So I've installed Radicale myself and found an issue that'll break SyncEvolution: items reported by the server include double slashes in the path. <multistatus xmlns="DAV:" xmlns:C="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav"> <response> <href>/public_user/calendar/calendar_1//1234567890(a)dummy.ics</href> ^^ SyncEvolution will then use /1234567890(a)dummy.ics as path in future requests, which Radicale rejects with either 404 or 401 errors. I'll work around that in SyncEvolution. I'm not sure whether there is a solution with 1.2.2. Have you considered Calypso (http://keithp.com/blogs/calypso/)? I don't know yet whether it works with SyncEvolution; if there is interest, then I will try it. > I am trying to do the same thing (with one calender to start with) > N900 <-> radicale but it did not work, because it seems the Maemo > calendar is not found: > > http://pastebin.com/huMXDsEx > > What I am doing wrong? You have additional spaces after your \ character. The slash must be at the end of each line. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.

[SyncEvolution] SyncEvolution 1.3 release preparations + ActiveSync

by Patrick Ohly

Hello! I have finished packaging SyncEvolution 1.2.99.3. It is in the "unstable" apt repo and downloads.syncevolution.org. However, I am going to delay sending out the official announcement for a few more days because I want to include some words about the migration of bug tracking and git repo to freedesktop.org, which should happen this weekend. The biggest change is that using ActiveSync is now possible without compiling from source. See the attached release announcement and https://syncevolution.org/wiki/google-contacts-activesync for details. Feedback from early adopters would be very welcome to improve the Wiki page. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.

[SyncEvolution] Nokia N9 sync with task and notes support

by Michael Kummer

I use syncevolution on my N9 and it works perfectly with funambol calendar and contacts. But I found no solution to sync also tasks and notes. What is necessary to make it? Is it a hard show stopper or more a question of time to write the code? I'am not a developer, only an interested user. Is this an issue related to the N9 or related to funambol? Memotoo seems to have a sync with tasks included, but not with notes. I think there are more users of the N9 interested in a full working solution. Thank you very much for your help, Michael

[SyncEvolution] sync-ui: "Sync now" button disabled

by Vladimir Elisseev

Hello, I've noticed that scheduled sync doesn't work anymore even if the "Automatic sync" is checked. As well the "Sync now" button is always grayed out, though if I run syncevolution from command line, everything works as expected. I suppose it's something to do with dbus interaction. I'd appreciate any ideas. I'm using the latest version 1.2.99.2. Regards, Vlad.

[SyncEvolution] Nokia N9 syncevo-to-syncevo weirdness

by Justus-bulk＠Piater.name

Hi - I have the following two symptoms, which may or may not be related: - syncevo-http-server (run on my Debian-wheezy laptop) produces, once for each sync (irrespective of the --sync type, and for all calendars and for the address book): [ERROR] sync: SYSYNC Session aborted because of LOCAL SyncML error code 408 ... [ERROR] sync: SYSYNC Rejected with error: 0 0 syncevolution (on the N9, from http://people.debian.org/~ovek/harmattan/) happily seems to complete the sync nevertheless, with no errors. - Some calendar entries do not show on the N9, even though they are present in evolution. I can create them on the N9, but once I change them on the laptop and sync them back (--sync refresh-from-server or two-way), they no longer show on the N9, even though they are reported as successfully synced. I have not found a sure-fire way to reproduce this. Some new items, created on the laptop and synced, show on the N9; others do not. Sometimes deleting one appointment makes other appointments suddenly show as they should. This renders my N9 calendar utterly useless. I have tried, to no avail: - --sync refresh-from-server - totally wiping the N9 calendar by moving ~/.calendar/db out of the way - hunting for weird or broken calendar entries in evolution ical exports I did not notice the problem before today. Yesterday I upgraded a bunch of things, including libsynthesis0 and libsmltk0 (both to 3.4.0.16.7-1). Are these perhaps broken? Unfortunately there are other recent changes on my system that may be related: - N9 firmware upgrade to PR1.3 last week - evolution, libevolution, libedata-book, libecal and the likes, all upgraded to 3.4.3-1 a week ago Hoping that someone might give me a clue, or point out a strategy that might yield a clue, I posted terminal output and sync logs at https://iis.uibk.ac.at/public/piater/syncevo/. Thanks a bunch, Justus

