[Opensync-users] Trying to Sync palm pilot with Kontact

[Roshan M. <ros...@gm...>]

After what seemed like a successful sync (the Palm screen looked like
it was syncing), I opened up Kontact and found it empty.  Please let
me know if there is anything else I can provide to help.  Thanks.

Here are the steps I took:

msynctool --addgroup kdepalm
msynctool --addmember kdepalm palm-sync
msynctool --addmember kdepalm kdepim-sync
msynctool --showgroup kdepalm
Groupname: kdepalm
Member 1: palm-sync

Member 2: kdepim-sync
        No Configuration found: This member has no configuration options
msynctool --sync kdepalm

I went back and managed to find the syncmlclient plugin that I somehow
missed all this time.  Haven't got it working yet, but it looks like
contact and calendar syncing is available.

Unfortunately we don't have this feature on opensync, today. It is in our 
wishlist (I think it will probably come with the merging feature, as once we 
have a finer control on the fields on each side to allow merging, we can also 
have control on conversion of fields between the both sides, also).

Have you used the "Archive Old Entries..." action in the File menu? It have 
worked here (KDE 3.5.4 on Mandriva Cooker). I just needed to select 
the "Delete only, do not save" option.

The syncml plugin and libsyncml work as a "syncml server". What you seem
to need is the syncml-client plugin (that uses the Sync4j syncml client
library). But I have never used it.

I think support for working as a syncml client (and a plugin or utility
for using this mode) is planned for libsyncml, but I don't know how far
we are from this.

Thanks for the reply Matthias.

> What about syncml-http-server .... this depends on TCP IP.

If I understand correctly, syncml-http-server actually starts a server
on the localhost that allows other syncml clients to connect.  I'm
trying to connect (as a client) to an existing SyncML enabled http
server elsewhere and use it as a source of data (I don't have control
over the remote syncml server).

It'd be great if you could CC me on any replies.

[Opensync-users] Strange behaviour after deleting events on mobile-phone

[Achim S. <Ach...@mn...>]

Hi,

I deleted some old event on my mobile, because I wasn't able to do this with 
KDEPIM (see other email).

Afterwards, I get the following conflict messages:

===>>
The Entry1 is a report from KDEPIM (libkcal-... UID), while Entry2 is 
obviously stemming from irmc-sync (even if I added them in other order....)

Somehow, opensync detected already that the entry has to be deleted, because 
there is NO event-start/end date in Entry1. There are only entries on 
<DateCalendarCreated>, <DateCreated>, <LastModified>

The Entry2 values reflect a funny sort of deleting an event.

Does this information help already, or do you need any traces?

[Opensync-users] Optimization of entry matching irmc-sync and kdepim-sync

[Achim S. <Ach...@mn...>]

Hi,

I sync between KDEPIM and irmc-sync. Sadly, the standard telephone number 
labels of both of them vary. The mobile phone knows only an entry "Fax" while 
KDEPIM manages as default entries "Fax (Business)" and "Fax (Private)". This 
way, several phone number types can NOT be seen in the tabular display in 
kontact. I see those details, only when I select the individual person entry, 
so that I see all entries in the right half of the window.

Therefore I'd like to have a config file, where I can correlate labels of both 
sides. For each entry, that isn't specified by such a special rule, the 
default identic-map should rule.


####
Another problem with KDEPIM:
I tried to delete older entries than xx with KDE 3.5.4 in Kubuntu Dapper.
Kontact selected the appropriate events, but didn't delete them (it exported 
them to the OLD-EVENT file - but didn't delete them from the normal lists).

Am I the only one, who has this problem?

[Opensync-users] Mobile Phone Reset on handling of strange item

my mobile phone ( has been change by shop to current W800i firmware), does

So somehow an empty entry made it to the DB, which in turn caused problems

Hey all,

I'm just trying to synchronize my evolution calendar / contacts with a

client over bluetooth or USB, not generically over a TCP/IP stack.  Is this
the case, or am I just missing something?

[Opensync-users] kdepim plugin doesn't find the kdedirs

[Stefan W. <wo...@fs...>]

Hi,

When trying to configure the kdepim plugin from svn it doesn't find the=20
KDE-headers if they are installed e.g. in /usr/kde/3.5/...=20
 This is solved by putting KDE_SET_PREFIX in configure.in before=20
AM_KDE_WITH_NLS. Please change this in SVN.
I already made a ticket, but it seems like no one is interested in this...

