Hi,
After upgrading to ML, my calendar service didn't want to start.
There is a "Error reading settings" message in the Server window when selecting "Calendar". Additionally, when clicking the "on" button, I get the following error:
The error occurred while processing a command of type 'getLocationList' in plug-in 'servermgr_calendar'.
Where do I start troubleshooting this issue?
I don't have an /etc/caldavd folder on my server
Well, I mean on your Lion volume. If you don't still have a copy of your Lion volume, look in /Library/Server/Previous/etc/caldavd -- it should have been copied there by the migration assistant.
Same here...
sjolshag$ locate caldavd.plist
/Library/Server/Previous/private/etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist
/Library/Server/Previous/private/etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist.default
There is a folder called /Library/Server/Previous
This has an etc folder within in that does have the caldavd/caldavd.plist in it. And the value of ServerRoot is:
</dict>
<key>ServerHostName</key>
<string></string>
<key>ServerRoot</key>
<string>/Library/CalendarServer/Documents/</string>
<key>ServerStatsFile</key>
<string>/var/run/caldavd/stats.plist</string>
<key>Sharing</key>
<dict>
<key>Enabled</key>
Wishing there was a "ditto" button 🙂
Same data (content) and location for me.

Does /Library/Server/Previous/Library/CalendarServer exist, and what are its contents?
Same questions for /Library/Server/Previous/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/ ...
Yes to both
# ls /Library/Server/Previous/Library/CalendarServer

bash-3.2# pwd
/Library/Server/Previous/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts

yes to both as well
I have tried several Snow -> Lion -> Mtn Lion upgrades today and can't reproduce the issue where /Library/Server/Previous/Library/CalendarServer exists and the /Library/Server/Previous/private/etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist has a ServerRoot value of "/Library/CalendarServer/Documents/".
Regardless, to get you unstuck, we first need to determine which directory has your calendar metadata; I use the term "metadata" because your actual calendar events are in the postgres database. Please paste the output of the following two terminal commands (before pasting to the forum, remove any private information like attachment names which may appear):
sudo find /Library/Server/Previous/Library/CalendarServer
sudo find "/Library/Server/Previous/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts"

davidcmn, was your Lion calendar service even working before the Mountain Lion upgrade? There is essentially no metadata in either of your two /Library/Server/Previous calendar-related directories.
To get you unstuck, first, if you have a "/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts" directory (note I'm not talking about the one in /Library/Server/Previous), rename it to something else because the following terminal commands will create a new one that contains a default configuration:
sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Config"
sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Data/Documents"
sudo echo "2" > "/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Data/Documents/.calendarserver_version"
sudo cp /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/private/etc/caldavd/caldavd.plist "/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Config"
sudo chown -R calendar:calendar "/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts"
You should then be able to start the calendar and contacts services.
sjolshag, you appear to have two sets of calendar-related directories, *both* with some amount of metadata. Problem is I can't tell by looking at the above output which is "real" one. You could carry out the same terminal commands I gave to davidcmn which essentially set up a new /Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/ directory from scratch, but then before starting calendar service you could copy mailgatewaytokens.sqlite-journal, mailgatewaytokens.sqlite, resources.xml, and proxies.sqlite files from the more recent /Library/Server/Previous directory, and copy them into /Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Data/
Your directions worked. I am no longer having the error.
Dear Cees,
for me the solutions was :
- set system language to English ( open terminal, type sudo languagesetup and choose option 1 )
- stop server components
- delete server app
- restart mac
-re-download server app from the app store
- reinstall
- problem solved (calendar working again)
I had this problem on 2 machines with the same setup
on one of my machines I ran in another problem, namely that the wiki didn't start , eventually I did an extra install of the server app, and everything came online.
hope this helps
yours

Calendar won't start after upgrade to Mountain Lion
