701334 - Sending Invitations from CalDAV-Shared Calendars does not work

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Calendar :: Provider: CalDAV, defect)

Description

[Lukas Ruf]

Attachment: Illustration of aforementioned problem

Dear all

First of all: Thanks for the great work you are doing!

Regarding the current issue:
* For the past few beta-releases and now final release 1.1 of Lightning, I have not been able to send invitations to anybody when entering an appointment in a CalDAV-shared calendar.
* When entering an appointment in a CalDAV-calender, I can add invitees, the 'send invitation' tick-box remains grayed out and immutable.
* When saving the newly entered appointment, invitations are not sent.
* It works perfectly with local calendars.

Thanks for any hint on how to fix this problem.

Best regards
Lukas

Duplicate of for example bug #696782.

Your CalDAV server advertises scheduling and mail sending capabilities I would guess. 
Enable the debug log of lightning in about:config and post it here, please.

More a duplicate of bug #580787 although that one is WCAP.

Lukas please provide a debug.log otherwise this will be closed. Thank you.

Attachment: debug.log -- see comment

As requested, please find attached the debug.log

My sequence:

* added event by mouse-pointer into calendar "sharedlr" -> "New Event"
* changed to SUMMARY
* opened the item to added invitee Felix Möller
* "Saved"

Please find the corresponding screenshot next.

No email sent, at least no request for "sending".

Might it be possible that a problem exists when requesting freebusy for [e-mail] -- which does not 

Thanks for your support!

Lukas

PS: Please let me know if I may provide further logs.  If so: can I somehow export the complete debug.log at once instaed of copy-and-paste from the error console?

Looking at your URL I think you are using DAViCal.

Could you provide the DAV header? This should be something like:
Date: Sat, 03 Dec 2011 16:07:42 GMT

Server: CalendarServer/3.2(rexportiert) Twisted/11.0.0 TwistedWeb/9.0.0

DAV: 1, access-control, calendar-access, calendar-schedule, calendar-auto-schedule, calendar-availability, inbox-availability, calendar-proxy, calendarserver-private-events, calendarserver-private-comments, calendarserver-sharing, calendarserver-sharing-no-scheduling, calendar-query-extended, addressbook, extended-mkcol, calendarserver-principal-property-search

Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8

Content-Length: 320

Connection: close

This can be either done by Wireshark or by Firebug pointed to the CalDAV URL.

Thanks for the fast answer.

Yes, I am using DAViCAL.

Here is what I get:

Are you getting actual errors in the error console, maybe related to something not being initialized?

It could be that this bug is fixed by the patch for bug 723533. This bug contains a windows xpi with the fix applied. Please test this patch to see if it solves your issue also.

The patch will be contained in the next release, Lightning 1.3 and its beta release which will be available very soon.

[Philipp Kewisch [:Fallen][📱📆]]

This might work with the patch for bug 787780, it does some fixes for shared calendars. Please retest with tomorrow's nightly builds.

Closing this as INCOMPLETE, please test as mentioned above and reopen if its still an issue.

[Lukas Ruf]

Thanks a lot for all your effort.

Unfortunately, it still does not work for me.  Irrespective of whatever settings I make use of DAViCal, I do not get Lightning (latest stable version) to send an invitation.  Neither for colleagues on the same DAViCal server nor in other organizations. 

Thanks,
Lukas
