Accessing calendar data stored on a Scalix server using webdav reports error and sets remote calendar to read only mode.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a "remote Calendar" for a Scalix server
2. Download calendar data
Actual Results:  
Calendar in read-only mode

Expected Results:  
Calendar should be writable

This usually happens when the calendar data is malformed.  Specifically, it fails to properly identify the timezone associated with a DTSTART.  Please attach the file here so we can be sure that's the problem.

I had to modify the original file retrieved from server because it contains some business information, but what remained still causes the error. So I think it should suffice.

Configuring Sunbird to connect to Scalix 10.0.1.6 as an iCal the error captured in the Screen grab is obtained.

Please don't add screenshots of error messages that are not searchable. 
Just copy and paste the error message text from dialog or JavaScript console.
