Upon trying to log in, I am met with the error message, “Configuration detection - Couldn’t find CalDAV or CardDav service.” It asks if I want to look at logs or click out via, “OK.”
Expected result…
Login to complete and either sync calendar and contacts or present the next step necessary to select them. I can’t tell, extactly, because the error appeared.
This is currently a show-stopper. Thank you very much for reviewing and recommending steps to resolve it.
EDIT:
I just tested it with test account on my phone and it worked without an issue. I’m also syncing my contacts, tasks, and calendar on my promary account on regular basis. Maybe providing a screenshot would give a hint into what is wrong.
Hi, thank you. Yes, that is the very tutorial that was used. A screen shot would likely not be useful as that very error would be front, center and blocking the login boxes, behind. 2FA has not yet been set up. I’m holding off until being able to sync is working.
As far as I know DAVdroid does not produce popups with nextcloud error screens. Can you, start DAVdroid manually (not via nextcloud app) and re-do it?
Also screenshots along the way would help. From our side I can say it all works as expected so it must be some misconfiguration on your end.
Does logging in via browser work?
Logging is in the app. It’s very very long. I’m providing the tail…

I meant if you can login to cloud with a browser like firefox or something, just to check and verify it works.
Also maybe using lower case letters in your username will help.
Could be Please try to login from normal webbrowser on desktop or mobile and go to Calendar or Contacts app, you should certainly see your calendar. Then you could try again to login via DavDroid.
PS- Just as an observation, when I created the password… I click ‘Done’ and it disappears. It’s doesn’t end up on anything I can see. I enter the app name, click 'Create…", I copy the password that appears, click ‘Done’ and it disappears. I have OBS, so I can record it happening. Oh, I also use Chromium (not that it means much).
So. I could reproduce your issue. It apears to happen when you type the app password wrong. I checked it few times and the moment I would change the password for the app (misstype it) it would produce 405 “Method not allowed” error. It very missleading as it should say wrong password, but I guess because of 2FA the response from nextcloud is not just simple 403.
As for your question regarding the password. Yes as stated when creating password it will only apear once. The moment you hit “Done” it will be listed in your devices list above. There you can revoke access to it.
So make sure you type the app password correctly, and maybe (if you havent yet) logout and in after enabling 2FA.
I have my own NextCloud Instance and changed routers, yesterday. While I work on that, I figured I’d sync up to Disroot in the meantime. I ran into the same problem. I also disables 2FA just in case for re-enabling, after. I get that same ‘unable to locate’ error.
Would this be related to the recent issues the NextCloud instance recently had?
Please try to login from normal webbrowser on desktop or mobile and go to Calendar or Contacts app, you should certainly see your calendar. Then you could try again to login via DavDroid.
