Which documentation? Radicale (in mga) is supposed to be run as system service.
Also, radicale is currently pretty outdated. I'll look if I've time/motivation to update it if Cauldron reopens someday.
If you want to run radicale as a normal user, you'll have to copy files from /etc/radicale/ to ~/.config/radicale/ and edit paths etc such way you can run radicale as a normal user.
Closing as INVALID.

Hi Jani, The only documentation I found is: http://radicale.org/user_documentation/#idstarting-the-server which doesn't refer to service. Ok, I tried systemctl start radicale, but it doesn't seem to be active. What is to check? Papoteur
Resolution: INVALID => FIXED
Use your favorite web browser and browse to address http://localhost:5232/ to see if it's working.
Resolution: FIXED => INVALID
After uninstalling and reinstalling, I get: Radicale works! Thanks Where can a Mageia user find the information that radicale is configured as service? The README sends to the radicale.org documentation.
