Google calendar with gpe through scheduleworld

[MoxFulder]

Hi,
Is it possible to do that ? I have installed gpe-calendar but when I'm trying to sync, nothing appends. the ui gets refreshed but no sync..
any idea ?

[MoxFulder]

I have a result using WebDav but with this protocol, I cannot publish.
Any idea for syncml ?

[MoxFulder]

I continue the investigations, seems gpe for maemo doesn't support syncML

I have GPE Calendar on my device with three calendars:


A local one
A subscription to my Google Calendar (choose the 'iCal' link and put that in the URL field in GPE Calendar)
A subscription to my Outlook calendar via ScheduleWorld


More info can be found in this mailing list post (http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-users/2006-November/002294.html).

HTH,

Andrew

hi,
when you said "subscription", you can't publish right ?
If yes, do you know if a "real" synchronization exists ? In my case, I'm happy with subscribe to google calendar but because it is my principal calendar, I would like to publish too !

[aflegg]

Correct. GPE Calendar (at least on the 770) currently only supports calendars which go one way (either publish or subscribe)

Cheers,

Hi,
Ok, it's clear now. Did you try another pim application ? I'm looking for a syncML application but I'm afraid finding nothing..

I've been following this topic, and using GPE to subscribe to my scheduleworld calendar will exactly meet my needs. However I can't seem to get that working.

aflegg, I've followed your steps as you posted in your mailing list link.

in GPE:
1) Click the "New" button.
2) Enter a title and description.
3) Set the type to "Subscribe".
4) Enter the feed URL and other details.
5) Click "Save".

GPE doesn't receive any events from my SW calandar. What do I enter for the URL in GPE?
if GPE doesn't support syncML, then my guess is "http://sync.scheduleworld.com/funambol/ds" is not right.
then it must be using the webDAV or something in the scheduleworld preferences.

Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

[edit]
Well, I was able to subscribe using Mozilla Sunbird. The link I entered was webcal://www.scheduleworld.com/sw/webDAVDir/my calendar.ics

However, when I tryied that with GPE on the 770, I get a message "webcal://www.scheduleworld.com/sw/webDAVDir/my calendar.ics 4 cannot connect to destination"

I also tried changing the URL to http:// rather than webcal:// and I get the following message: "Error updating calendar superbondbond: invalid value in attribute RRULE."

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Go to the preferences page, enable "Password protected WebDAV" and copy the iCal URL (starts with "http://" ends with ".ics") to the URL field in GPE Calendar.

I did the same as aflegg said. Works but I can't publish.

[superbondbond]

Thanks Andrew,

Turns out that was the url I was using when I got the "invalid value in attribute RRULE" message. IT is working, but yet it isn't.

I ran across this after some googling.

Looks like there is an attribute that Scheduleworld utilizes in recurring events that GPE does not like.

Have you run into this before?

I've been in touch with the developers of the GPE Suite. SyncML/Opensync support is coming soon <http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/GpeThingsToDo>. They recently moved to a new site <http://projects.linuxtogo.org/projects/gpe/> where they maintain maling lists. GPE seems the most mature of any of the PIM apps, and the only one with a suite. I use the to do and time tracker a lot. Jpilot would be very nice but no one's ported it to OS 2006. Supposedly it worked quite well on OS 2005? I hope this helps, maybe those that can will help with the existing projects. There's a lot of us waiting eagerly for this to work.

Peter

That is a good news :rolleyes:

Tried to publish to google calendar, but it says 404, not found,
any idea?
Is possible to make parent of my calendar another one to subscribe, and parent to this the first one ?

I just got this working through the .ics url... Does ScheduleWorld sync automatically with Google Calendar, or do you have to actually hit the Sync link each time you want it to update from Google?
