Hi all,
I have a cloud ( nextCloud 14.0.4 on a shared hosting at OVH) that runs well.
On my computer ( on Ubuntu ) Thunderbird & Lightnings are well synked with it (addressbooks, calendars, tasks…)
On my mobile ( a Fairphone on android 7 or 8 ) i have put DAVx5 instaled (the last version at this day DAV x5 2.2.1-ose) to sync tasks, calendars and addressbooks. It is a new phone and the calendars and addressbooks are empty.
Now, the lists of calendars and addressbooks are known by the phone : they appear in DAVx5 and in the apps. Previously, the time to sync was pretty long (some calendars are heavy and there are a numerous addresses in the addressboks). Now nothing seems happening. The synking seems getting no content and the apps are empty. And when creating e.g. a task in OpenTask, the task seems recorded on the mobile but nothing seems sent to the server : I can’t find it neither on the web interface nor in Thunderbird.
Some ideas ? Thanks
@rparkins said in Sync getting done too late:
However if some devices can in fact start the same sync in parallel, the problem is real.
Yes, but I will only make one level of workaround for these broken devices, not workarounds for the workarounds.
If you could provide information about the device and how this could happen, it would be interesting. Maybe it can be avoided by DAVx⁵, or the problem could be reported to the vendor.
@sergio Workaround still works (using DAVx⁵ 2.2.1-ose and OpenTasks 1.1.15), however, once I check a task as done in OpenTasks the issue returns with the next sync.
Now I’m using aCalendar+ as calendar app and OpenTasks to sync tasks. When I get a notification for a due task, I just check it as done in the aCalendar+ notification. Notifications from OpenTasks are deactivated. A sync thereafter does not trigger Vibration.
So the Vibration only happens after checking within the OpenTasks notification.
@rparkins True, this solution adds a lot of complexity (and thus open a Pandora’s box full with new bugs) for a very rare problem. But i will consider it. Thanks for your thoughts.
