Hello
I have a fresh install of nextcloud 22.1.0 on a Ubuntu 20.04-1 server.
This nextcloud instance is under nginx and is behind a nginx proxy server
I use https (force redirect http to https) managed by certbot / Let’s encrypt.
I think that the configuration of the 2 nginx is quite good because all is working well with :
web browsers
desktop client under Ubuntu Desktop (sync ok)
Contacts sync with Thunderbird via TbSync plugin
desktop client under Mac OS (Big Sure)
BUT it is impossible to configure the Apple Calendar application. Under Mac OS Big Sure nore Mojave).
The Apple Calendar says : “could not check user or password”, after a few seconds.
In the nginx logs we can always see the same patern :
"PROPFIND /.well-known/caldav HTTP/1.0" 301 169 "-" "Mac+OS+X/10.15.7 (19H1217) accountsd/113"
"PROPFIND / HTTP/1.0" 405 157 "-" "Mac+OS+X/10.15.7 (19H1217) accountsd/113"
"PROPFIND /caldav/v2 HTTP/1.0" 405 0 "-" "Mac+OS+X/10.15.7 (19H1217) accountsd/113"
"PROPFIND /principals/users/USERNAME/ HTTP/1.0" 405 0 "-" "Mac+OS+X/10.15.7 (19H1217) accountsd/113"
"PROPFIND /principals/ HTTP/1.0" 405 0 "-" "Mac+OS+X/10.15.7 (19H1217) accountsd/113"
"PROPFIND /dav/principals/ HTTP/1.0" 405 0 "-" "Mac+OS+X/10.15.7 (19H1217) accountsd/113"
accountsd/113 is the “internet accounts” setup application client.
I searched a long time in this support forum but any advice works. Maybe messages are too older ?
That’s very good that service discovery is working.
The following works for me and friends of mine very reliable:
delete eventuelly existing caldav accounts using your nextcloud-instance (example.xyz) from your clients (Mac/iOS).
to add a caldav-account on your iOS-device:
go to “settings” --> “accounts+passwords” --> “add account” --> “other” --> “add caldav account”
As server enter only the domain name nothing else (in your example this would be “example.xyz”). Also enter username and…
Do anyone knows how to configure correctly Apple Calendar ?
Thank you.
This looks like service discovery is not configured as it should.
/.well-known/caldav
should redirect to (nextcloud in webroot):
/remote.php/dav
or to (Nextcloud in a subdirectory):
/[SUBDIRECTORY]/remote.php/dav
In your case the redirect goes to:
/
After fixing that, I would recommend to first delete the falsely configured account from macOS and then to follow the documentation to add the account to macOS .
My server-log, when adding an account (macOS 11.5.2, Nextcloud 22.1.1 in webroot):
