strange iCal requirement
by Alan Levin 21 Mar '07

21 Mar '07

Hi, We finally managed to get this running and I see: "Using iCal with the Calendar Server 1. You need to be running the latest Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard release for a version of iCal supporting CalDAV. " Seems strange..... I do use a MacBook Pro, without downloading another (one of these # Chandler # Mozilla Lightning # Mozilla Sunbird # Mulberry ) is there any way I can try it out now? If not, can someone recommend one of the other clients (I got some poor feedback about Sunbird). kind regards, Alan --------------------------------------------- Alan Levin Tel: +27 21 409-7997

Help, I broke my Calendar server and now I can't subscribe
by Gary King 07 Mar '07

I briefly had the CalendarServer up and running on my OS X box (10.4.x). Then I tried to get it running as a daemon with launchd and now all is awry. Here is what happens: * When I execute "run", the server starts up and seems OK. * I can go to http://localhost:8008/ in a web browser and see a listing of resources.

Working with Group Calendars across Clients
by Tyler Keating 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

Hi, A question: How do you share a group calendar properly using multiple calendar clients? For example, I have two user's A and B in the same large group. A uses my web application to add an entry into the group calendar and appears as the Organizer. B uses some other client to access the group calendar and simply modifies that same entry without restraint. A is unaware that B may have maliciously changed the entry and other group members believe the modified entry belongs to A. I've thought of making the group calendar readonly for group members and using the admin user to create/update/destroy entries through my web application on the user's behalf, but there must be a better way. Plus I don't know how to modify the group ACL yet either. So that question again: How should I enforce ownership of group entries across multiple clients? - Tyler Keating

Working with Group Calendars
by Tyler Keating 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hi, I'm having trouble accessing group calendars. So far I've implemented a custom directory service tied to my application, but when a member tries to access their group's calendar, I get a "403 Forbidden" response. The custom directory service is properly returning the set of members for the group and then the DirectoryRecords for each member in the group. I've verified that the groupMembers() method in principal.py returns the proper DirectoryPrincipalResources of the members as well. I don't know if it's an issue with the directory service, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. Can someone please explain what I'm missing? - Tyler Keating
