Group Calendar Anonymous Displaying

I'm trying to display a group calendar vi anonymous but I am having a bit of a difficult problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Todd

I figured out a work around but it would be nice to display GROUP Calendars via anonymous. The workaround is to create a calid (useranem) for every calendar you want to group together. Then on ww command line you can call or calids that you want grouped and it will group them into one calendar ie. http://mycalendar.com/command.shtml?calid=username1;username2;userndame3;username4&view=weekview

Calendars not displaying correctly.

My shared calendar is not displaying at least one user's information, it may be two users but that user has not created an event to show up on my calendar.
This user is clearly in the group and I have added the groups calendar to display. I have not had a chance to look at the user's calendar settings to investigate but I'm pretty sure they are default like all of the other users.
Does anyone have any idea of what's going on?

You need to verify that the calendar permissions are correct for you to see appointments and that the appointments aren't marked private.

I would start narrowing down the problem by removing group members one by one and seeing if there is a particular member which is causing the problem. Then look at that account and see if there is anything different/unusual etc.

Find your main Options icon on the homescreen... could be called Settings or Tools or Options.
Then, Advanced.
I honestly don't know if the Group Calendar can be synced to Outlook. I will ask a friend.

Strange problems with iCal group calendar

Hi,
I got some strange problems with group calendar. They are evil so that we may decide to throw it away because under this cirumstances it's not usable for our company.
1) If we add events running more than one week in webcalendar, we can see it in the actual week, but not in the following weeks.
2) The webcalendar seems to be 2 hours in the future, we cannot find how to change time zone or whatever. We can see, that we added a new event at 4pm, in the list of recent changes we see that this event was added at 6pm.
3) In the Wiki we can see the usernames in the list of recent changes, but in calendar there is only unknown. But there are no anonymous users, only named users within these group.
Any idea?
Thanks
Rene

If I hadn't been using iCal/Google Calendar for over 18 months, with reminders from both systems playing nicely over that period, I'd happily agree with you. The issue with Reminders only began (for me, at least) in February this year. I agree that there's potential for conflict, and maybe both sets of developers finally threw in the towel. This is a pity, because I like both systems, but I feel slightly irritated at being effectively told by Google or Apple that I have to choose sides.

How to create a group calendar?

Hello,
i am sorry but this is one more question on wiki-group-calendars.
*In short:*
I am not able to create a group calendar with the wiki frontend. the calendar that is created with a wiki is owned by the admin of the wiki. So it is always a personal calendar that cannot be shared in iCal.
LONG:
I want to create a group calendar that is viewed and edited through iCal.app and the web service. Apple´s "wiki deployment" guide says on page 57:
+"The web calendar allows you to easily schedule events for yourself or your group. ...+
+There are *two types of web calendars: personal and group*. You can send and receive event invitations through the personal calendar but not through the group calendar. Also, *while anyone in a group can create or edit events in a group calendar*, you can edit only events in your own personal calendar or event invitations you send to other people.+
+The web calendar uses iCal Server to store events and invitations. ..."+
But there is not mentioned how to create a group calendar. The calendar created with the wiki web-frontend belongs to the admin of that particular wiki. This is why the calendar data ist stored in folder named with the UUID of the wiki admin. Also the alias "http://server.fqdn:8008/principals/groups/mygroupname/" which i provided in iCal turns into ..._uids_UUID-of-the-wiki-admin and only the wiki-admin can access this calendar in iCal.app.
My research on this topic reveals that there were in issue that should be resolved in 10.6.4 (that is running on our Server). So, again, how to create a group calendar?
Thanks, Philipp.

Could you be more specific farmer tan, please?
You said "you need to go to the wiki page and add the wiki's there...." What is the "wiki page" you mention? Is that some place I go to via the browser or the Server Admin tool?
I went to http://ical.mysite.com/ical/ and logged in as the Directory Administrator but didn't see anything resembling what you described.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

How do I access group calendars on 10.8 server from a calendar client?

