942896 - Offline mode with CalDav not working (Owncloud)

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

[Jean-Philippe L.]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/7.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E; InfoPath.3; rv:11.0) like Gecko

Steps to reproduce:

For this scenario, I used :
- Thunderbird 24.1.1 (Windows)
- Lightning 2.6.3
- OwnCloud 5.0.13 (on Windows, IIS 7.0 , Windows Server 2008 32bits)

1) Install Thunderbird + LightNing 2.6.3
3) Add a new CalDav (OwnCloud) calendar and enable "Offline support"
3) Complete configuration


Actual results:

Although I had to type my username and password for OwnCloud, the content of the calendar do not show up.

If I disable the "Offline support", everything works.

Rolling back to 2.6.2 works with OffLine mode.


Expected results:

The calendar should show it's content.

If I enable the "Offline support" I got 356x 
[JavaScript Error: "TypeError: aListener.onOperationComplete is not a function"]

If I disable the "Offline support", I got the warning

I also have the latest error in 2.6.2 by the way.

Thanks in advance!

exactly same here:
SERVER:
Debian 7;
Owncloud 5.0.13

CLIENT:
Ubuntu 12.04 64
Thunderbird 24.1.1
Lightning 2.6.3 via CalDAV

creation of appoiontments online and locally possible, upsyncing working but downsyncing fails as long as "Offline Support" ist enabled for the CalDAV-Calendar

Disabling "Offline Support" is a good workaround

Same problem but using CalDAV 

CLIENT: 
- Thunderbird 24.1.1 (Ubuntu)
- Lightning 2.6.3 via CalDAV via Davmail 4.3.4-2174

Calendar display only if offline mode is disabled.

Same problem but using Davmail's CalDAV emulation for Exchange. 

CLIENT: 
- Thunderbird 24.1.1 (Ubuntu)
- Lightning 2.6.3 via CalDAV via Davmail 4.3.4-2174

Calendar display only if offline mode is disabled.Was working well in the past.

In error console :
[JavaScript Error: "TypeError: aListener.onOperationComplete is not a function"] (many times)

The error "aListener.onOperationComplete is not a function" is most probably caused by the incomplete patch in Bug 930132, see Bug 930132 Comment 54 and following. A new patch was added, maybe you can try to locally patch your Lightning installation.

How do I apply this kind of patch under Windows? 

Thanks btw!

[Cliff Mitchell]

I can confirm that enabling Offline Support causes the error: 

[JavaScript Error: "TypeError: aListener.onOperationComplete is not a function"].

Disabling Offline Support gives the warning: 

Warning: Use of getAttributeNodeNS() is deprecated. Use getAttributeNS() instead.

Thanks.

I confirm Bug 930132 Comment 56 patch (Attachment #8339151 [details] [diff]) fix the problem and make offline mode work again. Thanks!

[Sven Giermann]

Thank for testing.
Jean-Philippe reported the same, so I'm setting dependency to bug 930132.

Comment 12

[Sven Giermann]

This issue is fixed by latest patch of bug 930132.

This issue is not fixed!
When an Calendar is in offline mode:
..... if you make a new calendar entry you get an error-message (MODIFICATION Failed)
When you disconnect the storage, where the .ics-files are stored, and you synchronise, all entries of the calendars are deleted. -->The Thunderbird Calendar does not recognise, that the storage ist disconnected. The Thunderbird Calendar should recognise the disconnection and keep all entries in its cach and save new entries also in its cach.
Same happens when you shut down Thunderbird and restart.
It's all the same which OS you use. I watched this with Win10 and Ubuntu 20.04.

Ernst, please open a new bug report for your issue. This bug report has been closed over 8 years ago, and your description does not seem to involve CalDAV as mentioned in the title of this bug report.
