LO92080: UNEXPECTED ACCEPT ACTION FROM IOS NATIVE CLIENT WHEN ADDING COMMENTS TO MEETING INVITE

IBM Traveler 9.0.1.18 for Windows
IBM Traveler 9.0.1.18 for Linux
IBM Traveler 9.0.1.18 for IBMi

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• iOS native client (iOS 10.x)
  Device user opens a meeting invitation and adds comments to the
  comments to organizer field but never selects an action (accept,
  etc). User just hits done to close the invitation dialog. This
  may result in the meeting getting accepted even though the user
  never selected an action to take.
  

Local fix

• Avoid adding comments via native client if user is not going to
  actually take action on invite at that time.
  In Traveler 9.0.1.18 and later release, you
  can use this notes.ini parameter.
  NTS_CALENDAR_IGNORE_NEEDSACTION_ACTION=true
  

Problem summary

• Adding comments on mobile device to invitation not yet accepted
  may cause to be accpeted on the server.
  

Problem conclusion

• The IBM Traveler server has been updated to handle this
  scenario.
  

Temporary fix

• This fix is included in IBM Traveler 9.0.1.18 and later release.
