GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 322982
Does not display free/busy information during event scheduling
Last modified: 2006-08-08 03:55:56 UTC
Distribution: Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg) Package: Evolution Severity: normal Version: GNOME2.8.0 unspecified Gnome-Distributor: Red Hat, Inc Synopsis: Does not display free/busy information during event scheduling Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: libical Bugzilla-Version: unspecified Description: Description of Problem: Evolution will not display user or URL listed ical "free/busy" schedules, even though the files exist (you can click on the URL and see the ical free/busy file". Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Add a "free/busy" URL to a contact. 2. Click file/new/meeting 3. Add contact from 1. to the attendee list 4. Click scheduling tab: Actual Results: Note that contact shows "no information". Note also that your own information is either missing or incorrectly listed. (i.e., listed on wrong time/date or both)(Note that for the purposes of testing this bug, the URL was displayed by clicking the icon to the right of the attendee's "free/busy" URL on the contact's personal information card. Expected Results: Free/busy information for the meeting scheduler should be displayed as appropriate. Attendees with valid Ical ICS files at valid URLs should also be appropriately displayed. How often does this happen? Consistently. I have not been able to get the free/busy information to display at all! Additional Information: Note that for the purposes of testing this bug, the validity of the test attendee's free/busy URL was tested by clicking on the display icon to the right of the contact's "free/busy" URL on their "Personal Information" card. Also, the Ical free/busy server used is Ical's own at http://icalx.com ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@gnome.bugs 2005-12-02 01:03 UTC ------- The original reporter of this bug does not have an account here.

michael, which evolution version is this? 2.0.x is not maintained anymore and i would recommend to update to a current version like 2.4.x where lots of these issues have been fixed. setting to NEEDINFO, please REOPEN when answering.
Andre, I'm running the latest version available on the mirror: v2.09.4. In fact, I upgraded because of this bug. If there's a v2.4.x available, it's not available on the Fedora Core mirror for some reason.
There was a typo in my last comment. Unfortunately, Bugzilla won't let me reopen as you requested, even though I'm the reportee. <shrug> Anyway, the version is 2.0.4, *NOT* 2.09.4. Sorry. Anyway, I will attempt to find v2.4xx or v2.5.x
Note: There IS no build of evolution v2.4x for FC3. Is this an oversite?
ok, adding version info, thanks for answering (and sorry that it took me a week). errmm... FedoraCore builds are NOT done by the evolution community, so this is not an oversite of us. :-)
Display the information in the wrong timezone (a sidenote in the original comment) is filed as bug 342838; not displaying the information is filed as bug 269155 (and maybe bug 273560 too?). I'll mark as a dupe of the latter. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 269155 ***
Set component to libical under Evolution Data Server where they should belong to.
