Yes, that's certainly a good option. However, I thought, since I do not need any other parts of the server right now and the CalDAV/CardDAC server is probably similar or even identical, I try the open source solution. Thanks for the suggestion. Cheers, Bernhard

Hi, is it correct that someone is currently implementing shared address books for calendarserver (https://trac.calendarserver.org/changeset/11493)? If yes, what is the current state? Is this feature already available in a release? How can/will users configure sharing? Thanks in advance Carsten

Running CalendarServer on Mac OS X 10.8.5
by Bernhard Spinnler 11 Nov '13

All, I am trying to run CalendarServer on a MBP running OS X 10.8.5. I am using release CalendarServer 5.0. Setting up the server with the command './run -s' seems to work mostly well. Only one question here: During compilation of Twisted I get a compiler error: clang -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -dynamic -g -Os -pipe -fno-common -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -mno-fused-madd -DENABLE_DTRACE -DMACOSX -DNDEBUG -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wshorten-64-to-32 -DNDEBUG -g -Os -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -DENABLE_DTRACE -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -I/Users/Admin/Tmp/calendar/postgresql-9.1.2/_root/include -pipe -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/include/python2.7 -c conftest.c -o conftest.o clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-mno-fused-madd' conftest.c:1:10: fatal error: 'sys/epoll.h' file not found #include <sys/epoll.h> ^ 1 error generated. However, the setup process seems to proceed normally and I can run the server using './run'. I can add the server in AddressBook and Calendar, add contacts and so on. Everything seems to work. Any ideas what the error is about? Is it serious? Then I tried to install the server properly with './run -i /Users/username/Tmp' as it is suggested in 'run'. I get the same error during Twisted compile (which I ignore). However, installing CalDAVClientLibrary fails after lots of copying and byte-compiling with error running install_data creating /Users/Admin/Tmp/cs/System creating /Users/Admin/Tmp/cs/System/Library creating /Users/Admin/Tmp/cs/System/Library/Frameworks creating /Users/Admin/Tmp/cs/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework creating /Users/Admin/Tmp/cs/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions creating /Users/username/Tmp/cs/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7 warning: install_data: setup script did not provide a directory for 'caldavclientlibrary/ui/WebDAVBrowser.nib' -- installing right in '/Users/username/Tmp/cs/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7' error: can't copy 'caldavclientlibrary/ui/WebDAVBrowser.nib': doesn't exist or not a regular file I checked the file 'caldavclientlibrary/ui/WebDAVBrowser.nib' and sure enough it's a bundle, i.e. in Unix terms a directory, not a regular file. Any ideas why I get this error? Could I have wrong tools installed? I have XCode 5.0.1. TIA, Bernhard

Config questions

I'm trying to set up rel. 4.2 of Calendar and Contacts Server on a Mac Book Pro running Lion (latest OS the MBP can run), and I keep getting this error when I try to add a Server Calendar to the Calendar client: "iCal encountered a critical error while saving to the database, and recent changes may be lost. More information may be available in the console." I get this same error with rel 5.0 also. Any idea what the problem is? Also, the list of "release branches" doesn't to have any notes related to required OS versions, etc. Folks on the list seem to be favoring 4.2? Is that the recommended stable release (particularly for Lion) or another? I'm just looking to sync my Calendar/Contacts with my iOS devices. This is in preparation for migrating to Mavericks and a new Mac Pro. There won't be any other users (at least initially). Should the user entry in "accounts-test.xml" be my account on my MBP or a different one? "accounts-test.xml" stores readable passwords? Sorry, if these seem obvious. I feel like I may be missing some basic concept(s). Thanks, Jeff
