WebDAV with Mozilla Calendar?

[jimg]

Hi all:

Been bitten by the open source bug lately and have migrated over to Firefox / Thunderbird. Added in the Thunderbird-compatible calendar extension to migrate over my outlook info.

Unfortunately, I've been unsuccessful in getting WebDAV working - according to support, webDAV is installed / functioning correctly, yet I am unable to write anything in my hosted directory. I can place an ical file into the directory, chmod it to 777, view it via browser & calendar. Just can't get it to accept any changes.

Anyone else get webDAV to work? Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Was looking at the same options. Anybody else?

Did you guys get this working? I'm running into the same problem.

in both Thunderbird and Sunbird. However, it took a bit of work to get it going, and it was a while ago that it was set up.

The path in Thunderbird to the folder at issue was http://www.domain.com/calendar/calendars/CalendarName.ics

I don't really believe it was necessary to have the .ics files two deep (calendar/calendars) rather than just one deep (calendar), but I was trying a lot of different things, and when it worked I didn't want to tinker with it.

In the last month or two, I installed PHP iCalendar 2.24 and (eventually) was able to get its fake WebDAV working instead. As far as read/write functionality in Thunderbird goes, I don't think its any better or worse. (The PHP iCalendar program itself is read-only. However, it does --with the right settings -- allow Thunderbird read/write access to its calendar directory.) The only reason I now use it instead of WebDAV is that PHP iCalendar allows me to browse to a window including all of my calendars (input in Thunderbird) and print them in a close-to-acceptable format. If WebDAV simply won't work for you at all, you may want to try this option.
