[Owncloud] CalDAV interoperability

[Laurent Duchesne]

Hi,

Thanks for posting this information. As you mentioned, the Playbook cannot find the calendar by itself. I succeeded by patching the code like this:

/3rdparty/Sabre/CalDAV/XMLUtil.php line 77
Change: 
if (!is_null($start) && !is_null($end) && $end <= $start) {
to:
if (!is_null($start) && !is_null($end) && $end < $start) {

Reference:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/OwnCloud-Carddav-amp-Caldav/m-p/1590131#M28070

That post hints that this may only be necessary at validation time, when you create the account on the Playbook, but I have not tried reverting the code yet after setting up the account.

The Playbook then needs the entire URL to the calendar (including it's name). In my case:

cloud.domain.tld/apps/calendar/caldav.php/calendars/<username>/<calendarname>

It will use https by default. For one account, I had the "default calendar", which I entered as "default%20calendar" and the application was able to load it.

Hope this is useful to someone!

Laurent
