Description Vincent Panel 2009-09-08 12:05:26 UTC

Version:           4.3.0 (using 4.3.1 (KDE 4.3.1), Mandriva Linux release 2010.0 (Cooker) for i586)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31-desktop-0.rc8.1mnb

I use both korganizer and ktimetracker to follow up my tasks. These are great tools and they can work together on the same ics (as stated in the documentation). Excellent !

But everytime I start and stop a task session in ktimetracker :

* The good news is an event is created in my calendar, great to follow up at which time I've done what

* The bad news is this event seems to have incorrect times (at least in korganizer)

* The other bad news is this event is created multiple times.

Hence the mess you can see in the attached screenshot. I'll upload the std.ics as well.

Arf, I obfuscated too much the attachment. Some explanations : all the 3 events  on the left side have the same title (created by ktimetracker : you see it as the event _category_ in korganizer). The two tasks on the right hand side have the same title too. The task in the middle have been created manually.

I think you have to reproduce it yourself :
1) launch korganizer and ktimetracker
2) open ~/.kde4/share/apps/korganizer/std.ics in ktimetracker
3) create a dummy task
4) start/stop the task with ktimetracker (double click)
5) and look at the result in korganizer

std.ics shared between korganizer and ktimetracker

In this attachment, I've replaced everything which was not relevant with "[...]". You should see three "task1" objects : one TODO (or tasks : the one which shows up in ktimetracker and the task module of korganizer) and two EVENTS (those showing up in korganizer calendar, but it looks like ktimetracker created those)

Comment 4 Vincent Panel 2009-09-08 12:27:27 UTC

The two EVENTS in std.ics are the one on the right hand side in korganizer calender (in the screenshot).

Comment 5 Thorsten Staerk 2009-09-28 08:49:56 UTC

strange, I do not see the events from ktimetracker in korganizer at all

Comment 6 Thorsten Staerk 2011-09-28 15:18:55 UTC

So this took a bit long, but I am convinced the dtEnd thingy caused these problems for you. Please test, but create a new .ics file, thanks!

Many thanks for this followup 2 years later :) I'm unfortunately not using ktimetracker anymore (used it for professional reasons, but I've been somehow forced to quit linux)... So sorry
