Thunderbid 102, how to sync with Nextcloud now that tbsync and dav-4-tbsync addons are incompatible?

more options

Today I received from Ubuntu's repo the update to Thunderbird 102.2.2.

I have linked Thunderbird with my Nextcloud instance https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/19/user_manual/pim/sync_thunderbird.html

this is done by using 2 addons: - https://addons.thunderbird.net/en/thunderbird/addon/tbsync/ - https://addons.thunderbird.net/en/thunderbird/addon/dav-4-tbsync/

unfortunately they are both incompatible with Thunderbird 102 therefore automatically disabled.

How can I use Thunberbird 102 with Nexcloud?

Chosen solution

I confirm that Thunderbird 102 has now built-in support for CalDav and CardDav. So no need for the TBSync addon.

Nextcloud's doc for latest release is up to date: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/user_manual/en/groupware/sync_thunderbird.html

Try 'The old method' explained in the docs.nextcloud link above.

It seems that the work previously done by tbsync now is integrated natively in Thunderbird:

Tomorrow I will dig deeper.

Hi,

Thunderbird 102.6 won't add new Nextcloud calendars. It refuses my login.

Using the method described in documentation (New Calendar > On network > enter URL and credentials), Thunderbird returns an authentication failure.

The same issue now happens whether I am using the automated 102 method, the TbSync method, or the "old method", specifying the exact private link to the calendar I am trying to add.
