@sfroemer Thanks for the update, so I don’t have to answer via email 😉

@rfc2822
Thanks, that fixed it.

I found this issue in etar from July 2019: Reminders in read-only calendars #523
unfortunately no response so far…

Ah! I came here to ask exactly the same question. For some time I have seen these two accounts from my DAVx5: me@place.com and me@place.com ug and I wondered which was the correct place to store my contacts. So I need to use the “ug” one…

@rfc2822 said in Null Pointer Exception Error:

@phyto70 Hi,

Does this help?
https://www.davx5.com/faq/java-lang-nullpointerexception-java-util-gettimezone

Oh, sorry, yes, it helped and it is fixed.
I did not look much in the FAQ for this since the error clearly pointed to the app source code and an NPE

Thank you

@rzitka Happy that it now works for you. There are calendar apps which can import/export, too (the more advanced calendar apps from the stores).

Maybe we should create a more generic FAQ entry, which includes contacts and events.

@devvv4ever AOISP 10 on Pixel 2 XL with Nextcloud 20.* not working for me with all apps i have tried so far! I have a Nexus 9 Tablet parallel. What infos can i provide?

@colona Ah I see. Yes as usual I forgot to push the tag.

@ghisbar said in Not possible to read the manual:

@devvv4ever , Sorry

I would like to tag my question solved" but I can’t find how.

I don’t know if users can do this, but I did it for you now 🙂

@j-ed - YES, you are correct. My phone was on my public (no password) wifi that has no access to the LAN that is password protected. It was designed to keep visitors out of my stuff.
And it worked - it kept me out of my stuff.
Thanks for seeing what should have been obvious to me!

OK, the problem is solved.
If I set the proxy in the Wifi connection, Android says that the connection is limited. As soon as you put the same proxy but in transparent mode (not set in Android, but filter correctely by the router when Android try to connect to outside), the connection is fully established and the synchronization is immediately done.
Sorry for the noise.
I would appreciate if one day, you may remove the needed support to Android sync…
Thanks a lot

@dafelix Thanks for the feedback.

@jimmy Thanks for the update and good to hear that it now works for you! Maybe the thread can help others with the same problem.

@j-ed You were right! The issue was on the Nextcloud side - apparently some of the metadata of my contacts had been switched around. I fixed that and now my problem is solved. Thanks for the quick help.

@rfc2822
Thanks 🙄 - I changed that setting and it is now working 👍

@devvv4ever Wow thanks so much. I´ve never seen an change taken place this fast 😊

@devvv4ever Thanks for your follow up. I was syncing to the Synology Calendar “My Calendar”. To be sure I changed the name to something very distinctive and posted on my phone making sure I was posting to that calendar. And it worked! So guess it was user error on my part. Thanks again for your help.

@rfc2822 I think I’ve figured out the reason for the error message.
When I previously tried to enter the ip-adress, I asked the app to prepend https://, which is probably the reason why it didn’t allow for “:5001” to work. My best guess is that the app does the error check without virtually prepending https.
Tested it while manually adding https and port, and now it is working flawlessly.

Thank you very much.

@devvv4ever

Your support is as excellent as Your app - thank You so much…
Best, Steffen

@rfc2822 said in [Solved] Nextcloud Contacts Birthdays calendar : http 404 error:

But then how to distinguish the errors? Every notification should provide verbose information, including debug info, about the problem so that it can be traced.

That’s why there is an app’s status function, all this sent multiple times (esp in the case for different feeds to the SAME server) to a mobile phone’s notifications is over the top.

Yea but every time I click on a single notification and reload the fetch and it always works, it is too much to have multiple notifications, one will suffice in any case

Perfect, thank you! This clears everything up. (Sorry I missed that FAQ page – I looked through the titles but that one hadn’t jumped out at me at the time.)
