I guess I may have imported my calender from outlook, it was 6 weeks
ago and I did the transfer from following some web pages - I think
converting to mbox and then importing them if I remember correctly
 - it think it was working ok until a few days ago though I am not sure
when I tried to add the last entry - most seem to be deleted or
cancelled at present couple of days ago. I can still edit existing
entries in the calendar. I have cancelled a couple today. However what
I can't do is to create a new appointment I get the error message in
the title.
As in the original post I have a calendar.ics file and I also have a
contacts.db file in
/home/john/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system. My contacts seem
to be working ok. The only odd thing is they mostly have a Birth date &
Anniversary  date as 1/1/9999 !! As a result if I edit them I get a
message stating 'Birth Date Cannot Be a future date'
Hope this helps
