Sync fails with KotlinNullPointerException if a particular event is present
-
For the past few days, whenever DAVx⁵ syncs, the sync fails with KotlinNullPointerException, which is displayed in a notification banner. Looking at the debug log and removing the offending event from my Fastmail calendar allows sync to succeed again. Re-adding the offending event causes it to fail.
The event is one my partner invited me to. It is rather personal so I have redacted my partner’s email address, the event title, the Google Meet URL, and all UUIDs in the debug info, replacing them with
xorXto the appropriate length. Everything else in this debug log is left alone:https://willthompson.co.uk/misc/davx5-info.txt
With this event removed, sync succeeds, including new events I create or delete on my phone or on the server.

Some further research:
- I edited the
.icsfrom the invitation to remove theATTENDEEandORGANIZERfields and imported it back into my Fastmail calendar; sync succeeded. - I imported the unedited file, without accepting, maybe-ing or declining the event; sync succeeded.
- I accepted the event; now DAVx⁵ crashes again in the same way.
I don’t speak Kotlin, but I would guess it’s the
!!operator here:date.timeZone = DateUtils.ical4jTimeZone(zone.id)!!

Guess so too. Ill try to fix it and release the next hotfix if I can.

Will do!

Should be fixed with 3.2.1.1, which will be released now

I have sent an email with the APK. Can you please check whether it now works for you?

It works. Thanks for such a quick fix!

Will 3.2.1.1 be released on F-Droid? I’ve started experiencing this same exception yesterday with a FastMail calendar on 3.2.1. (Wouldn’t surprise me if it also had to do with a Google Meet event, since I have a couple of those.)

Seems like they have published it 53 minutes ago.
