Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Installing radicale. On buster, I found out that this doesn't change in testing
or unstable.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I did not installed libapache2-mod-proxy-uwsgi and I have changed
filesystem_folder in /etc/radicale/config.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Radicale did not work. And it took me days to find out that
libapache2-mod-proxy-uwsgi needed to be installed.
And it didn't work because I have changed the filesystem_folder without
changing /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/radicale.ini.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected that (after necessary configuration) Radicale would work more or
less out of the box.
I have three suggestions:
1) the suggested way is to run Radicale with Apache and UWSGI. Therefore,
libapache2-mod-proxy-uwsgi is necessary and not to be marked as suggested.
2) there must be a hint that changing filesystem_folder in /etc/radicale/config
needs changes in /etc/uwsgi/apps-available/radicale.ini and maybe in the home
directory of user radicale.
3) the description in radicale.README.Debian needs to be extened. I am willing
to contribute an explaination that would have empowered myself to have the
service up and running in a short time. This should be helpful for others, too.
