@avano cool, thx

https://github.com/MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror/issues/3329

you DID get events once…

[avano]

@sdetweil I replaced lines 58 to 84, but I can’t see any difference in the logs:

@avano said in Calendar not loading after update to 2.26:

Calendar-Fetcher: Broadcasting 241 events

well, it sent 241 entries to be put on the calendar

update is 3600 000 milliseconds , or 1 hour

Indeed, it says 241 events were found, but I meant that despite that the mirror shows “Loading…” in the calendar module.

fun times…

can you open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i on the MM screen (on pi or remote browser if you have that configured)

select the console tab, and put calendar in the filter field to see if there are any errors shown on the browser side

[avano]

@sdetweil I’ll give this a try in the morning, but thanks a lot for the help!

[avano]

@sdetweil, I checked the browser log. At first, I saw errors about not finding the custom.css.

So I created one from the sample css file. Now I only see the remaining issue.

Any idea? Should I consider a fresh install instead?

[sdetweil]

@avano its a noise error… if the file doesn’t exist, then its an error when trying to load it, its hard coded in the MM shell web page…

just create it and the error will go away

touch ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css

if u had used my script to install, I would have done that for you

also many people don’t know how to create a file, …

so I tell them to add styles there and the file is missing and they don’t know what to do

[sdetweil]

@avano ok, no crashes in the browser side…

[sdetweil]

@avano can u show the cal config, just xxx out the url

[avano]

@sdetweil, do you mean from the config.js? If so, it is in the first post of this thread.

[sdetweil]

@avano said in Calendar not loading after update to 2.26:

                            limitDays: 30,
                            maximumEntries: 15,
                            wrapEvents: true,
                            hidePrivate: true

can u comment these out , add // in front

[sdetweil]

@avano alomao try this

cd ~/MagicMirror
npm install electron@28.1.1

[avano]

@sdetweil I tried both the above suggestions, but no change.

However, I enabled the DEBUG mode and saw that some events in my calendar took a lot longer to be processed. These events are open-ended events in my Google calendar. They look like the below extract. So I removed them temporarily.

I no longer get the Warning: vkCreateInstance: Found no drivers!

The calendar now loads.
But I’ll try to re-create them and see if they are formatted the same way.

@avano cool… any chance u can find the VEVENT in the downloaded ICS file

curl -sL cal_url >someicsfile.txt

my fix should remove all those null entries…

and the vulcan thing is a bug in electron putting out a spurious message

can u edit

~/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar/calendarfetcherutils.js

and look at line 293

					let dates = rule.between(pastLocal, futureLocal, true, limitFunction);
					Log.debug(`Title: ${event.summary}, with dates: ${JSON.stringify(dates)}`);
					dates = dates.filter((d) => {   // my fix starts here    
						if (JSON.stringify(d) === "null") return false;
						else return true;
					});

@sdetweil I put back an open-ended event into my calendar, here is the VEVENT: (the calendar no longer loads, and the warning is back.)

I looked into ~/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar/calendarfetcherutils.js line 293, it looks like I have your fix already:

Log.debug(`Search for recurring events between: ${pastLocal} and ${futureLocal}`);
let dates = rule.between(pastLocal, futureLocal, true, limitFunction);
Log.debug(`Title: ${event.summary}, with dates: ${JSON.stringify(dates)}`);
dates = dates.filter((d) => {
	if (JSON.stringify(d) === "null") return false;
	else return true;
});

[avano]

Apologies, I must have refreshed something since my last post, because the calendar now loads including my open-ended event.
I updated my config.js back to it’s initial state (i.e. uncommenting all our tests, removed DEBUG mode), and I started the app with PM2 instead of “npm start”, but I can’t think of any other change I made.

Do you want me to run some more tests to try and identify the actual issue?
In any case, thanks for all your help.
