@hobbes said in caldav sync with google doesnt work anymore:

Looks like the server is sending invalid responses…

[hobbes]

but except for the periodic notification, everything seems to work fine… what can I do to help diagnose this ?

[rfc2822]

@hobbes Can you post the HTTP request before the exception? There should be a multistatus response without an ETag response, which would be a server problem.

[hobbes]

Hi, where do I get those requests ? I don’t see any detail in the logat, so I’m not sure what you’re asking for… The only thing that seems weird is this line:

11-07 20:30:15.637  6555  5080 I davdroid: [syncadapter.SyncManager] 1pt1mrnrhtn5o5ai8g832eh323@google.com.ics has been added remotely

It comes back every single time that I sync the calendar.

Other than that, I have a bunch of those:

11-07 20:25:19.596  6476  3803 W ContentResolver: Failed to get type for: content://com.android.calendar (Unknown URL content://com.android.calendar)

But I don’t think that they are related to my notification…

[rfc2822]

@hobbes How did you get the logs? Did you enable external logging in DAVdroid and then transfer the files to your PC?

[hobbes]

I previously used a logcat, but now I found the option to get the comple1pt1mrnrhtn5o5ai8g832eh323te logs from davdroid, with far more information
Apparently there is one event which was added remotely, but when davdroid tries to download it, it gets a 404 error.
It would probably help if I transmited the complete log, but before I do so, does it contain any sensitive information ?

I don’t know. If you want, you can send it to play@bitfire.at (PGP key) and it will of course be treated as confidential.

[hobbes]

ok log sent.
Thanks

[rfc2822]

Thanks for the logs. I was finally able to reproduce a similar situation:

1. Upload an event with UID:a%40b (note the %, for instance coming from some erroneously double-encoded old UID; nevertheless valid) to Google /events/a%40b.ics (or anything else)
2. Google usually rewrites the path (= moves the event) to <UID>.ics, which would be a%40b.ics.
3. However, Google CalDAV REPORT calendar-query reports /events/a%2540b.ics as the URL of the resource.
4. If you want to download /events/a%2540b.ics from Google, it returns 404, although it had just listed this path.

So, in my opinion and what I currently know about it, this seems to be a server problem. It should go away if you delete all events on the server and then only create/sync “clean” events with “good UIDs”. Maybe you can also create a new calendar for testing and see whether this one works?
