Handling of TZ info from Lotus Notes
|
|
Davical is working well for me. However I have one oddity now that I am
receiving meeting invitations originating from Lotus Notes. They are
coming into a MS Exchange system, and I am forwarding them to my davical
server (on Linux FC14, Apache 2.2.17, php 5.3.4, davical 0.9.9.4, awl
0.46) for use with Thunderbird 3.1.10/Lightning 1.0b2 and iPhone4 4.3
clients.
The problem started when the UK switched to summer time (GMT+1, aka
GDT). An inbound invitation update this morning contained:
DTSTART;TZID="GMT -0000 (Standard) / GMT +0100 (Daylight)":20110511T100000
DTEND;TZID="GMT -0000 (Standard) / GMT +0100 (Daylight)":20110511T110000
On processing this davical logged
[Wed May 11 09:22:27 2011] [error] [client x.x.x.x] davical: ***: ERROR:
Couldn't guess Olsen TZ from TZID[GMT]. This may end in tears...
On the Exchange system and in Lightning, the meeting appears at 10-11,
but on the iPhone it is at 11-12.
Questions:
- Is the TZ info in the inbound message correct?
- Is there anything I can do within davical to work around it and avoid
the error?
- Whatever the davical interpretation, it appears that Lightning and
iPhone clients interpret whatever it stored differently. Should this be
possible?
Many thanks for any advice...
Chris
