CardDAV-Sync

If you use an LDAP backend for your contacts CardDAV is not yet supported in eGroupWare (see eGroupWare-users mailing list). However, there is a patch that has been reported to work here.

CalDAV-Sync

When chosing the calendar and infolog for synchronization with some installations this error arose:

org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException: calendar-query failed
org.dmfs.dav.CalDav.calendarQuery(CalDav.java:1300)
org.dmfs.dav.CalDav.loadResourceUpdates(CalDav.java:1145)
org.dmfs.caldav.syncadapter.SyncAdapter.sync(SyncAdapter.java:319)
org.dmfs.syncadapter.AbstractSyncAdapter.onPerformSync(AbstractSyncAdapter.java:96)
android.content.AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter$SyncThread.run(AbstractThreadedSyncAdapter.java:247)

Simlpy not syncing the infolog, but only the calendar did resolve the issue.
