Created attachment 123097 [details] ical file with bad rrule SUMMARY Not sure whether this is the right Product - could have also been "kcalcore". When creating events and todo's in KOrganizer, the ical entry contains a bad RRULE in the VTIMEZONE component (see line 26 in the attached file). When restarting akonadi, it notices itself that something is wrong (log message of akonadictl restart): org.kde.pim.davresource: DavGroupwareResource::onMultigetFinished: Failed to parse item data. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add Calendar - ical Calendar File 2. Add Event and/or Todo item to newly created calendar file 3. open calendar file in text editor (Kate) and look for "RRULE" OBSERVED RESULT RRULE:ERROR: No Value EXPECTED RESULT a valid RRULE entry SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux (Kernel) 5.3.1 KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0 Qt Version: 5.13.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is not doubt a problem in libical. SHould be fixed in libical 3.0.6, however. Make sure you have libical 3.0.6
I have libical 3.0.6.
my bad. I misread the problem. this is about KOrganizer creating a bad RRULE. Can you send me a test .ics file with the bad RRULE?
I already attached one - see attachments above.
Created attachment 123331 [details] file with error string "RRULE:ERROR: No Value"
I've found in my .ics files this "RRULE:ERROR: No Value"string too Kernel: 5.2.17-gentoo x86_64 kde-apps/korganizer-19.08.2 kde-apps/akonadi-calendar-19.08.2 kde-frameworks/kcalendarcore-5.63.0 I added file with error string "RRULE:ERROR: No Value"
I can confirm this error on Gentoo. Synchronization of tasks with DavX/Task on my phone now fail if I specify a due date in my todos. KDE Apps: 19.08.2 KDE Frameworks: 5.63.0 libical: 3.0.6
Hi, same problem here. I noticed that sync of calendar data with my baikal server stopped. Fiddling through the apache logs and with the help of the "akonadiconsole" tool I found "RRULE:ERROR: No Value" entries causing the baikal server scripts to fail. Here, it is enough just to add a new calendar entry in "kontact", giving it just a name and some arbitrary duration, and kaboom. Like Tim Schäfer, I'm also running Gentoo Linux with the same most recent software versions. Interestingly, libical is missing here! No package is pulling it in as a dependency anymore. Regards, Florian
Hi again, please forget that I mentioned that libical is missing... that was on the shell of my server... of course I have version 3.0.6 installed :-) Regards, Florian
Downgrading to libical-3.0.5 provides a hotfix for me. Now I can at least repair what went wrong here in the last days. P.S. And, sorry Till for misspelling your name! ...time for me to go to bed.
I can confirm, that a downgrade to libical 3.0.5 is a working workaround ;-)
I don't know how to reproduce. My events don't contain VTIMEZONE components when I create them. I'm convinced that libical 3.0.6 is printing the "RRULE:ERROR: No Value" but I need to know if the problem is in libical itself, or the way kcalendarcore is using libical. The only way to know I can debug this is knowing how to reproduce. is this somehow specific to caldav? or maybe I need to use a specific timezone?
just a guess: VTIMEZONE is related to daylight saving time. Thus, you may need to select a time zone (maybe also system time zone?) that has a daylight saving time. I have my system configured to the german time zone for example. see also https://stackoverflow.com/a/42941087
I think this one isn't related to caldav. I don't use caldav, but set timezone.
I tried: * setting my system timezone to Europe/Berlin * creating the incidence using Europe/Berlin timezones on the dates neither helped. I still cannot see a calendar with vtimezones and rrules maybe another timezone ? what timezones are you guys using?

This appears to be a regression caused by the commit for bug 405884 (https://github.com/libical/libical/pull/391). With libical 3.0.6 there's an empty RRULE:, while with 3.0.5 there is an invalid one instead.
(In reply to Fabian Vogt from comment #18) > With libical 3.0.6 there's an empty RRULE:, while with 3.0.5 there is an invalid one instead. The other way around. 3.0.5 fine, 3.0.6 invalid.
Looks like Volker was able to reproduce and fix in https://phabricator.kde.org/D25857 we have a possible fix that we'll try to get committed soon.
Should be fixed in commit 595d25ddbc6838eb7ec70a71040246f4c7c5426f of the kcalendarcore repository. Thank you Volker!
