397402 - Calendar invite always goes in first calendar, fails if read-only

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 351745

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

[Andrew Daviel]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
Build Identifier: TB 2.0.0.6  + Lightning 0.5

I have several calendars. The first is a read-only calendar on the Web (e.g. public holidays) which rejects PUT requests. If I click Accept on an emailed invitation, Lightning attempts
to add it to this calendar and fails, marking it as read-only. Since it is read-only, I cannot move the event to a writable calendar by editing it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
2. Highlight a writable calendar (e.g. second in the list) in the calendar
   panel
1. Click "Accept" button on "this message contains an invitstion.." in message
   panel


Actual Results:  
An error message appears "there has been an error reading data for calendar"
The calendar is placed in read-only mode, but the event may be displayed
on the screen.
If the unwritable calendar is already marked "read-only" in Lightning, Lightning
silently fails to write the event anywhere.

Expected Results:  
A dialogue box should appear asking me which calendar I wish to place the event in. Ideally, it should not list read-only calendars, and should remember my
preference.

It is possible to work around this bug by re-ordering the calendars in the list. But this must be done by deleting calendars and re-adding them - hardly convenient.

The upcoming Lightning 0.7 release allows to choose the calendar.
