Correct Urls for iCal / Sunbird / Lightning
Posted: Feb 25, 2008 10:55 PM

Hi,

Was struggling with this through a few threads etc., and happened upon the answer from playing around with the URLS on my own server.

This works for HTTPS:// (I presume for normal HTTP traffic, change to HTTP:// instead, and change port to 8008)

Users:

Sunbird - https://my.server.com:8443/calendars/users/<<username>>/calendar
iCal - https://my.server.com:8443/principals/users/<<username>>

Groups:

Sunbird - https://my.server.com:8443/calendars/groups/<<group>>/calendar/
iCal - https://my.server.com:8443/principals/groups/<<group>>/

I haven't tested it without a secure connection (i.e. #8008) so perhaps someone could confirm.

What's EXTREMELY annoying, is this BASIC info should by readily available at Apples Support site, in the documents accompanying the server etc. I shouldn't have to go rooting around forums to find this sort of info out.

Next MAJOR gripe: You would think with a bank balance slightly higher than mine (circa $18 billion) that Apple might have contributed to the Outlook plugin - or (shock) actually released one themselves for us to use.

Come on Apple, ... Kerio's latest release is 4 years ahead of you on the Mac platform!!!!

Just wanted to say thank you for this. I'm in the process of getting iCal Server up and running in a mixed environment and this helped greatly.

Why couldn't Apple include this info somewhere? Ridiculous.

There is some information on the open source wiki site that may be of help:
