Hi,



I’m not sure if I get you right, but for adding a new user to DAViCal (after logging in as admin) you have to click on User functions/Create Principal. I’m not 100% sure about the actual English menu item text, because my installation is running in German, but it should be close enough to find it.



After having done so you can access the calendar/contacts for this user by using a CalDAV/CardDAV client.





Regards,

Ingo.

Betreff: [Davical-general] creating a user



hi,

i know this sounds stupid, but i got lost creating a user...
i can log in to the web interface, but besides listing a lof of things i cant do anything.

connecting to a "calendar" url (im pretty new to this)
http://localhost/davical/caldav.php/julius/testcalendar/

gives me a user/password prompt.
but how do you actually create a user?
ive been following:
http://wiki.davical.org/index.php/Debian

but it leaves one kinda stranded...
looking at client configurations doesnt help either

my client software: python caldav https://pypi.python.org/pypi/caldav/0.4.0 says:

python caldav-test.py

how do you get a successfull connection?

You should visit your http://localhost/davical/ and access with admin
account. There you will find administration website to create and modify
principals/users.

Later, you will be able to access your calendar(s) with a CalDAV client
software.

Hi Peter,

Did you try to connect to http://localhost/davical with a web browser?
You should then logon with admin account and create a principal.
Then, you can access to this new principal with a calendaring software
(Thunderbird + Lightning for example, but python caldav sounds good).

Cyril.
