Re: HOWTO: Syncevolution with N900
 
Hi

This seems very interesting - the inability to synchronise calendar over IP is one of the major drawbacks of the n900.
What I need is to sync with Oracle Calendar (directly, not via google or the like).
I have installed Syncevoltion with GUI, and there is a Oracle tab, that I tried to fill in with the relevant informatin, but it didn't work:(
Anybody got this to work?
And if so, how;)
Can I just use the GUI, or do I need to do some magic in a terminal?

Re: HOWTO: Syncevolution with N900
 
Sorry, but I am still trying to get sync between my N900 and a new server setup to work. Never ending story. Sync between evolution running on my laptop and the server works but N900<->server produces the following error messages:

Code:

Nokia-N900-51-1:~$ syncevolution funambol
Local data changes to be applied to server during synchronization:
*** memo ***
Comparison was impossible.
*** calendar ***
Comparison was impossible.
*** addressbook ***
Comparison was impossible.

[INFO] CurlTransport Failure: couldn't connect to host
[INFO] SyncContext: resend previous request #1
[INFO] CurlTransport Failure: couldn't connect to host
[INFO] Transport giving up after 1 retries and 6:18min
[ERROR] transport failed, retry period exceeded

The network connection N900<->server is estabished via usb. I can ping the server from the N900. After a couple of minutes, however, pinging is not possible anymore. Maybe, some energy saving mode blocks the connection?

Any ideas?

while syncing with google. should i use my "username@gmail.com"
or just "username"

Thank you.

I guess you're using the gui. It auto capitalises the username and password, for Google the password is case sensitive so check if that;s the problem, it was for me and I felt so stupid when I noticed!

i have no solution but the same problem, would be nice to get this solved... but i don't now maybe it's a limitation of the funambol server!?

Re: HOWTO: Syncevolution with N900
 
I have tried to setup a Google sync but it fails. Standard installation and I chose the Google template. Entered my credentials (with correct capitalisation).
First sync with only contacts enabled works. When enabling calendar sync fails with "Error 404".
I enabled the calendar sync, entered calendar database as "<firstname> <lastname>" as it is listed as in the webbrowser(Google). I have tried all the options "Normal sync", "Slow sync", ...

Just for testing I changed the Contacts database from "contacts" to "contactss" and disabled calendar sync. Then I got the Error 404 again. So what is wrong. Am I entering the wrong name as my Google calendar database?

Google does not provide SyncML for calendar, only for contacts.