Sorry for the delay.  It looks like that covers the specific
requirements for privacy, so please find the traces from a
re-run sync between the two systems at this URL:

    http://rimspace.net/osync-trace-kde-nokia6680.tar.gz

They were too big to send through the gmane interface that I use to read
the list, and besides, not everyone needs 4MB of trace files from me.

I can leave them there forever, pretty much, so go for your life.


There are also a whole slew of data preservation issues between the two
systems, among which are:
 - Symbian alarms are lost from Calendar entries
 - Undetected duplication of Calendar entries
 - "Memo" type events change to "Meeting" type events
   - this happened only when the duplicate was sent from KDE to the
     phone

I believe that these are known issues, and that there isn't (currently)
much to be done because the infrastructure for mapping one platform to
another is in development.

If that isn't correct, and there is some way that I can help by
discovering and mapping the format used by the Symbian OS calendar or
whatever, please let me know.  

I don't have a huge level of free time, but I can try and work on this
because it is a pretty desirable solution for me.

Great.  Well, if there is anything else that would help I am happy to do
what I can.

YES, it worked !!

But there occured another problem. but i think i've seen it before in the ticket system/mailing list. 
It may not be a bug, because i only tested twice, but i'll describe you the situation.

i synchronized all contacts from evo2 to irmc (s55). everything went fine. i started another sync a few seconds later and opensync wasn't able to detect, that there were no changes. so it updated all the contacts again, without need.

Is this a known problem? if not, i'm willing to dore more testing and open a report in opensync's ticketsystem.

best regards, 
flo

[Opensync-users] hanging on slow sync, kdepim

[<br...@un...>]

I am using the latest  Jahn packages on debian testing/unstable.  I have a
group with kdepim, and file sync (onto a sshfs file system, but I
don't think this should matter).  I am syncing address and calendar
info, but neither application is running.  I am using msynctool to
drive things.

If I slow sync (e.g. by interupting and restarting), it hangs after
sending many changes to member 1, and before 
the message 'Member 1 of type file-sync committed all changes.'

If I delete .opensync/group1/lock and resync, it works.

At the moment, I feel like there is not enough information to submit a
useful ticket. Any suggestions?

[Opensync-users] Status of SyncML/Evolution combination

[mlists <ml...@dr...>]

It's been a while since I've looked at Opensync.  Last time I tried it,
there was a problem with the syncML and evolution combination with my
Nokia 6620.  

Apparently, if I'm recalling correctly, it was a problem in the Opensync
code itself.

What is the status of this now?  Would like to know if there are
sufficient changes that I should try it again.

Thanks

[Opensync-users] Opensync & P900: some partial success

[Olivier S. <ol...@sm...>]

Hi all,

Yesterday, I managed to get some information from the P900 in my PC.

First of all, my P900 was configured to synchronize calendar, contacts
and notes. To support this multi-database sync, msynctool must be
started with the --multi option. I forgot this before...

I then tried one database at a time.

For the purpose of the test, I use syncml-http-server to file-sync.
(Don't want to loose my evolution files :-) )

Sync'ing the contacts seems to work. It should be noted that none of my
P900 contacts have a picture associated with them.

Sync'ing the agenda is another story. Of course, my agenda on the P900
contains all the elements I imported from my previous PDA (Palm). There
are a lot of entries (although I always use(d) the PDA quite
moderately). After the init phase, the P900 sent all its agenda entries.
The PC started replying but the communication has stopped in the middle
of a Status command for an unknown reason. At TCP level, the P900 has
ACK'd those packets.

I tried limiting the amount of data exchanged per batch by setting
recvLimit to 48000 but it did not have any good or bad effect.

Sync'ing notes fails after the init phase.

Best regards,


Olivier

Yes. I committed today a feature to toggle the privacy level of the trace=20
function. This require that you update opensync to the latest revision. To=

toggle the privacy level that none sensitive information leaks - use:

export OSYNC_TRACE=3D/tmp/osync_trace/;
export OSYNC_PRIVACY=3D1;

Please check the trace file if any private information is leaking before=20
sending. This is quite new and not well tested yet.

