I'll follow up my own email with the solution. :) "server path" should be "/principals/users/raj/" Basically, if you can go to that URL and see all of the calendar information, Collection Listing, Properties, then that's the exact URL to use when setting up. I thought the system would append the username to the URL, but it doesn't.

...

I still wonder where's the best place for contacting developers on this. I can see, in the archives, that this mailing list is practically dead.

Hi all!

I just setup "calendarserver" on a ubuntu system. There were lots of small issues involved in getting it to work, most of which seem undocumented, which surprised me. I finally have it up and running and I can connect to, e.g.:

http://192.168.0.36:8008/principals/users/raj/

and after giving my username and password, I see all of the "Principal Details" information just fine.

I can configure the ical account on my Mac using the "advanced" account type, and specifying:

username: raj password: <my password> server address: 192.168.0.36 server path: /calendars/user/ port: 8008 use ssl: no

and it creates the calendar account for the Calendar app just fine. (I have ssl turned off currently, but plan to turn it on later.)

My problem is that the account on Calendar shows the error "The server specified an invalid calendar home." and "No calendar home was specified for the account "192.168.0.36".

My guess is that maybe this has something to do with caldavd not creating the correct entries in the postgres database(?), but I can't seem to find any information about this on the net.

Any help or pointers to help would be greatly appreciated!
