February 2020 - Inf-IT DAV Clients

InfCloud stopped working

Hi, I've moved my DAViCal server to a new system (RPi4 w/ Raspbian). DAViCal now runs as a virtual https host under Nginx (the old system used Apache2). Now InfCloud stopped working. It just displays red exclamation marks. Oddly enough, none of the other DAViCal clients (vdirsyncer, android clients) experienced any problems, they all continued functioning without even blinking. Are there any special settings necessary for DAViCal / InfCloud when using Nginx? -- Johan

Spurious PROPFINDs from CalDAV-Sync
by Johan Vromans 21 Feb '20

Hi, It seems that Android client CalDAV-Sync/0.4.32 periodically issues PROPFIND requests to the configured DAViCal server, but with different paths. The DAViCal server is configured as https://davical.squirrel.nl/caldav.php/, but other paths used are: /remote.php/caldav/ /owncloud/remote.php/caldav/ /groupdav.php/ Is this normal behaviour? -- Johan

Login Page no longer visible

I'm just stumbling over an issue, that has been there then and now already in the past, but now seems to be persistant: I can no longer log into my infcloud instance as the Login screen is just empty. Looking in the page source in the Browser, I see that all containers have the attribute display:none Especially also <div id="LoginPage" style="opacity: 1; display:none"> What could I try to solve this ?

Issue with base64 images
by Ismael Bouya 01 Feb '20

Hello all, I’m using carddavmate and caldavzap for a long time, and I recently uncovered an issue: When I modify my contacts from infcloud, some of my pictures, the ones that get stored in png, have a field that looks like: ----- PHOTO;ENCODING=b;TYPE=png:data:image/png;base64,iVBO(...) ----- when exported. It seems like this kind of formatting is not supported, so I guess it’s not a standard one: when synchronizing with other clients, like the stock android app or khard, they crash or are unable to display the picture. As soon as I remove the "data:image/png;base64," part of the field, it starts working again. Is it an issue with infcloud? Note that it used to work for a long time without any issue, and quite recently I simultaneously upgraded and migrated from caldavzap+carddavmate to infcloud. I’m not absolutely sure what changed, but maybe it will ring a bell to some of you? Kind regards, -- Ismael
