[Kolab-devel] [issue2980] "Error while uploading folder" after creating groupware folders

[Thomas Arendsen Hein]

New submission from Thomas Arendsen Hein <thomas at intevation.de>:

Kontact Version 1.2.9 (enterprise35 20080725.837785)
(and with many versions of enterprise35 before, I just got always told that
this is a known issue, but I can't find a suitable report for this)

When creating groupware folders (by enabling groupware support on an existing
account or by creating a new account with kolabwizard) on one of the next
starts of kontact I get this error dialog (not sure if it is always about
"Journal"):

Error while uploading folder
Could not make the folder Journal on the server.
This could be because you do not have permission to do this, or because the
folder is already present on the server; the error message from the server
communication is here:
Could Not Create Folder
An attempt to create the requested folder failed.
Details of the request:
URL: (unknown)
Date and time: Thursday 14 August 2008 16:34
Additional information:
imaps://user%40example.com@kolab.example.com:993/INBOX/Journal/
Possible causes:
Your access permissions may be inadequate to perform the requested operation on
this resource.
The location where the folder was to be created may not exist.
A protocol error or incompatibility may have occurred.
Possible solutions:
Retry the request.
Check your access permissions on this resource.


Looks similar to kolab/issue100 ("Can't create folder" message on sync)
and kolab/issue838 (Error while uploading folder) which got closed because
they couldn't be reproduced.

I can reproduce this with a clean $HOME and creating initial configuration
using kolabwizard.

As stated above I've seen this _very_ often and it is really annoying,
therefore please keep this to at least "urgent" until it is solved!
