Glad to hear that you got it working. I was wondering about how this
should be explained better in the documentation, but I guess it is okay
after all.

Thank you, all. I now have a configuration working.

My particular style of daftness was not realizing that
"syncURL=local://@webdav" refers to a different config than any of:
"zoho-addr", "zoho@webdav", or "target-config@zoho", and so of course
there was no datastore configured.

This is all clearly explained in "SYNCHRONIZATION BEYOND SYNCML", line
932 of the manual.

Sorry for the noise,
Eric

Are these "target config" and "sync config" (as described in the man
page under "SYNCHRONIZATION BEYOND SYNCML" or datastore configurations?

The relevant example is this (from CALDAV AND CARDDAV):

The  following  commands  set up synchronization with a generic
WebDAV server that supports CalDAV, CardDAV and scanning
starting at the root of the server.

  # configure target config
  syncevolution --configure \
   --template webdav \
   syncURL=http://example.com \
   username=123456 \
   "password=!@#ABcd1234" \
   target-config@webdav

  # configure sync config
  syncevolution --configure \
--template SyncEvolution_Client \
syncURL=local://@webdav \
username= \
password= \
webdav \
calendar addressbook

  # initial slow sync
  syncevolution --sync slow webdav

In your case, you seem to be only interested in CardDAV, so let's focus
on just contacts. The commands in your case should be something like
this:

# set up access to zoho.com
syncevolution --configure \
  --template webdav \
  syncURL=https://contacts.zoho.com/carddav/e...@oco.nnor.o
rg/default/ \
  username='e...@oco.nnor.org password='' \
  target-config@zoho

# double-check access
syncevolution --print-items target-config@zoho addressbook

# configure sync config, enabling only addressbook
syncevolution --configure \
  --template SyncEvolution_Client \
  syncURL=local://@webdav \
  username= \
  password= \
  zoho \
  addressbook

# double-check local access
syncevolution --print-items zoho addressbook

# Now "zoho addressbook" is matched with "target-config@zoho
addressbook"
# and we can sync the two:
syncevolution --sync slow zoho

# All following syncs are incremental:
syncevolution zoho

I'm not sure what you configured to get to this point. As your local
~/.config/syncevolution might be in an unclean state now, it might be
worthwhile to throw it away (you don't have any other configs, do you?)
with "rm -rf ~/.config/syncevolution" before running the commands
above.

Here is an example of my script for syncing between local files and
Owncloud (using carddav/caldav). Although this is not using Evolution,
it may help.

By the way, I don't claim this is the only way, or that it is optimal or
that every parameter is required -- my scripts have evolved over time!
But the script below does work.

Note: in that second command, that password= is empty (it is not that I
removed a password). I don't remember if the empty password is needed or
not.

And, as deloptes says, if you are having problems and want to get more
logs, replace the loglevel=1 with loglevel=4 below, and run the sync
with SYNCEVOLUTION_DEBUG=1 (I also specify --daemon=no but that may be
bacause I sometimes need to use gdb on the plugin). Look for logs in
~/.cache/syncevolution/

syncevolution --remove @Test_Files

SAN is server access notification
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SyncML

I think your config is not good, but I have not idea how a carddav/caldav
setup should look like. sorry. I think you have to wait for someone more
experienced to assist, or go through the syncevolution guide again.

One is for sure, if you have a problem enable debugging. I run the syncs
usually so:
SYCNEVOLUTION_DEBUG=3 syncevolution -r loglevel=4 nokia_N9 addressbook
calendar+todo memo

Again big thanks to Patrik.

You can then find the logs in ~/.cache/syncevolution/

I played with this a bit more, and now I have a new error. Progress!
What is SAN? 

I looked in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6352 , and https://dbus.free
desktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html for any references to SAN and Idon't 
find anything.

I write this in the hope I can help, as it took me also a while to get a
working configuration with remote and local part. Luckilly Patrik Ohly was
so kind to help me out and for me it looks like following

I'm going off of the man page for syncevolution.

