GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 314166
Evolution does not propagate recurring events to Outlook Web Access properly.
Last modified: 2006-06-15 10:58:33 UTC
Please describe the problem: Recurring events are not correctly propagated from Evolution to an Exchange Server (as viewed by Outlook Web Access). Deleting a single occurance of a repeating event in Evolution does not delete the occurance as seen in OWA. Entering a repeating event in Evolution does not enter the same range of dates as viewed via OWA. Changing a repeating event in Evolution changes from "including the last day of the date range" to "excluding the last day of the date range." This, however, is consistently reflected in OWA. Steps to reproduce: 1. Enter a recurring event in Evolution on an Exchange-server calendar, repeating every one day until a given date (Say, September 5-9). 2. Delete the occurence (in Evolution) on September 6 and resave. Actual results: 1. Event shows up as repeating every one day forever when viewed in OWA. 2. Event is still there when viewed in OWA. Event now shows in both Evolution and OWA has going through Sept 8, not 9. Expected results: I would expect the events to match exactly. Furthermore, I would expect the end-date of a recurring event to be consistently included in the range. Does this happen every time? Every time I've tried it. Other information: I'm running Fedora core 2 with the following, compiled from source. evolution-2.0.2/ evolution-data-server-1.0.2/ gal-2.2.3/ gtkhtml-3.2.3/ libsoup-2.2.1/ ximian-connector-2.0.4/
Moving it to connector.
this bug is not reproducible in evolution 2.6.2. Erik: Reopen this bug if its reproducible in evolution 2.6.2. There were issues w.r.t recurring events in 2.0.x but its fixed now.
