[CalendarServer-users] XLM directoryservice not being cooperative?

9 Aug 2009

      Hello,

I have recently installed calendarserver 1.2 on Debian lenny, client  
software being ical 3.0.8 running on Leopard.
I have created two users in accounts.xml, as well as a group account  
that includes both of them.
The SSL setup in caldavd.plist was a breeze.
I kept an "empty" sudoers.plist, as I am not sure that I need that  
feature.

Both individual users are happy campers: they can create calendars,  
add events, remove events.
However, none of them seem to be able to interact with the other one.

The kind of interaction I have been trying is delegation: ical  
preferences > accounts > delegation > edit > + > type "user1" > done
leads to "cannot enable access to your account. "user1" was not found"".

Same sort of problem when I create a new event, click on "add  
attendees", type "user1" and end up with an exclamation mark close to  
"user1".
On the server side, the error.log looks like this:
2009-08-09 09:25:24+0200 [-] [caldav-8443]  [-] "No principal for  
calendar user address: 'invalid:nomail'"
2009-08-09 09:25:24+0200 [-] [caldav-8443]  [-] 'No schedulable  
principal for calendar user address: invalid:nomail'
2009-08-09 09:25:24+0200 [-] [caldav-8443]  [-] 'Error during POST for  
invalid:nomail: None'

Any specific place I should be looking at?

Thanks for any comment/suggestion
