[Bug 1723080] Re: Caldav Issues with evolution 3.26

[Kirk Wolff]

Thanks Jürgen, I wasn't clear if it was a bug in evolution or in
synology.  I had expected the caldav feature on synology would have been
well supported, apparently not.  After running into this problem, I
decided to look into alternatives to synology altogether and ran accross
nextcloud as it provides several features that I can use for my small
business such as shared calendars and video conference.  Hopefully
someone that just wants to use synology for caldav calendaring and tasks
will run across this and make use of your solution.

Thanks again!
- Kirk

[Bug 1723080] Re: Caldav Issues with evolution 3.26

[Jürgen Kübler]

Hi Kirk,
I found a solution.  The issue seems to be an outdated version of caldav used 
for Synology's webdav server.  Here is what I did
- Expert calendar and tasks list (separately) to ics files
- Deactivate caldav in the webdav server
- Installed the new calendar application in my Diskstation 
(https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/feature/calendar)
- Create a new calendar (not that you cannot delete the default calendar 'my 
calendar', which can be anoying)
- Imported the calendar via web interface
- Created new calendar and task list in evolution
- Used evolution to import task list
Somewhat cumbersome but it worked.  Two positive side effects:
- It was easy to implement separate calendars for 'home' and 'work'
- The new calendar better integrates with my iPhone.  I can now invite others 
to appointments from my iPhone.  This option was not available with the 
previous solution.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Jürgen

I have a suspicion that I cannot verify, though.  It might be that the new 
version of evolution is not backward compatible with older caldav 
specifications.
I stopped using evolution and use Thunderbird and Lightning.  There are some 
glitches but overall it works.

I have the same experience on my evolution.  I am using synology caldav
server (latest) and this hasn't been working for me for some time
(around a year or more).  I have been running the latest ubuntu, and
presently I'm on 18.04.  The attached log is from evolution v3.28.1-2
calendar-factory in debug-all mode.

** Attachment added: "Failure creating caledar object output from command 
"CALDAV_DEBUG=all /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-calendar-factory""

Quick note, the attachment above yields an error message from evolution
that reads:

Cannot create calendar object: Failed to put data: HTTP error code 201
(Created): The server responded with an HTML page, which can mean
there’s an error on the server or with the client request. The used URI
was:
https://synology.wolffelectronicdesign.com:5006/calendars/Kirk/8fd98e334f3a02482f68b77a2cabf68f1efa4e24.ics

The new event does not show up in the calendar until I force a refresh
of the caldav account from evolution.  Note, if I attempt to modify a
calendar entry, and press 'save', I do not get an error.

Received a response from bugzi...@gnome.org.  Basically a complain about
not filing the bug report correctly and a request for further
information that goes beyond my level of expertise as end user.

Advise like

"Also see https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evolution/Debugging#CalDAV how to provide
debug output which would be needed here."

is not helpful to me.

I can't help here, anymore and will stop using bugzilla for gnome.org
