Expand CalDAVRemoveEmptyValue.php to fix additional 'Unsupported VALUE parameter for DTEND property' errors that cause sync issues

[maertsen]

I just squashed a long existing type of error message in my logs, of the form 'Unsupported VALUE parameter for DTEND property'. I tracked this down to incorrect VCARD data created while running Owncloud Calendar 0.8.1.

The following patch to apps/dav/lib/Migration/CalDAVRemoveEmptyValue.php combined with a call to occ maintenance:repair fixes the incorrect VCARD data. This fixed all kinds of sync issues with shared calendars on my installation. Please consider integrating similar logic for other users benefit.

<               $pattern = 'DTEND;VALUE=;';
---
>               $pattern = ';VALUE=:';
69c69
<                       $data = preg_replace('/' . $pattern . '/', 'DTEND;', $calObject['calendardata']);
---
>                       $data = preg_replace('/' . $pattern . '/', ':', $calObject['calendardata']);

This is an example of the invalid VCARD data (newlines added for legibility):

@maertsen Can you please send a pull-request for your proposed change? Thx!

Not a bug, since Nextcloud is rightfully complaining about broken calendar-data.

[skjnldsv]

Sorry, thanks :)
