Summary: could not encode item as iCal: work around corrupt
calendar data
Classification: Moblin Projects
Product: SyncEvolution
Version: upstream
Platform: Netbook
OS/Version: Moblin Linux
Status: ASSIGNED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: *Feature Request
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]

At least two users ran into this problem: when a VEVENT was imported into the
Evolution calendar without the corresponding VTIMEZONE definition, then
re-exporting that VEVENT as part of a sync fails with
[ERROR] calendar: could not encode item as iCal: <UID>-rid...
where <UID> is the value of the corresponding UID property of the VEVENT.
Here's a manual workaround:
Have a look at the output of "syncevolution", it'll
tell you the path to the .ics file with the calendar data.
Make sure Evolution is not running (evolution --force-shutdown). Then
check that file, search for the UID and remove the VEVENT which
contains it. Keep a copy, just in case.
Clearly this is tedious. There's no good workaround, because without the
VTIMEZONE, there's not enough information left to export the event correctly in
all cases. As a fallback we could replace the missing VTIMEZONE with a
definition of the current default timezone, which also seems to be what
Evolution does when viewing the event.