Hi,
I have a brand new installation of 10.8.2 . I installed the server app and started Calendar, Contacts, DNS, File Sharing, Mail, Open Directory and the Wiki services. I created a group with some users in it. I also created a group wiki and enabled the calendar for that wiki. The user group has r/w access to the wiki. The web interface to the wiki works from a client 10.8.2 client system. I can edit the group calendar through the web interface. I created an account in the Calendar application that connects to the server and shows the users' calendar. I altered the server path to /principals/__uids__/wiki-GROUPNAME/.
The calendar shown is still that for the user and not the one of the group. Hence my question: how do I access group calendars on a 10.8 server from the calendar application on a client?

Forgot to mention, you can techinically force it to work, but iCal breaks it for some unknow reason, taking it back to the users account after a day or two. The best work around has been to create a new user, named the group name, and then allow delegates to access the calendar. This however screws things up with the iphone calendar, as it didn't/doesn't handle delegates. Again, hoping Apple comes to their senses on this.
You can still delegated calendars on iOS, but the setup is a little tricky. You have to add an entirely new calendar account, and enter the full ugly url with the users uuid. It would be so nice if iOS just supported CalDav delegation.

How do I create a group calendar in iCal Server 3?

Hello everyone,
I have set up a Mac Mini server to address the calendaring needs of my company. I have also turned on the iCal service using the Server app in the Lion OS. While the shared calendaring functions for individual users of iCal are great, my company is in need of general office calendar for postings of things like vacation times, company holidays, special conferences, etc. Is there a way to configure the Mac Mini server to allow the setup of such a calendar?
Maximus. Prime

Okay, with everyone's help, I believe I have found a resolution to this issue. I am very grateful to everyone who has contributed this discussion. Your help has been invaluable.
1. The first thing I did was to ensure that the iCal and Wiki servers were both running.
2. Next, I created a user whose sole purpose was to create wikis on the server. (In retrospect, I probably didn't have to do this, as any administrative account, which is what I have, can also make wikis).
3. I then created a wiki. To do this open up your Web browser and enter in the name of your server followed by "/wiki" (no quotes). An example of this is servername.local/wiki. (If you are unsure as to whether or not DNS on your local network is working, you can enter the IP address of the server followed by /wiki).
4. Next login into the wiki by clicking on the lock icon in the toolbar. (You can use the account you created earlier or any admin account on the iCal server for login).
5. Click the Wikis button.
6. Click the plus sign in the toolbar, then click New Wiki.
7. Enter a name and optional description. It is much better to enter a short name with no spaces. This will matter in a later step.
8. Next you will see the Set Wiki Access dialog box. Here is where you can enter users of the wiki (calendar), and their permissions (i.e. Owner, Read-Write, etc.).
9. When done with the previous step, click create, and you should be taken to the "welcome" page of your wiki.
10. Click the gear icon in the toolbar then select settings.
11. Select Services in the sidebar, put a check into the Calendar box, and select Save.
12. You should now see a link for Calendar underneath your toolbar. Select it, then select Settings to adjust your timezone settings, etc.
13. You can log out of the wiki at this point.
14. Go to one of the users who was given access to the wiki in step 8.
15. Open iCal -- Preferences then select the Accounts tab.
**Now here is where things get "tricky."**
16. It is likely that this user has a functioning account on your iCal server. If you go to the Server Settings tab of the account and check the Server Path, you will see an entry similar to /principals/__uids__/longstringofalphanumericcaharacters/.
17. Replace the long string of alphanumeric characters with "wiki-wikiname" (no quotes). The wikiname is the name you entered in step 7.
18. Close the iCal preferences box, and close iCal.
19. The user may be prompted to re-enter his/her password. Do so, and afterward you should be have access to the wiki-based group calendar.
UH OH...what about the user's normal account?!?!?!
20. Go back into the account preferences tab of iCal and re-add the user's normal iCal account with his/her normal credentials. All of the user's calendar information should return because it is on the server and backed up regularly...right?
This solution appears to be working for me so far. I have verified that users who can only read from the wiki calendar do not have the ability to edit the calendar. Of course, those who can edit the calendar are able to do. These test users are also able to use their normal iCal accounts without any issues.

