Description Sabine Faure 2010-03-12 18:10:31 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

- Launch KOrg
- Click on 'New To-do'
- Enter a title, location, due date and time for the to do
- Check the time associated check box to be able to enter a due time (five minute from now) for the to-do
- Check the reminder check box and click on the 'Advanced...' button
- Enter '2' 'minutes' 'before the to-do is due'
- Click on 'Ok' twice
- The to do is displayed in the agenda view at the correct hour.
- Wait for about 3 minutes

Nothing happens so I am guessing that the reminder functionality does not work atm.

Comment 6 Sergio Martins 2010-06-01 12:27:35 UTC 
Tested it right now and the above commit fixed it, i got the reminder.

Akonadi::Calendar was ignoring to-dos.
Comment 7 Sabine Faure 2010-07-04 21:48:57 UTC 
I retested this today and it does not work properly.

Most of the time there is no reminder window displayed whereas there should be one.

I can see the reminder deamon icon at the bottom right hand side of the screen (near the clock) but when I open the system activity dialogue the reminder is not in the list of processes. Could that be the pb?

I got it to work for a while after sending an email as a reminder then all the reminder options worked fine (email, sound, display). I rebooted my computer and then impossible to make the reminder work again.
How is it possible that sometimes this works and sometimes it does not?

I am reopening this bug since I cannot make it work all the time.

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 korgac (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Comment 9 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 21:25:03 UTC 
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.
