CardDAV-Server XML-Response is malformed. Synchronization aborted! about roundcube-carddav HOT 6 OPEN

Hi,
Same problem on Roundcube 8.1 with Davical server v9.9.3 on Debian 6.
I modify the cardav_adressbook.php to have some more information (line 481)

catch (Exception $e)
{
self::write_log('CardDAV-Server XML-Response is malformed. Synchronization aborted!');
++ self::write_log($elements);
++ self::write_log($e);
return false;
}

Here the result :

[02-Sep-2012 01:53:59 +0200]: v0.5.1 | carddav_server_id: 1 | Starting CardDAV-Addressbook synchronization

I will investigate for more informations

I sync I have found the problem.
In carddav_backend.php file. the funtion get doesn’t initialise the XML request send to the server for the PROPFIND.

You can add the replace the following lines :

211,212c211,224
<   {
<       $response = $this->query($this->url, 'PROPFIND');
---
>     {
>         $xml = new XMLWriter();
>         $xml->openMemory();
>         $xml->setIndent(4);
>         $xml->startDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
>             $xml->startElement('D:propfind');
>                 $xml->writeAttribute('xmlns:D', 'DAV:');
>                 $xml->startElement('D:prop');
>                         $xml->writeElement('D:resourcetype');
>                 $xml->endElement();
>             $xml->endElement();
>         $xml->endDocument();
> 
>       $response = $this->query($this->url, 'PROPFIND', $xml->outputMemory());

It's the same problem/solution as issue #29
#29

from roundcube-carddav.

Have anyone got this plugin working on Mountain Lion? I've tried the fixes in #29 and #36 (and above); however, I still have problems. I still receive the "ardDAV-Server XML-Response is malformed. Synchronization aborted!" error. Thanks so much!

I've got the same issue when I try to connect against owncloud 6.

I've already modified the carddav_backend.php like described above but the problem is the same.

Exists a fix for this?
