Events wrongly synchronized

[mokraemer]

I'm facing the fact, that some appointments, created in tine are wrongly synchronized. If the appointment is at 13:00, the synchronized time is set to 14:00 (e.g. opensync on android). This happens since the update to the newer versions.

Looking into the caldav entry, the data looks good so far, but I can see, there is a timezone definition added to every calendar entry. Due to RFC7809 4.3:

3. Clients can expect servers not to include standard time zone definitions in any iCalendar data they receive from the server, if there is no "CalDAV-Timezones" request header field in the HTTP request. Clients MUST retrieve standard time zone definitions either from its own cache of standard time zones or from the set of time zone distribution servers advertised by the CalDAV server (see Section 3.1.2).

The calendar entry should not contain this data.

Addtionally it looks like a synchronized thunderbird shows the appointment at the right time, but the reminder is shown 2h after the appointment.

[mokraemer]

It really looks wired what happens here and the appointments get moved and shown at the wrong times.

it looks like some calendar things come from caldav sync with thunderbird:

I've checked the lines in tine20_cal_attendee - there is a user_id; so I don't really understand the meaning of this log

I've compared what Outlooks sends for timezone and what is generated by tine: Outlook:

patching vendor/metaways/timezoneconvert/lib/TimeZoneConvert/VTimeZone.php with hardcoded old values solves the problem with thunderbird, OpenSync, ...

The newer strange definition does not work correctly!

what exact version of tine are you using? do you use our docker-images or any other hosting environment?

our unittests look normal, here the output from \Calendar_Convert_Event_VCalendar_MacOSXTest::testBackslashInDescription

this is Version: Ellie (2023.11.8) (latest official release)

it worked in Version 15.3 which I used before and broke after the update.

After startup (synchronize) of thunderbird events got moved:

from the other ticket i learned you're using php 8.2. tine supports 8.1 only atm. you can try the tests from https://github.com/tine20/timezoneconvert/tree/master to reproduce the problem. seems that https://php.net/manual/en/datetimezone.gettransitions.php changed its time format in 8.2

DateTimeInterface::ISO8601_EXPANDED (PHP 8.2 and later), or DateTimeInterface::ISO8601 (PHP 8.1 and lower) time string

fix is incoming ...