Using a wiki group calendar in ical

Dear all,
I have searched the forum now for quite some hours but I haven't found any sollution. I am running a Lion Server 10.7.2. I have setup iCal server and a wiki. I am trying to set up a group calendar, which is working, BUT I am having trouble to setup my iCal accessing that specific calendar.
Let's presume I am trying to get this work for testing in my own LAN first, so I am currently working with IP-addresses.
Server IP: 192.168.100.37
wiki's name: test
I can access the calendar through the webserver but of course I wanna use iCal.
I have learned from other posts that the iCal-account should be set up like this
http://mainserver.example.com:8008/principals/__uids__/wiki-intern/
This would mean for my server
http://192.168.100.37:8008/principals/_uids_/test
if I am correct. However iCal is telling me afterwards that no calendar has been found on the server. Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?
Thank you so much.

hi andre,

I can subscribe to a group / wiki calendar in iCal.
I can add an event on the wiki calendar as a user.
But I want a user to be able to add an event to a group calendar in iCal.

ICal Group Calendar - Line command

Does anyone know how to create a group calendar other than through the wiki interface? I would think there is a line command as well.
I have created group calendars on several osx servers in the past. I have two 10.6.4 servers that seem to have an authorization or communication issue when creating the calendar through the wiki.
Apache: *PROPFIND /principals/wikis/company/ HTTP/1.1" 500 201*
Ical err Failure: *twisted.internet.error.ConnectionRefusedError: Connection was refused by other side: 61: Connection refused*.
Accessing the group calendar through the wiki give in in browser error:
quest URL:
*https://www.mycompany.com/principals/wikis/company/*
*Request Method:PROPFIND*
*Status Code:500 Internal Server Error*
I thought I'll debug it further by creating a group calendar by command line. Does anyone know how to do that? Or any other suggestions where to continue?

Thanks for that, Jonathan, but it appears to have a problem: you apparently can't use the Address Panel if you fill in the Account URL field, and all the attendees I fill in to events aren't "real" they have little exclams before their name, instead of check marks.
It seems that the Address Panel only works with accounts that have "Automatically discover server address" checked, and each account for which you have that checked must have a different Username -- you can't use a group name.
I suppose you could set up dummy user names so you could access the groups somehow, AND have the Address Panel working properly...
It's too bad this stuff doesn't work better. I'll bet it doesn't get better before the next "kitty" release, 18-24 months from now...

How to set up group calendar

Hi - I have set up a server on my mac pro. I have everything configured between the server and the clients, and the calendars are able to invite / respond to calendar events from others. What I am wondering about, however, is how to create a common shared group calendar where everyone sees everything that everyone does on the group calendar. I.e. not just events 'shared' or invited to...
Thanks,
Gareth

"currently there is no shared group calendar support."
Well, not really. You hinted at it with: "set up a group wiki."
Go into Workgroup Manager and set up an Open Directory group. Add people to it.
Each client must then go into iCal --> Preferences --> Accounts and add an account. The name and password entered must be the same as that added to the group, Kerberos must be unchecked, and the account URL will be like (fill in the blanks properly):
http://<your domain name here>:8008/principals/groups/<your group name here>/
Now each properly logged in user of that group can make changes to the shared group calendar, without any "hacks" like making dummy users and delegation.
However, I am getting a notifier: "Request Error: Accesss to <event name> in <your group name here> in account <your group name here> is not permitted." But that seems to be a lie, since multiple members of the group can make changes and others can see the changes.
Oh yea, make sure you have a functioning DNS with valid reverse lookup.

How do I create a group calendar?

