Hi,

Same issue here (after Thunderbird update to 24.1.1 on x64 ubuntu 13.10 + Lightning upgrade to 2.6.3)
I can confirm that this is happening on Thunderbird 24.1.1/Lightning 2.6.3 on Windows 7 and XP platforms as well.
Something has broken thats not popping up the box to send the alert.
Looks like a duplicate of Bug 942576.

Do you get any error messages in Tools > Error Console during the steps you have listed above? If yes: please copy and paste them here.
Flags: needinfo?(siim)
No error message unfortunately
Flags: needinfo?(siim)
Yes, no error message and made no difference.
I can confirm that rolling back to 24.1.0 and lightning 2.6.2 resolves the issue.  Anyone else wishing to roll back can download the proper versions from these two URLS.

I can further report that just rolling back lightning to 2.6.2 resolves the issue.
calendar-js/calDavRequestHandlers.js
components/calDavCalendar.js

have both changed between the versions.  The rest of the tree, as best as I can tell, is the same.
I think the problem may be at line 161 in calendar-js/calDavRequestHandlers.js.  The function multigetSyncHandler now has 7 parameters, except in this call, it has the original 6, so fields arent where they are supposed to be.  I think that probably putting another null in the parameters list might fix things.  I will test and report back.
See Bug 930132 Comment 54 and following about the incomplete multigetSyncHandler patch.
Thanks Stefan, that's the fix.  How soon can we get a new 2.6.4 release with those patches?
Depends on: 930132
@Stefan: should we rather close Bug 942576 as a dup of this one here, since here seems to exist more information and a workaround description...
I confirm Bug 930132 Comment 56 patch (Attachment #8339151 [details] [diff]) fix the problem and make appear again the box with an option to send an update notification to attendees. Thanks!
Thanks. But now I have find a new bug: If I get an invitation, I can't accept or reject it, because there is no Checkbox to accept or reject the invitation.
Issue resolved with latest patch in Bug 930132.
Comment 16 is a duplicate of Bug 927346, so closing this one now...

Works well with Sven's patch. Thanks for the help!
Same problem described here with Thunderbird (latest version) with lightning 2.6.4 (tested on 2.6.5 too). I tested also thundebird 24.1.0 and lightning 2.6.2 but the problem persist. With debugging log I can see that thundebird see that caldav doesn't support caldav scheduling ("CalDAV: Server does not support CalDAV scheduling") but no dialog appear. The backend is and Horde 5.

I can provide to developer user account and caldav access to our systems.

With thundebird 17 and lightning 1.9.1 all work fine.
I can confirm that on Thunderbird 24.2.0 and lightning 2.6.4 on Ubuntu 13.04
