Today I recognited thtat the "GeneralSync Calendar" is missing in Thunderbird. It looks like that the problem appeared after Thunderbird version update to 102.3.1. A manual setup of a "General-Sync Calendar" in Thunderbird did not (as expected) solve the Problem.
Is ther a soluton for the obvious compatibility problem between Thunderbird and GeneralSync ?

Is ther a soluton for the obvious compatibility problem between Thunderbird and GeneralSync ?
There is no obvious compatibility problem, as Thunderbird 102.3.1 works fine for me (with Add-on Version 2.2.0.1).
If both a restart and resetting the connection through the GeneralSync-Add-on's preferences does not solve the issue, it is likely that an error message has been logged to Thunderbird's error console. You can access it by pressing Ctrl+Shift+J in Thunderbird's main window. Which messages do you see there? Do additional messages appear when resetting the connection information in the Add-on's options?
App connection reset did not work. The Error & Log Info From Thunderbirds Main Window will be sent tothe developer by E-Mail .

The Error & Log Info From Thunderbirds
(For other readers: the logs contained an entry pointing towards corruption of Thunderbird's database file: "Can't create calendar [...] NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED [...]")
It seems like Thunderbird's database file is corrupted, preventing it from doing any calendar operations. As that database is only a cache to speed up operations within Thunderbird, it is likely that the corruption did not cause loss of data. That said, I'd recommend to double-check you have recent backups of all important data on your PC, as this could indicate a problem that might affect more relevant data in the close future (such as a broken hard drive or SSD).
The best solution is likely to disable the GeneralSync add-on and exit Thunderbird. Then delete the file generalsync-calendars.sqlite form your profile folder (refer to Thunderbird's documentation if you need help finding it). You can now start Thunderbird again and re-enable the add-on to rebuild the database. You might then need to adjust calendar colors and associated email addresses afterwards, as they are reset to their default values.
Gorgeous - it works, the GeneralSync Calendar is back.
Thanks for the quick solution.
