iCal sync failing with shared calendars

[travisbell]

Hey guys, I am getting the following error in my sync.log file...

[ZimbraHelper] Caught exception while trying to sync calendars: name = NSInvalidArgumentException, reason = *** -[ZimbraClient UTF8String]: selector not recognized [self = 0x489f50] (8285)
[ZimbraHelper] cancelling sync (8285)
[assert] error: !err
[assert] where: "ZimbraHelper_main.mm", "Sync", line: 2168

And upon trying to sync a shared calendar the iSync connector reports and error saying it encountered an error and is reverting back to the last saved version.

I am using 0.9.14 with Zimbra 4.0.2 on OS X Server. Any idea how I can make this work?

Thanks!

You should get the latest version from the support portal. 4.1.0_330 It has lots of fixes and will be much easier to debug. In particular many fixes with iCal and calendar entires.

Do not use 4.1.0_330 for shared calendar support! It has a destructive bug in it that can lead to the original owners calendar being deleted (Bug 11241) . This has just been fixed so wait for the next beta release for shared calendar support.

So pleased I had backups when I found that one!

Next beta of Zimbra, or the iCal connector?

[jstrat]

Next beta of iCal Connector - no idea when that is due though

*sigh*

It seems I may never get company wide shared calendar support.

we're looking at refreshing the beta version very soon.

Just don't delete shared calendars

Seriously though we are testing a new version internally which has this fix and many more performance fixes. So far so good. We hope to have this out very soon.

Thanks Kevin thats good news, sync of shared calendars is really important for us. Now if we only had Tasks as well...... roll on Franklin.
