I use one local calendar + one remote calendar on Owncloud. Since an
update to version 17 (experimental), Icedove/Iceowl doesn't prompt me
any more for my Owncloud password and says that my calendar isn't
synchronised.
When i click on Synchronise, still no password request but the Owncloud
server get flooded with following requests :

This bug might be related with #669859.
I tag it important because it's saturating the Owncloud server by
creating a plenty PHP sessions by second ... so i'm forced to
desactivate this remote calendar.

Actually this bug only occurs because Owncloud's database was
unavailable (but http server was available).

Therefore this is not anymore a critical bug, however Iceowl could
include a limitation of requests send to http server in this case.

This bug might affect also previous versions of Iceowl (ie Wheezy package).

Hi,

Any steps to reproduce or even a test system? What kind of response did
own cloud sense (that would trigger the same request over and over
again)?
Cheers,
 -- Guido

How to reproduce this bug :
- Configure a Owncloud calendar in Iceowl/Lightning
- Stop mysql database used by Owncloud
- In Iceowl, click on Synchronize (or wait until it's done automatically
every XXX min).
=> check http server (apache2 for me) logs for http flood
