oxtender 1.7.x.x is unusabable with thunderbird 3.1 after installation (settings)

[klaasklever]

-- sorry, something's wrong with the board here, my old posting disappeared after editing... so i have to repost it here --

hello,

because the german thread shows no solution, i will translate the problem - it's an urgent one.

the problem: oxtender 1.7.5.4 and earlier versions (1.7.x.x) doesn't work with tunderbird 3.1.x.. after the installation of oxtender and tb-restart the configuration dialog of oxtender appears and you can fill in your credentials, but you can't close it by ok, only by the x in the box.

no connections comes up, status check freezes and there are some error messages. reportetd is for example in the german thread:

Fehler: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [mozIStorageConnection.createStatement]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://oxcalendar-provider/content/DatabaseManager.js :: getOXCalendarPref :: line 227" data: no]

my oxtender says "wrong server", although the credentials are right. i use those: http://oxportal.de/ox/demo.html (worked fine some weeks ago with older tb and oxtender-versions).

problem occurs under a fresh windows 7, fresh thunderbird 3.1 with all updates (no old data, no imports or something like that) and fresh oxtender.

i want to sign up by an ox6-provider and will get in problems, if oxtender doesn't work (the contract binds me for 6 month minimum from the signup on).

i really appreciate the work of those, who make the oxtender, but at the moment i couldn't estimate how reliable it is or how fast the developers could/will react in future problems (e.g. by new versions of thunderbird).

thx for any help,

karsten

perhaps this is a hint - comes, when thunderbird starts and trys to load the ox-calendar, which is deactiveted after thte start.

Hi,

ok, this could really be a problem. Because if your OXtender doesn't get a correct server type. The OXtender cannot use the correct handler for the defined calendar.

Regarding your test with http://oxportal.de, you use the wrong url here.

The url http://oxportal.de/ox/demo.html is only a webpage without any ox interfaces. But you could use this url for Thunderbird:

https://ssl.sachsendv.de

Best regards,
Sebastian

thx. you are right. with my personal account i have to do so, too. it's an url without subdirectories in both cases. perhaps this hints will help someone.
