Description Wolf Drechsel 2015-05-05 06:38:37 UTC
My version is 4.14.2

My calendar is entirely CalDAV-Based; I dont use local calendars. Frequently, my
calendar "forgets" the calendar colours and all its contents. After a reboot of the
system, it collects the contents from the server, I correct the colours, and things
are nice again.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Maybe it happens when the internet connection drops.

A confirmation is given here:

Happens especially after sleep / re-awakening.
Often, first all calendars are gone. After quitting kontact, restarting akonadi, everything is reconstructed with wrong colours.
Comment 3 Anders Lund 2015-05-07 09:09:12 UTC
Akonadi drops the calendars, and later recreates them, forgetting their colors and weather they were enabled in korganizer (because the akonadi ID changes). I'm pleased to finally see someone else noticing this problem, I have had it for years while using owncloud as the main calendar storage.
Comment 4 Wolf Drechsel 2015-05-07 09:11:40 UTC
Yes, I'm using owncloud as well.
Comment 5 Wolf Drechsel 2015-05-11 19:25:14 UTC
Today twice!

Luckily I found, that 
1. stop akonadi
2. quit kontact
3. relaunch kontact

preserves all the colours.
Comment 6 Wolf Drechsel 2015-05-13 08:47:09 UTC
At kmail, I frequently am loosing the settings, which of the mail folders are open, which are closed, and kontacts and at korganizer I loose the setting which address books/calendars are checked for visibility, and which not.
Comment 7 Wolf Drechsel 2015-05-13 08:50:03 UTC
Is anybody interested in all that stuff out there ?
Comment 8 Sergio Martins 2015-06-09 14:36:42 UTC
Christian, any idea abou this one ? iirc you did some reworking of the color stuff ?
Comment 9 szymon.pysz@gmail.com 2015-10-05 23:04:02 UTC
Hi,

I confirm the problem. I am also using OwnCloud and very often akonadi loses colours of calendar - set some random. :-( KF5 has the same problem. :( [ver. 15.08]

Is there any progress with this (nasty) bug?
Comment 11 Denis Kurz 2017-06-23 21:24:16 UTC
This version was only confirmed for 4.x versions and the Technology Preview version 5.0.x of KDE PIM. Also I seem to remember that at least the "PIM forgets about which calendars to display" part was fixed some time ago. Can't point to a relevant reference right now, sorry.

Can someone confirm the reported behaviour for a version more recent than the Frameworks-based Technology Preview, i.e. 5.1 or later?
Comment 12 Denis Kurz 2018-02-01 09:44:03 UTC
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.1 aka 15.12; preferably much more recent), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
