An access-denied error message is displayed for the wrong calendar, and usually,
the errant event is deleted without any error messages or warnings.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure you have one or more calendars available that are GET/PUT enabled
through https on a WebDAV system, and one calendar that is only GET enabled
through https on a WebDAV system (I used the same system, same user/pass,
different directories with various access settings).
2. Subscribe to the GET/PUT enabled calendars, supply the user/pass and check
the "publish automatically" option.
3. Optional: Add/delete a couple of events and see that everything works OK.
4. Subscribe to the GET-only calendar, supply user/pass, but... critical step:
make a deliberate mistake here and check the "publish automatically" option.
5. Add an event to the GET-only calendar. You will notice now that no error
message is displayed, even though Mozilla Calendar is unable to PUT the file. I
checked this on the server. No change in the remote file.
6. Do a "Refresh Remote Calendars".
Actual Results:
An access-denied error message is displayed for the calendar that appears *one
step above* the GET-only calendar, and usually, the wrongly created event is
deleted. The deletion occurrs without any error messages or warnings. Now, if
you do another "Refresh Remote Calendars", the calendar *one further step above*
your GET-only calendar will display the error message. Repeat this a couple of
times, and eventualy the program stops displaying these error messages. Another
way is to quit mozilla entirely and then restart the calendar.
Expected Results:
An error message should be displayed diectly when Mozilla Calendar fails to
update the remote file. This error message should say that I don't have the
proper priviliges to alter the remote calendar, and I should then get the
opportunity to correct my mistake, i.e: put the event in a calendar that I *do*
have PUT priviliges on, or correct any misspellings in my supplied
username/password. I should not get a misguiding error message pointing to a
calendar update task that actually worked.

Should have been fixed by the error-reporting bug.
