Zimbra Desktop Calendar Not Working

[jojo17]

Thank you, WGSJR1942,

Your response was constructive and helpful. I can see you have put some time into this.

I need to know where I can download the prior V 7.1.1. I can only find V 7.1.2.

Thank you.

Thank you. I uninstalled V 7.1.3 and installed V 7.1.1. The calendar appears to be working fine. Even with the uninstall, all my settings were maintained and it pulled in all my emails and calendars without further input from me --which might not be a good thing for a new (different) user, but worked for me. I periodically get notices that an update is available -- which, of course, I resist.

Releasing a new version with a major part like the calendar not working, however, is more than a "bug." That said -- I am sure that the newer version improves many other issues that I have yet to appreciate. Please know I have great respect for open source projects and I appreciate all the very fine and detailed work that has been done, and the commitment of those who do it. I consider myself very much the beneficiary.

I hope someone will update the post when V 7.1.3 is ready for prime (calendar) time. Thank you all.

From that comment it sounds like you think it was released with a bug deliberately or am I misunderstanding what you've said? Apart from the issue in this thread, albeit inconvenient for some users, the Calendar does work and your implication in that comment is that is doesn't work at all, perhaps I'm misunderstanding that comment as well?

Glad to hear Going back to V7.1.1 worked for you. I also keep getting the update alerts to upgrade to V7.1.2 which I ignore.

Some time ago I reported this as bugzilla bug #69170 (which is a duplicate of bug #65069.) If you have time to kill, other users offer helpful info on this problem.
I have gotten feedback that the Development team for Zimbra is now aware of this problem for what its worth.
Regards

WGS
