Provider 0.5.1 Requires additional items

[steveedmonds]

I have installed provider in Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 with Lightning
0.9-5.1. on SUSE 11.0 x64. It installs ok but doesn't show the Gmail
option. In the ad-ons it has a message "Requires Additional Items".

It installs and runs ok in Sunbird.

I have tried the ICal setup in Lightning which sort of works but
hangs. As I can't compare ICal functionality against Provider I
haven't posted in the ICal discussion.

I have calendar.debug.log true but get no logging for Provider
"Requires Additional Items", is there logging somewhere else?

Hello. Please try setting extensions.logging.enabled in the advanced
config editor.

Also, please try reinstalling lightning from scratch. There were some
problems with missing files in case you have been using lightning for
a few versions and have always been updating via automatic update.

Hi. Set extensions.logging.enabled true and nothing was logged on
installing Provider. It still has same message "Requires Additional
Items".
I have reinstalled Lightning from scratch but that didn't help. I am
not using the Lightning from the mozilla add-ons site as that failed
to install on x86_64 Thunderbird (said it wasn't compatible), rather I
am using a Lightning package (0.9-5.1) from the OpenSuse site.

Heya,

Its possible that suse changed some ids which causes such errors.
Please use the stock lightning from ftp.mozilla.org . We have a
contrib 64 bit release.

I had the same experience using the Lightning from the Ubuntu
repositories. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the
Mozilla.org version, and then installed the provider again, and it is
happy :)