Hi All,
It is still unclear to me on a fresh 10.6 install how to create a group calendar (using only the Apple server administration utilities) such that all members of a given OpenLDAP group can also subscribe to and share the same calendar if they are members of that group.
As best I can tell, there does not appear to be anything about this in the documentation. I thought this was something that was going to be supported via the server-admin tools in 10.6 without resorting to the command line.
Maybe I'm just not seeing something obvious in the tools or documentation?

Group calendar on wiki doesn't work but individual calendars do.

We have 10.6.3 server running as a OD master and I was looking to use the group calendaring feature of the wiki server. I go to the server using a web browser, sign in, and create a new wiki called "test". I then go into settings for the wiki and enable Calendar as one of the services. I save the settings and get a calendar link at the top of the page for the wiki. When I try to view the calendar I get the message in the middle of the page that says "Getting events from server ..." This never goes away.
When I go to view the calendar for my user, it comes right up. It seems that I have things configured well enough for the web and iCal servers to talk to each other, but something is going wrong with the wiki portion.
Since we are dealing with CalDav I started by using a web browser to diagnose the problem. I go to https://server1.jaxon.private:8443 and I can see that CalDav is working and I get the proper output. I try https://server1.jaxon.privat:8443/principals/users/username and I get all sorts of great info about the user. Finally I try https://server1.jaxon.private:8443/principals/wikis/test and I get an Internal Server Error. It makes sense that the webpage isn't working since the CalDav server isn't happy.
The site access log has the following entries when I try to visit the calendar:
10.0.1.20 - - [24/May/2010:14:44:48 -0600] "POST //server1.jaxon.private//server1.jaxon.private/RPC2 HTTP/1.0" 404 3754
10.0.1.20 - - [24/May/2010:14:44:48 -0600] "POST //server1.jaxon.private//server1.jaxon.private/RPC2 HTTP/1.0" 404 3754
10.0.1.108 - - [24/May/2010:14:44:47 -0600] "PROPFIND /principals/wikis/test/ HTTP/1.1" 500 201
So there are a couple 404 not founds and a 500 Internal Sever error.
I also get entries in the site error log:
[Mon May 24 14:43:04 2010] [error] [client 10.0.1.108] File does not exist: /Library/WebServer/Documents/collaboration-availability, referer: https://server1.jaxon.private/groups/

[Mon May 24 14:44:48 2010] [error] [client 10.0.1.20] File does not exist: /Library/WebServer/Documents/server1.jaxon.private
Some additional info about our configuration is below
To start here is the output from changeip -checkhostname
Primary address = 10.0.1.20
Current HostName = server1.jaxon.private
DNS HostName = server1.jaxon.private
The names match. There is nothing to change.
dirserv:success = "success"
Under the iCal server section I have the Wiki Server listed as server1.jaxon.private with the SSL checkbox checked. Under Authentication I have type set to Any, Host Name as server1.jaxon.private, Port 8008, SSL set to Use, and SSL Port set to 8443.
Under the Web server section I have 1 site enabled with a Host Name of server1.jaxon.private, IP Address of 10.0.1.20, and Port of 443. The Options, Realms, and Logging tabs all have the default values. Under security I have the SSL certificate configured. Under Aliases and Proxy are just the defaults, and Web Services has Wikis, Calendars, and change their password options.
Any help would be appreciated.

Apple has a command line equivalent to the Server Admin GUI application that conveniently enough is called serveradmin. If you open terminal on your machine and type:
man serveradmin
You'll get the manual page for the serveradmin command. This will run you through all the different arguments you can use with the command and has some examples of the command usage.
If you type:
sudo serveradmin settings calendar
The sudo means super user do. This will temporarily escalate your privileges so you can run the command. It will then ask you for your password to verify your identity. When the command runs you will see all the different settings listed for the calendar service.
To change the value of an item you would do something like the following:
sudo serveradmin settings calendar:somesetting="new value"
