Calendar randomly stops updating itself

@outlying can u tell us about your environment?
I think if there is a fetch error, it’s not recoverable…

u might be able to see this in the startup console if u change the config.js logLevel like this

logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR", "DEBUG"],

and start mm with

npm start > somefile.txt

(so u need to stop mm if using pm2 )

@sdetweil Yeah, I see… When I setup calendar quite some time ago I remember that I had some trouble, too.
What I did -I cant’t remember why because it is undocumented- was to change
from

timeFormat: "absolute",

to

timeFormat: "HH:mm",

That is a shot in the dark, but might help, too.

Sure I will respond with the results in a couple of days but I moved to another apartment and my mirror is not yet running (I hoped it will not take that long).

But the problem with logs is, that it might take a couple of days, usually, after the restart, it works fine for a week or two, maybe more, and suddenly stops.

@outlying ok, that sounds like a networking problem, causing an error and never recovering

I have noticed the same thing, or rather my Ma has on the one I made for her. Some times the news won’t update until it power cycles again. If nothing bad happens to the breaker sometimes will display same news from a month ago.
