Trubles in setting up CardDAV synchronization
-
I tried to follow instructions on docs.ubports.com to set up CardDAV synchronization on my Pixel3A with UT-20.04, but I got some troubles, the most blocking being that the command crontab is not available!
Than I ave also some error from syncevolution, which I can address, one at a time. Bu how can I schedule the synchronisation?

One of my difficoulties is to distinguish parameters that are names of my choice, from parameters that identifies provider specifications.
Of course CONTACTS_URL, USERNAME and PASSWORD are related to provider, but what about all other variables?

@hilbert a little late to the party, but you are right the other variables should not impact your sync. I think the "config name" can be important, if you used special characters it could be problematic, but other than that they all are phone related.If you still have problems with carddav sync, i wrote a script which setup these things with automated sync (systemd instead of cron), take a look here : https://forums.ubports.com/topic/10127/contacts-carddav-automatic-setup-and-sync-through-this-script
(hoping you already solved this issue
