Description George Avrunin 2011-02-24 02:12:21 UTC
Version:           4.4.10 (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

I use kontact/korganizer with an egroupware calendar maintained by my department through the groupdav connection.  If I enter events in egroupware, they show up correctly in kontact.  If I enter an event in kontact, it initially shows at the correct time, but as soon as the calendar is reloaded, the event moves to a time one hour earlier.  Both machines are in the North America/New York time zone and have the system clock on UTC.  This occurs with both egroupware 1.6 and 1.8 (both community edition).  If I access the egroupware calendar with sunbird through groupdav, this problem does not arise.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. egroupware calendar on server
2. Add calendar in kontact with groupdav (http://example.com/egroupware/groupdav.php)
3. enter an event at some time, say 2:00 pm in kontact for the egroupware calendar


Actual Results:  
After calendar reloads, event moves to 1 hour earlier (1:00 pm if entered for 2:00 pm)  When the calendar is viewed in egroupware, event is at 1:00 pm.

Expected Results:  
Event should show at 2:00 pm in kontact and egroupware

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of korganizer (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
