      @sdetweil Any idea why I’m getting an error when running discover and saying yes to sync?

      error: Unknown error occurred: [Errno 13] Permission denied: ‘/home/pi’
      error: Use -vdebug to see the full traceback.

              @anhanyoung how to create array

               name_of_field: [],
              

              you are not just creating an array. you are creating a field that IS an array

                  @anhanyoung91 Hi, I just followed the instructions on the first page.
                  I did have an issue at one point and it was just because I didn’t follow the instructions exactly as written.
                  If your getting an error Permission denied: /home/pi to me that sounds like you may not have the path to the vdirsyncer status folder set right. It appears it is trying to write to the /home/pi folder rather than ~/.vdirsyncer/status/

                  Id go through the steps again and make sure you don’t skip anything.

                  As for the array issue in the vdirsyncer config I have 2 calendars I sync and the line looks something like this
                  where home is my main calendar and the random number string is my birthdays calendar.

                  collections = ["home","57B7E3E-AB79-4DC3-9CF1-A63EB181DB"]
                  

                  hope that helps

                      @Saabman I’ve literally re-done the steps over and over and I keep getting the permissions error. Have any other ideas what might be causing this or how to fix it? Thanks in advance
