[Mobilepartners] SyncML/Tech Time weirdness

Thu Apr 5 12:58:56 EDT 2007

Hi Chris.. My version is 2.5.0.46.

I  did a reload device, sync'd and it worked.  I added an entry from my
palm,  normal sync'd, and it worked.  I deleted an entry from my desktop,
normal sync'd, and it worked.

Maybe the weirdness is in remission..:o)

Hi Joni,

I'm seeing very similar behavior this morning. My first attempts at a sync
started well and then ended with a 503 error code. I switched to an "update
device" and the sync completed normally. My next "normal" sync attempted
with an error 500. All subsequent syncs, regardless of which mode is
selected, end in 503 error codes.

I'm using a Motorola Q running SyncML 2.5.0.69.

Hi Jon.Strange.I went through on my palm and deleted all the duplicate
entries, and then attempted a sync, and got the error code 403, then 503,
then changed to update device and reload device again and got 503.

Then, deleted items on my desktop, changed to slow, and got 503 again.

BTW, I don't use the oracle connector.

Is there something up with the calendar server?  I think my most confusing
question is how could an institute holiday note that is set by the calendar
administrator get duplicated on my desktop calendar as an all day meeting
that I proposed?   That's the weirdest..

I haven't tried to cable hot sync my palm since the calendar update, but
today I tried to hotsync (to backup my contacts) and I get no connectitivity
between my cradle and my computer..ah, yet another  mystery.:o)

Hi Joni,

I have been seeing the Daily Notes and Daily Events and MIT Holidays showing
up as all day meetings on my Windows Mobile 5 device with SyncML and
reported it to Andrew as a low priority last week.  I also noted an error
503 one morning in the past few days, but couldn't reproduce it on the
second attempt so moved on and did not report that.

I do not have any duplicates of the Daily Notes or Daily Events on my
Windows Mobile calendar, but do end up sometimes with duplicates of the
mysterious day long meetings of the same name.

Jon

Andrew:

I went to sync my calendar today (knowing that I had added a lot of entries
in my desktop calendar) and when I did, I noticed that all the 'notes' I had
on my calendar got duplicated on my palm.  So I did another sync, and I got
error code 403.  I did another sync and got error code 503 (twice); I did an
update device and a reload device, and both times got error code 503.  

Then, I let it rest for about 10 minutes.

I did another 'normal' sync, and it appeared to sync with no errors, but
now, on my desktop calendar, all the 'notes' I had (which were sent to me as
invitations from others) AND the Institute holiday notes have been
duplicated as 'all day meetings' on my calendar, and it looks like I'm the
'proposed by' person.

Anybody else seen this?  I'm all for trying anything.

Joni
