kdepim-sync: Sends calendar into limbo and deletes next time round

Hi all,
After getting my phone to sync over bluetooth, I was trying to synchronise with KDE PIM. The results have been mixed: - Notes: fails entire sync, needs to be disabled - Contacts: works perfectly, but assumes KDE 3.X -- so writes all contacts into .kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf instead of the canonical location for KDE4.X, which is .kde4/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf. This can be fixed by adding the old location as contact database. - Calendar: claims to work, but eats calendar. During the first synchronisation, multisync says all is fine, and is logging messages about writing calendar entries from the phone to KDE PIM. But in Kontact I am unable to find the entries. Searching my home partition with "find . -amin 5" reveals that no file on disk has changed during the calendar synchronisation, so it seems that they are written into limbo. The next time I call synchronisation, the kdepim backend then reports no calendar entries, and consequently the entire calendar on the phone is being deleted. Since there is little documentation and no configuration of the kdepim backend, this is essentially where things stop for me. It would seem very useful if there was a way to configure the kdepim backend, as there are scenarios in which it might be useful to have the contacts and calendar of the phone separate from the rest. Ah, and all of this is on Debian sid/testing with opensync-plugin-kdepim 0.22-3 opensyncutils 0.37-3 multisync-tools 0.92.0~svn355-1 multisync0.90 0.92.0~svn355-1 using KDE4.1, and in particular kontact 4:4.1.3-2 Hope this helps, Best regards, Georg ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Opensync-devel mailing list Opensync-devel@... https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opensync-devel |

Hi Felix,

Yes, although there is a namespace conflict issue with that backend. All the entries of Calendar, Contacts and Notes are given numerical IDs, which on the phone are independent from each other. So a Contact and a Calendar entry can both have the numerical ID 42, for instance. In file-sync this creates a conflict, as it does not differentiate between Calendar, Contacts and Notes -- so it considers the Contact entry #42 to be in conflict with the Calendar entry #42. I was considering to use the file-sync plugin as the central connecting point, but that namespace issue makes it a poor choice for that purpose. fm> Which plugin are you using for your phone? syncml? Yes. It is a Nokia E71, and syncml seems to work just fine (version 1.1). The Contacts are working perfectly between syncml and kdepim (save for the relocation issue) -- including all contact details and even the pictures that I took with the mobile phone and assigned to some contacts. If there is any more information that I can provide to help solve the problems with the kdepim-sync, please let me know.

There is no msynctool package installed, multisync-tools replaces it and the two are mutually exclusive by dependencies. Note now their version would imply that they are newer than msynctool (0.36), but that does not seem to be the case, as these packages depend on the 0.22 libraries, so I assume these are the culprits. I'd love to give the newer package a spin, but unfortunately the msynctool package is not installable due to unsatisfied dependencies, more precisely libopensync1exp4 is unavailable, see http://packages.debian.org/experimental/msynctool So this is where this path breaks, ultimately. mb> The problem with kdepim is that it had not been ported to the 0.37 mb> API, so no 0.37 packages are available.

Besides the it being unfortunate to not support the current version of KDE, I am wondering what causes that incompatibility. KDE3 stores the Contacts in one big vcard file at .kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf whereas KDE4 stores them in one big vcard file in .kde4/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf The Calendar in KDE4 is one big iCalendar file in .kde4/share/apps/korganizer/std.ics If kdepim were trying to write into one large iCalendar file in .kde/share/apps/korganizer/std.ics but failed, because that folder does not exist and it cannot recover From that error, that would explain the observed behaviour. Considering that KDE3 and KDE4 both use the standard vcard & iCal formats, I wonder how kdepim can only work with KDE3. Are you saying that the kdepim plugin does not manipulate the files, but instead reads From and writes to some internal API that has changed between versions?
