Works for me on Bedework.

I'm running davical here and have the same problem.

I have read access on an other calendar and can't dismiss the events of that calendar.

Perhaps when the rewriting of the event to the server fails due to the calendar being read-only, the calendar could be set to ignore alarms and a dialog box could be displayed saying that had happened.

For a read-only remote calendar this will most likely be what people want (i.e. to not see any alarms at all for that calendar) but since the item is only currently accessible through the calendar properties dialog after the calendar is created, and not during the actual creation process, many users will not be aware of the option at all.

I'm seeing this bug a lot, because I have a slow system.  It happens only when my system is really busy, and does not even require that I dismiss I task.  So I suspect there's a timer for some function expiring, before some dependent operation completes, thereby causing a race condition of some sort.

If you guys can get action on this bug, very soon, I will add my error messages and more info here.  Otherwise, I will create a dupe so I can explain what I am seeing.
