CalDAV <-> owncloud [answered]

Hey,

after the software update to version 1.0.7.16, Saapunki, it is now possible to generate a CalDAV calendar with owncloud support. Are there any hint how to realize this? What is the correct input for the field "serveradress" and "serverpath"?

My input does not work: Serveradress: https://tld.de
Serverpath: https://tld.de/remote.php/caldav/calendars/username/defaultcalendar

regards matl

Regarding to my question, is it possible that my self-signed certificate is the problem?

For some reason I am only getting one-way syncing, from server to device.. no changes made on the device-side seem to have any effect..

I have tried manual syncing, but for some reason it doesn't really update. I also removed the "Contact birthdays" calendar, but that's still visible in the contact app..

Anyone got any theories?

Are you using the the correct owncloud adress "https://domain.tld/remote.php/caldav/ ?
Think there is also a adress for syncing one way (read) for the owncloud which looks like "https://domain.tld/remote.php/caldav/principals/yourUsername/"

Yeah, double and tripple checked, won't accept syncing from the phone.. :)

Also make sure you check your owncloud.log. I needed to work-around https://github.com/owncloud/calendar/issues/388 before getting this to work.

Adress: https://tld.de/remote.php/caldav/ and serverpath empty tells me, that it is loading the calendar details, but finally there is a problem and it falis.

or: https://bla.dyndns.org:PORT and path: /owncloud/remote.php/caldav/calendars/admin/ ... if you have a other username than change admin with your username

still have no success, my ownlcoud tells me the following link: https://owncloud.mydomain.de/remote.php/caldav/calendars/myusername/defaultcalendar. If I split the link up into serveradress=https://owncloud.mydomain.de and serverpath=/remote.php/caldav/calendars/myusername/defaultcalendar or serverpath=/remote.php/caldav/calendars/myusername/ it fails. It will also fail if I enter the complete link into the serveradress and leave the second field blank.

I get to configure calendar account but don't see any owncloud calendars under calendar app either. Update: eventually the calendars synced to the app.

I used server field only (note my setup root is already owncloud, so that was not needed in the string): https://my.example.com/remote.php/caldav

During the configuration, if you don't see calendars listed on the last page, it is not going to work in calendar app either.

How does it fail? What's the error message?

"Ups! Es gibt ein Problem bei der Kontoerstellung. Der Benutzername oder das Passwort ist falsch"
in Englisch: Damn, your password is wrong.
But: It is definitly the correct password. I enterd it 100 times, on my pc and on the phone.

Try this as link: https://owncloud.mydomain.de/remote.php/caldav/ Just cut off all the rest. That works for me. As long as there is one calendar only in that account, it should work fine.

After going through many many tries,.. and getting no where I finally discovered that the CalDAV password cannot contain a % symbol!

Save yourself some time and grief by choosing one without a % sign :)

PS: other CalDAV application don't seem to mind passwords with % symbols
