User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1b3pre) Gecko/20090304 Firefox/3.0.5
Build Identifier: 

Using Thunderbird 3.0b2 and Lightning 20090304 nightly build one of my Google Calendars doesn't show any events. Many occurrences of the error

Fehler: Error parsing XML streamReferenceError: getTimezoneService is not defined

appear in the error console.
The calendar is not owned by me, but shared privately, for w.i.w.

Reproducible: Always

Do you access your calendar via CalDAV protocol or Provider for Google Calendar extension? In the latter case: Do you use the most recent nightly build of the extension?

Could you copy and paste the complete message from Tools > Error Console that contains the source file and line number information?

I access the calendar via GData Provider. (side note: it would be awfully nice to have a way to lookup/configure the provider for an existing calendar, is there a bug for that?)

Yes, the provider extension is kept up-to-date using the nightly updater extension like the Lightning build.

That's the fun part, that is the whole error message. No file and line number are given.

I haven't been able to reproduce the error, but this should fix all problems with the timezone service getter not being found. It also fixes the strict warning caused by bug 329570 and unanonymizes some functions there.

[P.P.]

Unfortunately I don't know how to use the fix.

I get the same error with the latest Sunbird nightly (Google provider) and I can reproduce it.

Download the ical from here: http://www.cs.univie.ac.at/teaching_description.php?tid=10171
Import it with Google Calendar and as a result Sunbird doesn't show any events anymore. 
Instead it creates the XML error message.
When removing the imported events, the error message in Sunbird disappears again and all events are back.

When I try to import the .ics directly into Sunbird I get following error:

[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIScriptableUnicodeConverter.convertFromByteArray]"  nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///D:/Programme/sunbird/modules/calUtils.jsm -> file:///D:/Programme/sunbird/calendar-js/calIcsParser.js :: ip_parseFromStream :: line 223"  data: no]

r=ssitter but I'd like you to update the method description to the changed interface.

Done, also added the same parameter+description for createTodo().

Pushed to comm-central <http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/rev/adf66ec7ddde>

Fantastic! Using the tinderbox build from
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/lightning/tinderbox-builds/comm-central/win32-xpi-win32/1236576291/
the errors are gone and events from the Google Calendar show up once again.

These bugs are likely targeted at Lightning 1.0b1, not Lightning 1.0. If this change was done in error, please adjust the target milestone to its correct value. To filter on this bugspam, you can use "lightning-10-target-move".
