1010099 - ICS Files not importing correctly - not appearing in Calendar

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

Attachment: simpleology_task_4247811.ics

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140506152807

Steps to reproduce:

Downloaded .ics files from Simpleology.com, then imported them into Lightning via 'Events and Tasks | Import..., so that they will appear in the calendar. 


Actual results:

This used to work - does not work in v.2.6.4. They do not appear but seem to be in there somewhere, as attempting to import a second time causes an error - 'An error occurred when writing to the calendar Home!'. Error Code: MODIFICATION_FAILED.


Expected results:

The event appears at the correct time and place in the Calendar.

The attached sample contains only one event zero length event for 01-Jan-1970 00:00. Did you scroll back to this month and year to ensure that it is displayed?

In addition it doesn't pass validator <http://severinghaus.org/projects/icv/>:
> Sorry, your calendar could not be parsed.
> Error: Error was: Error at line 4: Illegal property [TZ]

Hi Stefan

Looks as if the bug is in Simpleology's export feature instead then - I will let them know about it.

I did scroll back at one stage btw - the event does not appear.

Thanks

Keith
