Description Jos Geluk 2011-03-16 12:50:24 UTC
Version:           0.9 (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

As of KDE 4.6.1,I can no longer create a calendar that will sync with Google Calendar. The steps I try are: Add Calendar -> Akonadi (allows access to blabla) -> manage calendar resources -> Add -> Akonadi Google Calendar resource -> I fill in my Google email address and password -> close -> OK.
Then nothing happens for a while. An error message appears "Cannot create calendar". On the console, the following message appears:

Loading items for collection (id= 154 , remoteId= "google-calendar" failed: "Unknown error. (Unable to fetch item from backend)" 

In .local/share/akonadi/akonadiserver.error the corresponding error message appears:
ItemRetrieverException :  Unable to retrieve item from resource: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. 

I have verified all the basics: userid/password are correct, there is a network connection that goes out to a Google server on port 443 (and some traffic coming back), I have the latest version of akonadi-kde-resource-googledata.

The same happens between Google Contacts and KAddressBook. I can create an Akonadi Google Contacts addressbook, but it will not sync.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Try to add a calendar, as described above.

Actual Results:  
error message, no calendar created

Expected Results:  
calendar created, in sync with Google Calendar

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35-27-generic

This happens here too, with the following package versions:
akonadi-backend-mysql   1.5.1-1
akonadi-kde-resource-googledata 1.1.0-1
akonadi-server  1.5.1-1
libgcal0        0.9.6-1

… altough I tested libgcal with the examples from their homepage and it doesn't seem to be the culprit.
