Ubuntu 18.04 and Owncloud 10.3.1

[4bob]

Hi,

I’m using ubuntu 18.04 for my onwcloud server.
The repository update 10.3 removed my contact sync as reported by FKBOX:

Problems with TbSync in Thunderbird with Owncloud 10.3 CalDAV and CardDAV

I changed plugin.php as discripted. [grafik] And I have no more problems with TBsync, and DAVx5 on my android phone is syncing and on my iphone integrated CardDAV is syncing fine with the ownclound contacts on two different accounts.

The fix in Post #6 worked for me. Plugin.php
Line 689 : list($part) = explode(’;’, $contentType ?: ‘’);

But now the patch released as 10.3.1 And my Owncloud Instance is fully out of control.
Can’t see any contacts or calender entry’s online; Thunderbird and contact sync fails again.

Could some please help me out?

Thank you.

Hey,

i think you need to apply the fix in posting #7 and not in posting #6 from:

Problems with TbSync in Thunderbird with Owncloud 10.3 CalDAV and CardDAV

I changed plugin.php as discripted. [grafik] And I have no more problems with TBsync, and DAVx5 on my android phone is syncing and on my iphone integrated CardDAV is syncing fine with the ownclound contacts on two different accounts.

or as suggested in:

Possible workaround for "Exception: explode() expects parameter 2 to be string" after update to ownCloud 10.3.0

Hey, today i have updated to the new ownCloud 10.3.0 and noticed that an error similar to the one below are showing up in my owncloud.log after starting Thunderbird / Lightning (which is connected to my ownCloud instance). {"reqId":"ZVQSyZMNKP6ij5YxoehY","level":4,"time":"2019-10-19T11:59:44+02:00","remoteAddr":"192.168.2.15","user":"Username","app":"webdav","method":"PROPFIND","url":"\/remote.php\/dav\/addressbooks\/users\/Username\/contacts\/","message":"Exception: explode() expects paramete…

This works for me quite good with ownCloud 10.3.1 as well and this is also the “official” fix by the Sabre project/library which will be hopefully included in some of the next ownCloud versions.

Hi,

thank you for your response.
You mean this section for the Plugin.php?

Fixed contenttype header being null

This doesn’t work for me. The error still appears. Can‘t access my calendar and contacts.

Did I miss something to fix this?
What are your recommendation?

[tom42]

Hey,

yes. Indeed i mean the changes to lib/CardDAV/Plugin.php of https://github.com/sabre-io/dav/pull/1191/files#diff-a30601c4d61ac4368a0675a8c4f0af1f where the ones which i have applied to my ownCloud 10.3.1 installation and which seems to work for many users including me.

I would recommend to double or triple check the modifications, maybe there was a problem while applying the changes to the file in your installation?

Hi; You’re right always to look closely
Unfortunately I’m not able to find it …

Anyway, the changes are already online, so it went straight forward with this:

cd /var/www/owncloud/
rm lib/composer/sabre/dav/lib/CardDAV/Plugin.php
cd lib/composer/sabre/dav/lib/CardDAV/
wget https://github.com/sabre-io/dav/raw/master/lib/CardDAV/Plugin.php

Now I’m back in business; Thank you!
