by I was trying to create a recurring event using WebDAV. I used the PROPPATCH
to create the event and then did a SEARCH to get Exchange to Expand the
occurrences so that I can then modify one occurrence.
This worked under Windows but not AIX. It appeared that the event did not
get created correctly when running from AIX even though I was using the same
XML.
The problem was that in AIX, the line breaks are only linefeeds(LF) so the
multiline values in the xml, such as the timezone information, contained LFs
instead of CRLFs.
Solution: I explicitly converted all LFs to CRLFs in the xml property values
before sending it to Exchange. Now this works from both Windows and AIX.