There is a tool called "osyncdump" which can reset the database with the=20
mappings.

So far the entries seems to be correct. I cannot imagine that the detector =

not able to detect them... so let us see if the trace files are helping ;)

I'm using the new sunbird plugin, and it works fine as long as the 
webdav server is set to accept http, but if the server changes to use 
https, it will not connect.  It is supposed to support https:?

a little off topic:
I tried to export to CSV from kaddressbook - but it didn't export several of 
my colums (e.g. several types of phone number are ignored).
Is there any way to configure this, so that I get a really complete CSV 
export, which I can use for my filtering?

Thanks,

[Opensync-users] Questions regarding data based filtering and some KDEPIM issues

[Achim S. <Ach...@mn...>]

Hi,

is there any possibility to restrict the sync from KDEPIM to the mobile phone 
to:
a) contacts which have at least ONE phone number (mobile, normal, ...)
b) events in calendar which are not in the past (or not older than xy days)

Possible Optimization:
a) would allow me to avoid filling my complete mobile phone book with entries 
that are only of interest for KDEPIM to send emails.

b) woud reduce the amount of checked calendar data --> also reduce amount of 
conflicted events (see my other email). The mysnctool (before openync) had an 
irm-sync option to filter event by their age.

##
I performed some edits in my KDEPIM address book, hit SAVE and sometimes even 
closed kontact, cleared my mobile phone address book BEFORE I performed a 
opensync sync session.

But I had the impression, that some contact entries in the mobile phone were 
created, which I removed BEFORE SAVE in kontact. 
--> I have the impression, that kdepim-sync takes some sort of cached data,
    which had not yet been updated

Is this a known problem? Or should I perform some more detailed experiments?

In case of already known
-> is there a workaround other then logout->login cycle?

((I removed several entries of telephone numbers without any name from 
kontact/addressbook hit SAVE and then synced --> but some entries in phone 
are still numbers without name -> something went wrong ==> my K750i reached 
the limit of 500 entries so that some other contact data werent written to 
K750i data))

##
My KDE addressbook is currently distributed to several resources.
I'd like to reorganize them to:
+ entries with at least names, numbers in resource A
+ entries with at least names, email   in resource B
+ all the rest                         in resource C

I found no entry to configure the storage position for a single entry.
Should I export my address book to some sort of CSV which I can then sort and 
reorganize with some external tool?


Thanks,
Achim

[Opensync-users] Help: does the latest libsyncml release support Device Management?

[Mark W. <wqh...@ya...>]

Hi, all

Form http://libsyncml.opensync.org/, I get to know that one of the goal of libsyncml is "Implement the Data Synchronization part. Optionally the Device Management part later" and support "SyncML 1.0/1/2".
I searched the Opensync-users mailing list but didn't find any information. May I ask whether the latest libsyncml release support Device Management V1.2? Whether can i find more information about the support of Device Management? 

Thanks in Advance!

No. The patch is included since wbxml version 0.9.2. We should update the

[Opensync-users] Nokia E70 & syncml-http-server: Broken Pipe

[Tim D. <ti...@in...>]

Hi,

I've been trying to my Nokia E70 to sync using syncml-http-server.

Each add command looks like this:

<Add><CmdID>7</CmdID><Item><Source><LocURI>1</LocURI></Source><Meta><Type
xmlns="syncml:metinf">text/x-vcard</Type><Version

END:VCARD 0d  0a ]]></Data></Item></Add>

Initially I was getting "wrong initial Node: Type" errors, but the hack
in the attached patch got me a bit further, but now I'm getting:

timmy@kingmob ~ $ msynctool --sync filehttp --wait
Synchronizing group "filehttp"

There are no errors in the syncml traces, just the ones in the osync

Any help would be appreciated.

[Opensync-users] syncml-obex-client error - wbxml2 patch

[Kevin J. <rin...@kj...>]

Hi all
Just got some time to try syncing with my 6680 again - built latest from
source, and getting an error from syncml-obex-client about "wrong
initial node: NumberOfChanged". I noticed in the wiki there's a note
about applying a patch to wbxml2, called 'misc/wbxml2-0.9.0.patch'.

When I went to download the source (from the link in the wiki), I
noticed that the latest version is 0.9.2. Do we still need to apply the
patch?

Cheers,
KEv.
