    Description

      To replicate:

      1. Add $CFG->calendar_adminseesall = true; to config.php
      2. Create a course and add the calendar block
      3. Click the "Import or export calendars" link on the block
      4. Press the "Import calendar" button
      5. Set "Import from"  to "Calendar file (.ics)
      6. Upload an ics file (there's one attached to this issue that you can use)
      7. Set "Type of event" to "Course"
      8. Press "Import calendar"

      I guess the issue is that the user is expected to select a course when using the "Course" event type, but the UI doesn't indicate that field is required, nor does it appear to do any validation upon submission.