[SyncEvolution] SyncEvolution git repository and bug tracking

by Patrick Ohly

Hello! Out of convenience I was using the MeeGo Bugzilla for bug tracking and meego.gitorious.org for the code repositories. As I was told after my FOSDEM talk, this apparently caused some people to think of SyncEvolution as "only for MeeGo". That's a bit surprising, given that SyncEvolution always, and primarily, was an independent upstream project. Besides giving that wrong impression, there are also more practical reasons for switching to a different infrastructure. Mixing upstream and distro bug tracking in the same bug tracker instance could have had some positive aspects (cross-referencing), but in practice was just confusing. Upstream bug tracking had to use the data schema from the distro. So where should SyncEvolution go? I'm currently leaning towards a personal github project: https://github.com/pohly/SyncEvolution github has some builtin bug tracking. That may be good enough for SyncEvolution. Or should I try to get it hosted on freedesktop.org? I've always thought of SyncEvolution as something for all Linux desktops, not just for GNOME. Any thoughts? -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.

[SyncEvolution] N9+bluetooth worked

by Diane Trout

Hi, I thought I should mentioned I tried to do a syncevolution bluetooth sync between a Nokia N9 PR 1.2 phone using syncevolution 1.2.2 on ubuntu 12.04 and at least getting data off the phone worked. I did have to use the calendar+todo and made sure the seperate channel versions were unchecked. I tried syncing data back but I ended up with duplicated data. But I think that was more my fault for having synced to text files and had manually editing the files without understanding the vcal format. Diane

[SyncEvolution] memotoo: contacts out of sync after conflict resolution (testMerge)

by Patrick Ohly

Hello Thomas! As part of the SyncEvolution 1.3 release preparations I did another full test run this weekend. The good news first, I did not encounter the "unexpected update" problem ;-) But I noticed a regression in the testMerge test. That test checks how the server behaves when client A and B cause an update conflict on the server (= server has updated item from client A, then client B sends an update in the sync where it is supposed to receive that updated data). That test passed with Memotoo when testing SyncEvolution 1.2.1: http://downloads.syncevolution.org/syncevolution/archive/test-results/syn... Now it failed as follows: Client A sends updated contact with X-AIM added: http://syncev.meego.com/latest/testing-amd64/26-memotoo/Client_Sync_eds_c... In the next session, the conflict occurs because client B sends an update without X-AIM and some other field added: http://syncev.meego.com/latest/testing-amd64/26-memotoo/Client_Sync_eds_c... The server seems to merge or overwrite the data on the server; it does not send any data back to client B (go up one level in the link above to see the full sync log and/or all other messages). In the 1.2.1 time frame, Memotoo did send back an updated contact to client B in this sync. Currently that seems to be broken. What happens now is that in the next sync, when client A checks whether anything has changed on the server, it is sent an updated contact with the X-AIM field: http://syncev.meego.com/latest/testing-amd64/26-memotoo/Client_Sync_eds_c... Now client A and client B are out of sync: client A has the contact with X-AIM, client B doesn't. The test accepts all kinds of conflict resolutions (duplicate items, server wins, client wins), but it does not accept that the clients and server get out of sync. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.

[SyncEvolution] Can syncevolution be used to sync Palm PIlot and Evolution?

by Adam Stein

I thought I had come across something that sounds liked I could use syncevolution to sync up my Palm Pilot with Evolution. Since Evolution no longer supports the Gnome conduits, I am trying to find another way to sync my Palm and Evolution. Searched but couldn't find anything definite. Any information regarding this would be helpful, even if it's just to say it can't be done. I'm running the following: Fedora 17 Evolution v3.4.3 gnome-pilot v2.91.93-5 gnome-pilot-conduits v2.91.93-3 gnome-pilot-eds v2.91.93-5 pilot-link v0.12.5-11 -- Adam (adam(a)csh.rit.edu)
