Version: 4.6.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) OS: Linux When I add a remote calendar (over https), Akonadi reloads the file every second. The corresponding item in KOrganizer's calendar list is flashing because of this, so as a side-effect, I cannot even select it. The calendar file is okay, though, as it works when I download it first. Maybe it's important that the ical file has 'xhtml' as extension on the server. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Add a calendar, select "from ical file", enter a URL to a remote ical file. Actual Results: it reloads every second, making it impossible to select and use. Expected Results: Downloading it and doing a reload every few minutes (would be great if this inverval would be configurable, but I will open another ticket for this). I'm afraid I cannot supply the URL, since it is my private calendar of my university. The software doesn't crash, so I set severity to normal. But since I cannot use my remote calendar right now (it's updated server-side frequently), I would be glad if this could be fixed soon :] Thanks.
Can you try: http://www.kde.org/releaseschedule.ics
(In reply to comment #1) > Can you try: http://www.kde.org/releaseschedule.ics It works with this URL. The URL I use looks like this: https://tiss.tuwien.ac.at/events/ical.xhtml?locale=de&token=d880fcb8-2707-4a0d-bce7-3b22541b23de Hope this helps..
I just want to add that adding this calendar (using a similar URL) worked using the previous version of KOrganizer (using ArchLinux packages and Gentoo sources).
I could reproduce by loading this URL as an Akonadi iCal file in KOrganizer: http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/gsummerofcode@gmail.com/public/basic.ics I had akonadi_nepomuk taking all my CPU and leaking memory. Since it persists even after quitting KOrganizer (and even reboot), I think it is triggered by Plasma Calendar. Removing the resource resolve the symptoms and only left an akonadi_nepomuk_calendar_feeder process taking much memory. This bug might be a result of a bad fix for the crashes described in: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=273676 -- Gentoo -- Akonadi: 1.5.3 KDE: 4.6.5 Qt: 4.7.3
This is still happening for me on kdepim 4.7.0 for multiple iCal files, one from Google Calendar, and another from Toodledo.
Fixed in master, and can't be backported due to ABI issues.
is there any sort of workaround that will let users have calendars within the next six months, then?
What commits is this fixed in? I'd like to backport them in a personal build at least, since remote calendars are pretty important to my workflow.
This bug seems to be related to Bug 287871 .
I am still getting this error in KOrganizer 4.10rc1, my url is like this: http://xxx.yyy.com/zzz.ics?key=kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk I've tried to write a wrapper(using WSGI) to proxy above url: http://xxx.yyy.com/zzz/kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.ics And this will fix the strange behavior. Hope this helps.
I still have this problem. Any news on this bug?
I also see a remote calendar loading every second. In Akonadi Console, i see an ICal Calendar File whose filename is http://calendar.openstreetmap.org.uk/events.ics. In the console i see it toggle from Ready to Downloading remote file (100%) every second. It spikes my CPU. I have to Abort Activity on the agenty to stop this. For a while i suspected the IMAP agent was spiking my CPU, but i'm amazed to see it's just this simple calendar. I'm using libakonadi-* 4:4.11.5-1 (Debian sid).
One possible explanation is the CNAME. root@three:~# dig calendar.openstreetmap.org.uk ; <<>> DiG 9.9.3-rpz2+rl.13214.22-P2-Debian-1:9.9.3.dfsg.P2-4 <<>> calendar.openstreetmap.org.uk ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 46339 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 3, AUTHORITY: 3, ADDITIONAL: 5 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;calendar.openstreetmap.org.uk.

Should this bug be set to Product: Akonadi and Component: ICal file resource?
It is happening to me too. Kubuntu 14.04.2, KDE 4.13.3. I have added two different calendars from Google iCal links, but only one keeps reloading. If I remove it, everything is back to normal.
For remote ical files from Google, this is probably the culprit: http://www.enricozini.org/2015/debian/google-ics-evil/
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.
