748245 - No free/busy status in Invite Attendees window with CalDAV after enabling cache

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: Provider: CalDAV, defect)

Description

[Krzysztof Nowicki]

I'm using Lightning to access my Exchange calendar via the DavMail gateway (using CalDAV). When creating a new event I'm using the Invite Attendees window to add participants to the meeting. Unfortunately in the recent Lightning versions the Invite Attendees window doesn't show free/busy status of any of the participants (all rows are red).

However when I disable cache for the Exchange calendar in Lightning the free/busy status display starts working again.

If I enable cache again it still works, however only until I restart Thunderbird. After that it doesn't work again (until I disable the cache again of course).

This has been reproduced on Thunderbird 11.0.1 with Lightning 1.3 (both Linux and Windows).

Same problem here
Thunderbird 15 on Windows, Lightning 1.7, DavMail 3.9.9-1976.

Turning off "Cache" and restarting TB works around this problem.

I've tested this on the latest nightly with Zimbra 9.0 prerelease and it works for me.
