Setting up a caldav / carddav resource fails due to an error that occurrs when clicking the 'fetch' button Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: The following reproduces the bug. contacts -> 'add addressbook' -> DAV groupware resource -> enter my credentials -> select 'configure the source manually' -> finish -> add -> select carddav -> enter the server - click fetch Actual Results: an error message pops up saying: There was a problem with the request. Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol ''. . (0). Expected Results: I guess it should finally show me a list where I can finally select / confirm the desired carddav resource.
Sorry, it turned out that my URL was wrong. So it is fixed now. Nevertheless, the error message could have been more informative such as 'could not connect to server'
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 kaddressbook (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.
