I tested on my X10 III on 4.5 with a Nextcloud account and it works as expected. May it be possible that Owncloud is faulty?

#3

I guess you mean CalDAV and not webdav (webdav is read-only, so no way to add invitation I would say).

What is the associated email address to your owncloud instance ? Do you have a configured email account for this address on the phone ? If so, it’s a bug that must be investigated.

I confirm. It doesn’t send the invitation message when I add an event in the calendar (caldav account). However it does send the cancellation message when the event is deleted.

#5

May you run it with debug messages ?

- devel-su -p
- QT_LOGGING_RULES="*.mkcal.debug=true" jolla-calendar

Add a new event with attendees and may you paste the content of the log (if it does not contains any personnal data) ?

Thank you for the log. I’ve no immediate idea what was misbehaving, but I’m investigating… I’ll report here when I find something.

#8

I can confirm this behaviour as well on a cloud hosted nextcloud instance. The invitation is never sent.

#9

This actually raises more questions from my side:

  • @phklrz do you confirm that with the log you sent, a cancel email is sent to the attendees ? As far as I know, there is only one code path to send invitation updates from device, and this code path has a debug message starting with Using plugin:. You can see it just after a new invitation has been added to the calendar inserting incidence "0CE96C81-81D1-4E77-BDD6-0E1E91D3DEFB" notebook "971462d9-597b-4059-9331-9e1c61d31a5e" followed by Using plugin: "caldav". But there is no such debug message after the deletion on line deleting incidence "NBUID:971462d9-597b-4059-9331-9e1c61d31a5e:0CE96C81-81D1-4E77-BDD6-0E1E91D3DEFB" notebook "971462d9-597b-4059-9331-9e1c61d31a5e". So I can’t imagine how the device is sending a cancelled invitation.
  • is this behaviour a regression ?

Because, the CalDAV plugin responsible to do something when the Using plugin: "caldav" is encountered has an empty implementation to send emails. So CalDAV account should not send any invitation or updates from device.

#10

Is it a regression ? As mentioned in the previous answer, the CalDAV implementation for invitations is empty. So it should not do anything “by design” since the start.

#11

I had noticed before that my wife or my son did not receive invitations but I thought it was maybe a problem on their side. So maybe it’s not a regression but I can’t affirm it.
For the log, I’ll try to catch a clean log from a new test because I’ve had some difficulties pasting the log in the text area and maybe some text is missing.
You 've written Using plugin: "caldav" but in the log I see Loading plugin: "caldav" and using service: "caldav"

#12

The Using plugin: "caldav" appears just the after the line starting with inserting incidence "0CE96[...]. And that’s expected. Then, the CalDAV plugin just do nothing for the send invitation action.

This line (Using plugin: "caldav") does not show after the deletion line in the log you provided. The reason for it is that nemo-qml-plugin-calendar (responsible for the call) does not consider that you’re the organiser of the event… That may be another bug by the way. The test is done by comparing the organizer field of the event and the email associated with the CalDAV account on device. If empty or not matching, you’re not the organiser and not cancellation should be sent (so the line Using plugin: "caldav" is not appearing).

What is puzzling me is how you can receive a cancellation notice with a CalDAV account (Nextcloud account is using the CalDAV implementation on device), since the caldav plugin is ignoring invitation send and updates.

#13

Yes you’re right, I didn’t see it.
For the cancellation message, my guess is that it’s the server which sends the message, not the phone.

#14

I think the problem comes from:

[D] unknown:0 - Default plugin: account "4" do not have a valid email address
[W] unknown:0 - Default account was not found!

But I don’t know how to add an email address to the caldav account. When creating it in the “Settings” there is no field for it.

#15

That explains why it works on my side. I have an Nextcloud account by /e/ and they offer an email address (that I never use, until for this case).

#16

The email account for a CalDAV account, as @pherjung mentioned, should be set on the server side. The Sailfish OS plugin will then get it from the server at next sync.

#17

Yes, this in a feature that hasn’t been implemented (yet). I’m going to move this to feature requests category.
