on Sunbird 1.0 beta1 I have created an .ics file using the sunbird export function. Unfortunately, trying to import this particular file using  the iCal import function (Version 4.0.2 (1379)) I am running into an error, reading that the file is not accessible.

2. save file on desktop
3. opening iCal to import .ics file
Actual Results:  
file not accessible

Expected Results:

Please use the ical validator at http://severinghaus.org/projects/icv/ to check if the exported ical is valid. We are using libical which mostly produced valid .ics files, so Im assuming this is not our bug.

peco, is this still an issue using the recently released Lightning 1.0?

Comment 3

[peco]

the issue has been fixed by using Lightning 1.0 and an import/export to/from ical is working.

peco, thanks for your response. Resolving as INVALID per comment#3, not FIXED or WORKSFORME because the cause is unknown.
