Re: [SOGo] Invitation of resources in SOGo (mailcow dockerized with SOGo) lead to crash of calendar entry

[Christian Mack]

Hello

Which version of SOGo do you use?

Did you try to change the acl via sogo-tool from commandline?

In comparison of a normal account to a resource account, the resource
account automatically accepts invitations from the same sogo server in
its personal calendar, if it is not busy at that time.
This does not work for invitations from external people/accounts.
You also can define, how many appointments can there be at the same
time, before it gets announced as busy.

This all has nothing to do with other accounts beeing able to invite an
normal or resource account.
For that you need to check setting PreventInvitations and
PreventInvitationsWhitelist.
sogo-tool user-preferences get settings ACCOUNTNAME Calendar|grep
--color -e PreventInvitations -e PreventInvitationsWhitelist

If PreventInvitations is set to 1 for the invited account and the
inviting account is not listed in PreventInvitationsWhitelist, that
appointment which tries to invite that account is invalid, and will
produce an error message in the web frontend.
In clients using calDAV, that error message is not always displayed, but
as the appointment is invalid, it will not be possible to store it in SOGo.
E.g. Thunderbird is known, to not display that error and silently
discarting that appointment.

In order for free/busy lookups to work, at least the personal calendar
of that account needs DateAndTime access for the inviting account.
But you should be able to invite an account even when no free/busy
information is available.
It should then be shown as always free.


Kind regards,
Christian Mack

[SOGo] Invitation of resources in SOGo (mailcow dockerized with SOGo) lead to crash of calendar entry

[b...@chamaeleoncloud.de]

Hi all,

I'm a bit stuck in the following problem:
When I try to invite a resource for an appointment,  the web interface 
closes the appointment popup (buggy) without saving or anything else.
In SOGo logs I dont see an error nor a warning.

What I found out so far:
All users have in personal calendar "... / sharing" = None for "public 
access".
So each time I wanted to invite a user it came to the same crash. As soon as 
I've corrected the entry to "View the Date & Time"
for public access, it seems to work in SOGo.

For a resource I cannot do a login nor can I change the grant for "public 
access".
For that I'm not able to invite / block resources.

Has anyone else the same artifacts?

Thank you  for your support!
