ICS files cannot be opened on iOS

[amandasystems]

iOS will save the ICS calendar event as a text file (and, in fact, add .txt to the file name). I tried to figure out which MIME type it is served as, but it seems to be served by some sort of JavaScript action.

I plan on looking into addressing this issue myself unless it's a WONTFIX for some reason.

Hm, when I look at what it's served as in the Network inspector, I see: content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8.

Maybe this is a server thing? Ok, I think I know what the problem is!

If you don't work this out, let me know what I can do to help! I don't have an iOS device, but can probably fix something!

Ok, it's too much work to set up Docker to test this; I got complaints from the mail infrastructure and whatnot.

I'm almost certain the fix is: in src/routes/frontend, line 552, add the following line: res.set("Content-Type", "text/calendar");. If I'm not mistaken, the ICS file is served as a HTML file otherwise.

Great catch, thank you so much - this has been fixed!

Thanks! Unfortunately this does not fix the issue on iOS, but I'm now more or less completely convinced that's Safari's fault.
