killmasta93

Hi Manfred,
Thank you again for your help really appreciate it. This time i did the test with the outlook mail app
0_1542255999756_Clipboarder.2018.11.14-006.png
the subject is testing 4
the only part i found in the log that shows receive
would be this which i dont think its sending the request to the server

          14/11/2018 23:21:51 [29775] [WBXML] [gerencia] O        <POOMMAIL:DateReceived>
          14/11/2018 23:21:51 [29775] [WBXML] [gerencia] O        2018-11-15T04:21:53.000Z
          14/11/2018 23:21:51 [29775] [WBXML] [gerencia] O        </POOMMAIL:DateReceived>

This is the whole log

Hi killmasta93,

after you accept the meeting request, the appointment is only in Outlook’s calendar, isn’t it? Did you check if Outlook or mobile creates an appointment in the calendar after you open the meeting request in Outlook or on a mobile, but before you respond to the meeting request?

My guess is that Outlook and mobile devices create the appointments from meeting requests only locally and expect the server to handle this. If that’s the case, it would require quite some work on the combined backend to be able to handle it (if it’s possible at all).

Thanks for the reply, and appreciate all the help. That is correct on outlook after accepting the meeting it creates it locally but does not send it to the server which therefore does not sync across mobile device, as you mention could be something on the backend. I would like to somehow help or pay for that fix. I know its alot of work cant imagine the hours that you put in.

Hi killmasta93,

the caldav backend was a community contribution and the imap backend has a lot of community contributions as well. Right now we (Z-Push core team) don’t have any resources to address this issue. If someone would contribute a fix for it, we would of course review it and accept if it works as expected.

@manfred I can set a meeting withouth problems and gets synced. Do you have a caldav backend?. Are you setting the event in the calendar being synced?. Do you have personal calendar property of Z-push properly set?.

@killmasta93 is the one having issue, not me.

Hi @killmasta93,

I don’t know if it is still relevant. But I encountered the same issues as you did almost 2 years ago. I was able to figure out how to make it work again for me:

remove account from impacted devices
restart device
remove impacted account through z-push-admin (sudo -u www-data php7.3 z-push-admin.php -a remove -u USER -d DEVICEID)
execute a clearloop (sudo -u www-data php7.3 z-push-admin.php -a clearloop)
execute a fixstates ((sudo -u www-data php7.3 z-push-admin.php -a fixstates)
recreate account on impacted device
try again

I do even recommend removing the accounts of a user on different devices (if you have one phone, one Outlook and a tablet), remove all accounts on each of the devices as well as the account through the z-push-admin, reboot them, execute clearloop and fixstates and set them up again. I still ran into issues once in a while but overall it worked again. I will have to get my hands on all the devices that I am synchronizing right now and do the same on these. I can receive invites again and respond to them but when I send them they (at least with outlook) do not show up properly for the user that I am sending them to. really a big pain as otherwise z-push is the best thing since sliced bread. I just wished I could contribute and fix some of the stuff but it is just too complicated.
