Description

[Stuart Halliday]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: 0.5 lighting, TB 1.5.0.12, Win XP sp2

When receiving a calender event from a client today in Thunderbird, Lighting displayed in the message pane of TB a date of December 1970! 
The actual date of meeting was set to 1st Aug in the afternoon (I think).
When this meeting was accepted, the notification by Lightning was set to 1999!



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
No idea.
Possible its due to the 1st day of the month.
Actual Results:  
Date of meeting I was asked to accept was set to 1970.

We've had calendar meetings from this person before and they were ok.

Comment 1

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

Using Lightning 0.7pre (2007081104) with Thunderbird 2.0.0.7pre (20070811) I get the following error when opening the .eml file created from your comment:

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIMsgMessageService.messageURIToMsgHdr]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://lightning/content/imip-bar.js :: getMsgImipMethod :: line 212"  data: no]

As the result the Accept/Decline buttons are not shown. I don't know if you saw the same error or if the Bugzilla line wrap screwed up the content or if this is a different issue. Next time you could just attach the file instead of posting them as inline comment.

Nevertheless I was able to save the meeting.ics file attached to the email. Importing the file into Lightning showed it at the correct time -> WORKSFORME

Comment 2

[Stuart Halliday]

Send me a copy of this 0.7pre of Lightening and I'll test it on the original email.


P.S.
I wasn't offered an option of attaching a file to this bug report.

I'll try and add it.

Comment 3

[Stuart Halliday]

Attachment: email file with the buggy date

Email taken from Thunderbird and email address mangled before submitting.

Comment 4

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

Comment on attachment 276377 [details]
email file with the buggy date

Opening this attachment in Lightning 0.7pre (2007082106) with Thunderbird 2.0.0.7pre (20070821) gives the same results as described in Comment #1.

Opening this attachment in Lightning 0.7pre (2007082106) with Thunderbird 1.5.0.13pre (20070821) gives the following error:

  Error: this.startDate has no properties
  Source File: file:///<snip>/js/calEvent.js Line: 230

This might cause the 1970 date and is caused by an error in Thunderbird 1.5 (returning the .ics file content still quoted-printable, Bug 351997) that is solved in Thunderbird 2.0.

Could you retest if the issue still exists using Thunderbird 2 instead of 1.5?

Comment 5

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

Stuart, did it work using a Thunderbird 2 build as requested in Comment #4?

Comment 6

[Stuart Halliday]

Kind of hard for me to confirm it as I don't have access to that version of Lightning.

I asked in comment #2 to be sent 0.7pre and I never got one.

The email is available for anyone to test in Comment #3.

Comment 7

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

I don't ask to test a different Lightning version. I'd like you to retest with a Thunderbird 2 build and your Lightning 0.5 build. You can download Thunderbird 2 from <http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/all.html>.

Comment 8

[Stuart Halliday]

I've installed TB 2.0.0.6 and Lightning 0.5 and retested with the above email.

It shows the correct Event Invitation date.

Hooray.

Shame I can't upgrade to V2 of TB until its IMAP bugs get fixed.
Oh hum... :-)
