Description of problem: When trying to add a WebDAV address book (hosted on a Zimbra server), Evolution complains that: This query did not complete successfully. PROPFIND on webdav failed with HTTP status 405 The address book is still listed by is not working - it does not show any entries and I can't create new entries in it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.32.2-1.fc14.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have an address book available on a Zimbra server (tests accounts are available from my server if you need them). 2. Try to add a WebDAV address book to Evolution using the URL http://server-adderss/dav/user@domain/Contacts/ Actual results: Evolution will not list contacts and complains about HTTP status code 405 (invalid method) Expected results: The contacts from the server's address book should be listed Additional info: I've tried to reproduce the HTTP request that (I believe) Evolution is trying to make using curl -u 'user@domain:password' -X 'PROPFIND' 'http://server-address/dav/user@domain/Contacts/' And I get a 207 response, so I believe that should work. I'm not sure what query evolution is running, but its obviously not this URL. I've also have set up the same address book in Fedora 15 and Ubuntu 10.10 and they both work fine.
Thanks for a bug report. Does it claim the same error when you try with https:// instead of http://? There is an upstream bug [1], which claims that the WebDAV address book was using only https, and it was fixed later on. The other difference between 2.32.2 and 3.0.0 is from an upstream bug [2], but you are not using ports in your server address probably, so I think it's closer to [1].

Unfortunately, my Zimbra server is not configured to work in HTTPS, so I can't test it at this point.
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
