        WebApp gets which elements to remind about from a searchfolder, so rebuilding those could potentially help here as well:

        from man kopano-server

               --restart-searches, -R
                   Rebuild all search folders. This may take some time and is only needed when your search folders have become out-of-sync with the actual data in the database. The sync will
                   start synchronously at the start of the server, and you will have to wait for all searches to complete before connecting to the server.
        
        

        @gerald said in Reminder from already deleted calendar appointment keeps on popping up:

        Those reminders pop up in both Outlook as well as in WebApp

        Since you mention outlook. If you are referring to the old Zarafa mapi client you could probably also fix this by opening outlook with the /cleanreminders switch. see https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/outlook/1756-outlook-clear-all-reminders.html#repair for more information.

          I had the same issue this morning. I got a reminder for an object which was deleted, but still in the softdelete folder. As a result, WebApp kept bugging me with a reminder which could not be closed, as the appointment was not in the calendar.

          Purging the softdelete fixed it.

          To me, this sounds like a bug: either there should be no reminder (because there is no appointment in the calender), or dismissing a reminder must look in the calender as well as in the softdelete area.

            Same problem today for one user. Purging the softdelete finally fixed it for me too.

                I also had this issue - running
                kopano-admin --purge-softdelete 1 -v
                fixed it :-)

                    Hi,
                    if I understand this here right:
                    https://doc.zarafa.com/trunk/Administrator_Manual/en-US/html/_soft_delete_system.html

                    than there is no restore possible.

                    But how exactly softdelete ist working - I am not sure, what you can see here: https://forum.kopano.io/topic/1039/deleting-emails-does-not-reduce-mailbox-size/4
                    best regards
                    Andreas

                      Hello together,

                      if you delete an item, this item is not deleted for real but get the “softdelete-flag”. this is used to hide this item under the deleted path and show it under “restore items”.
                      by default kopano-server is configured to harddelete all softdeleted items older than 30 days. After that you cant restore this item without having external backup or archiving. (wich is highly recommended and even more nessercary when looking at DSGVO etc., comeing this year)
                      e.g. mariadb working with innodb wont free the physical disk space from disk, but will allocate new items etc. within this space.
                      After deleteing a hugh ammount of items (had this case with over 1.9 mio elements) i cleaned up my db by using the command described later in the posted link from @AnotherAndy.
                      the result was a cleaned up and much better performing db :)
                      but be careful, you need the physical diskspace from the biggest table stored within your data directory additionaly on your disk.
                      the sqlcheck will copy every table file per file and create a new one, replacing the current.

                        Good afternoon,

                        Following problem:

                        I have a reminder, I click “Dismiss” and I get:

                        Cannot dismiss the reminder. You may be reminded again.

                        This has happened only recently, I never had this issue before.

                        The event was added to the calendar well after the upgrade of Kopano core and after the recent update of Webapp.

                        Current versions:

                        WebApp:
                        3.4.10.1330+755.1
                        Kopano Core:
                        8.5.4
                        Z-Push:
                        2.4.0+0-0

                        If I click “Dismiss” or “Dismiss All” I get the error message and the event keeps coming up.

                        I have tried with the old zarafa webaccess (which still runs on my server) and the reminder comes up but clicking “Dismiss” nothing happens and the event stays up.

                        The event was created via z-push on my android phone.

                        Manually deleting the event in the calendar didn’t solve the issue at all, although the event is gone in the calendar, reminders still come up.

                        In the end the only way to fix it was to purge-softdelete with 0 as a parameter.

                        Something is broken somewhere… Particularly as a number of people noticed it so far.

                        Perhaps the latest version of z-push prod, not sure. This is the first time that I see this happening on my system.

                          As far as I can see it seems to be a privilege problem. I came across the same error when I deleted an event (and also when I changed another) on another user’s calendar. We have mutual mailbox access, but I never bothered with setting the correct privileges for me since I’m also administrator and the force is with me. After changing the privileges for the relevant items (set mailbox and calendar to “full access”, so no refined research for now) deleting an event on the other calendar worked as expected: No more reminder!

                            Second user with this problem.
                            The reminder is comming every few seconds for an older element.

                            There seams to be an issue with this.

                              @Jo-TL,

                              which z-push version do you use - also 2.4.0?
                              and from where did you create this calendar item?

                                This is a known issue in the 8.5 release of kopano and most likely linked to kc-1074. The latter has received a fix yesterday. After it has received some testing we are going to put out a new 8.5 update.

                                  Mine wasn’t a cross user event. It was something that I created myself in my own inbox just a couple of days earlier and then the problem occurred.

                                    I don’t have z-push installed or outlook in use. The items are created in the local calendar with deskapp.

                                      Question, does this build:

                                      https://download.kopano.io/supported/core:/pre-final/tarballs/core-8.5.90.0_0%2B5-Debian_8.0-amd64.tar.gz

                                      include the fix or that’s only for now in 8.6 in mainline?

                                          I was wondering if the commit is now available in mainline. I keep getting the same problems

                                            same here, just received a call from an employee. She is getting reminders of a shared mailbox which were 2 months ago. She cannot acknowledge nor delete them. The error message in german is “Outlook kann diese Erinnerung nicht abschalten. Die Erinnerung wird möglicherweise erneut erfolgen. Zugriff verweigert” which means something like “Outlook cannot disable this reminder. The reminder possibly will reoccur. Access denied”.
