    Complete Noob here. I am not getting my calendar to work in MM. I have tried many different ways but still no success. The holiday calendar works fine. Is there something not working with Google Calendar?

    calendar error 404: Not Found is what I’m getting when I control +Q out of MM

      @vanced54 said in Google Calendar not updating:

      calendar error 404: Not Found

      that means the URL you provided is not working (not found)

      put the url in the browser on the pi, it must download an ics file… if not fix til it does
      then add THAT url to MM calendar config

          So I have gotten the 404 error to clear but there are no events coming in.

          {
          module: “calendar”,
          header: “Dustin’s Calendar”,
          position: “top_left”,
          config: {
          calendars: [
          {
          symbol: “calendar-check-o”,
          url: “https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/USERNAME%40gmail.com/private-CODE/basic.ics” }
          ]
          }
          },

          Here is the code. I did change my user name to USERNAME and the private code to CODE

                @vanced54 do you see in the terminal window, or pm2 logs

                 Create new calendar fetcher for url: http://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics - Interval: 300000
                
                

                but with your url?

                do you see any errors?

                    @vanced54 ok, there is a debug tool in the /modules/default/calendar folder

                    edit the debug.js and put your url in the place of the one there

                    and then do

                    node debug.js

                    it should display events read from the calendar

                      @sdetweil where do I do the node debug.js?

                      I tried it but doesn’t seem to worka22cc263-c285-48e6-bf1c-420fccb1e735-image.png

                      I did edit the debug.js file with the same link.
