Summary: #2171 - SYNCING from EGW to Outlook (recover sync) -> Field problems
ok, here i add the whole logs from funambol, EGW server logs, and pictures of the items from calendar and contact

in contact there is 1 item
in calendar there are 2 items

i made pictures of the items in EGW, and - after sync - also in Outlook

see attached:

what i see:

.) a lot of fileds are complete different and some fields will be deleted or are empty
.) special chars (like quote, carr. return in note of a appointment are strange after syncing
.) birthday apointments are not any more “full day appointment”

(the test are done with apache2, postgresql8, EGW trunk +branch syncml-1.2 version 27451,funambol 8.03, outlook 2007)

i will add logs and pictures later

Here is what I can see from the logs:

  1. The contact vCard entry is RFC conform but Funambol does not like it.
    ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE in not understood properly, although it is used for the other direction (Funambol -> eGW). There is no way to fix this on eGW side. You have to complain at Funambol.
    The field matching for this client is now improved in the trunk version.

  2. The calendar entry is exchanged in SIF format. eGW should import the event “whole day”.
    I improved the import part within the trunk version.
