The illegal escape is only being posted when Addressbook desktop client 
tries to add or modify.  During a sync or startup it doesn't show that error.
