I use an ubuntu-homeserver (24.04) with an carddav-docker-container "Baikal". Connecting contactbridge from my UbuntuTouch-phone with it works fine, but syncing results in the following picture. Is there any solution available?

I think, the author has no interest to invest time for this app, 😔

Hey, that's untrue, and not nice to say in a public issue board. As you know, the project is offered free of charge, open for contributions. I only have limited amount of time to work for free, which was not the case in the recent months.

Let's focus the issue board on discussing issues please.

Hey, I added an option in the app to copy the logs in this screen. Mind updating, syncing, copying logs and sharing them here so I can debug? It's possible that its a upstream issue, reading logs should help defining that

Thank you, I will do that but the app-update isn't available in the open store until now.

We need to wait for UT Openstore steam to publish it. Its a manual process

Looks like a upstream (syncevolution, keyring) error. A few follow up questions:

Do you use your device without a password?
In your phone, if you run ps aux | grep gnome-keyring-daemon whats the result?
Also run this journalctl -b /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon

It looks like the keyring is not initialized in your device, so syncevolution cannot store the password to use it to synchronize later

HI, you're right - I use my phone without a password because it's only at my home.
The first command results with:

phablet 2827 0.0 0.1 436888 5188 ? SLsl Mär23 0:01 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --foreground --components=pkcs11,secrets --control-directory=/run/user/32011/keyring
phablet 72271 0.0 0.0 54384 2000 pts/0 S+ 09:50 0:00 grep --color=auto gnome-keyring-daemon

The result of the second command I send it with this comment as a txt-file.

That should be it. Problem is that I'm not sure if the OS provides a reliable way for an app to know if the keyring is properly setup, so we can add a fallback to use insecure password handling in those cases. While this is not sorted out, pretty sure if you setup a lock screen the app should work

You're absolutely right!!!
I've made your recommended solution and now your app runs without any problems. All my contacts are now available on my phone.
Many thanks for spending your time und you're good work, for the other apps on Ubuntu Touch, too.

Hello,
I already have a lockscreen with a password set up. :(
Is there any way I can help with troubleshooting?
Thanks

@berkersal your error might be different. Follow the instructions in this thread to copy the logs and paste it here so I can take a look

I have just updated the app to retrieve the logs.
Opened the app, clicked on "Sync Servers" and it just worked 😅.
Sorry to bother, amazing apps, thanks for all 👍🏼
