About

The evolution webdav contacts plugin allows storing small to medium sized addressbooks on a webdav server. It performs ok for several hundred addresses. So this is an easy way to share addresses with multiple clients.

Contacts are stored on the server as 1 .vcf file per contact. This allows easy backup and management on the server side. (Similar to the advantages of maildir over mbox)

Troubleshooting

This is how to get more detailed information on what is going wrong (since the plugin interfaces to report errors are quiet limited unfortunately):

 killall evolution-data-server-2.24

 /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-data-server-2.24
