Originally assigned to: @aluxnimm on GitHub.

Hi, I'm trying out CalDav Synchronizer between Outlook 2013 and a Sabredav installation. It seems to synchronize events that I organise, but not events that I have been invited to and have accepted; events where I am an attendee, not the meeting organizer. What can I look at to diagnose this issue?

Please provide a sync log and an example ics file which doesn't get synced properly.

Where to the attendees and their email addresses of the meetings that can't get synced come from? Exchange Adressbook, local, LDAP or GAL ? The problem is an invalid email address of the attendee.

A few UriFormatExceptions are thrown in CalDavDataAccess.CreateEntity().
From what I saw in the code, this can only happen, if the server sends a response header field 'location' with an relative Uri. Unfortunately I have no Sabredav-Account to verify if Sabredav is doing this.
Nevertheless i fixed it, because according to HTTP 1.1 it is valid that 'location' contains a relative Url.

Thanks for your help so far, I have downloaded and installed 0.97.3 and it is still doing the same thing. I have attached the latest log. To answer a previous question, the events are being synced from exchange to sabredav. The addresses will be from the Exchange GAL.

One of those errors was fixed in git but not released yet. Now that I know they are GAL addresses I will try to fix the other error and release a new version with both fixes later.

Another try with 0.97.5 :) If that doesn't work we need to use a version with more debug output to see what Addresstypes are used in your attendees.

OK, tried 0.97.6, no joy. There doesn't seem to be a progress bar either, but the log does get populated.

Ok I found another possible problem for exchange email accounts. Will try to fix that too and give you another debug version later on.

I have installed the debug version, but there is now no menu item in the ribbon at the top of Outlook. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling twice.

Just tried 0.98 (didn't try 0.97.8 because 0.98 was there) and 0.98 has worked. It has synchronized the events that I don't "own". Thanks. I'll keep an ey out for any more oddities.
