LO90472: UNABLE TO OPEN ICS FILE IN NOTES DUE TO PARSING ERROR

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• SPR # JKEY8SKMXW resolved issues with parsing of ics file in
  earlier releases
  of IBM Notes .
  
  However , the current release of 9.0.1 and Fix Pack cannot open
  ics files
  supplied by the Customer .
  The following IBM Notes dialog arises when you try to open
  
  
  The file can be imported using the File -> Import option .
  
  The iCalendar contains a number of Microsoft's own parameters
  such as
  X-MICROSOFT-CDO-BUSYSTATUS:OOF and these come after the
  END:VEVENT parameter .
  If the END:VEVENT parameter is placed after the Microsoft
  parameters as the
  second last (see Other Info) , then it works ok .
  

Local fix

• Use File -> Import
  OR
  Edit the ics file and place the END:VEVENT parameter before
  END:VCALENDAR