> It takes two commands to set up CardDAV syncing: once for the target
side (where CardDAV is used as storage) and once for the local side
(with EDS, Akonadi or plain files as local storage).

How do you "link" the two? I now have a carddav config "remote", and an
evolution config "local", but how do I run the "remote" <-> "local"
combined config?

I think I need to do this manually, because I don't see a template for
Evolution mail.

I don't understand where in the man page it tells me how to do that.

I now am getting:

➤ syncevolution --run ev-local-addr
...
[INFO] @default/addressbook: using configured database=zoho-backend
[ERROR] sending message to child failed:
org.syncevolution.gdbuscxx.Exception: 1483751134.3343.16@tara/addressbo
ok: datastore not configured
...

with the configurations:

➤ syncevolution --configure backend=carddav
username='e...@oco.nnor.org' password='' syncURL='https://conta
cts.zoho.com' zoho-backend addressbook
➤ syncevolution --configure syncURL='local://1483751134.3343.16@tara'
database=zoho-backend peerIsClient=1 ev-local-addr addressbook

I don't understand why I would be getting this message, because I
configure the evolution addressbook in the second line. 

Thanks,
Eric

It takes two commands to set up CardDAV syncing: once for the target
side (where CardDAV is used as storage) and once for the local side
(with EDS, Akonadi or plain files as local storage).

You need two datastores for that and thus two backends, not just one.

Not really - how SyncML works is an implementation detail. It's just
the
general concept (configure two sides, hook them up) which needs to be
understood.

Which documentation did you follow to get started?

The README.rst explains the general concept in the "Synchronization
beyond SyncML" section and "CalDAV and CardDAV" how to use that for
CardDAV.

The same content is also on syncevolution.org together with specific
HOWTO articles about other setups. Unfortunately the rendering there
got
broken in several places when moving to a new Drupal version. I'm not
sure yet what to do about that - abandon Drupal, fix its setup (a bit
out of my league), or fix each broken page - all not very attractive :-

It takes two commands to set up CardDAV syncing: once for the target
side (where CardDAV is used as storage) and once for the local side
(with EDS, Akonadi or plain files as local storage).

Re: [SyncEvolution] [INFO] SoupTransport Failure

Also, when I drop the database= property using templates, I get:

[INFO] operation temporarily (?) failed, going to retry in 5.0s before
giving up in 289.6s: PROPFIND: Neon error code 2, no HTTP status: Could
not resolve hostname `': No address associated with hostname


Is there a hostname configuration that I'm not supplying?

syncevolution --configure --template webdav syncURL='https://contacts.z
oho.com/' backend=carddav username='e...@oco.nnor.org'
password='xxx' eric-contacts11@webdav addressbook

Hello,

I'm having some issues setting up syncevolution:

: https://contacts.zoho.com/carddav/e...@oco.nnor.org/default/ via
libsoup: Unauthorized

I'm using the same username/password as I use successfully on my
iPhone, and I can run the --print-items and get a list of vcf items.


$ syncevolution --configure syncURL='https://contacts.zoho.com/carddav/
e...@oco.nnor.org/default/' backend=carddav username='e...@oco.nnor.org
' password='' sync=slow database='1483751134.3343.16@tara'

$ syncevolution --run eric-contacts9

Perhaps one issue is that I don't really understand how syncevolution
works. I think I want to sync between my webdav "backend", and my local
evolution "datastore", using the carddav "backend". 

I guess when I do --print-databases, I refer to them using the thing in
between parenthesis?

What is SyncML? I just want to sync Caldav/Carddav. Do I need to learn
about SyncML? 

I get the same thing when I use the template setup:

$ syncevolution --configure --template webdav syncURL='https://contacts
.zoho.com/carddav/e...@oco.nnor.org/default/' backend=carddav username=
'e...@oco.nnor.org' password='xx' sync=slow
database='1483751134.3343.16@tara' eric-contacts10@webdav addressbook

Thanks for any help,
Eric
