        @jlnxaer what does the pm2 log show? Are error messages displayed at the log?

        I also had this phenomenon recently, as the calendar did not syncronize automatically. I had an error message in the log. I no longer know the exact wording of the report.
        For me it helped to delete and recreate the files under /home/pi/.vdirsyncer/status and the created * .ics files. after creating the data again with “vdirsyncer sync”, everything now runs automatically as described in the instructions.

          @sdetweil You refer to this, right?

          # ┌───────────── minute (0 - 59)
          # │ ┌───────────── hour (0 - 23)
          # │ │ ┌───────────── day of the month (1 - 31)
          # │ │ │ ┌───────────── month (1 - 12)
          # │ │ │ │ ┌───────────── day of the week (0 - 6) (Sunday to Saturday;

          # │ │ │ │ │
          # * * * * * 
          */5 * * * *
          

          @Tribun The command for the pm2 log is just “pm2 logs” isn’t it? If yes there seems to be everything fine except for a “EADDRINUSE” Error…

          EDIT: I just figured out, that I was missing a command after the Timings… I added that and now it seems to work just fine! Thank you very much guys :D

            (/home/pi/.vdirsyncer/status) is a hidden folder in /home/pi

            you can also find the pm2 log in /home/pi/.pm2/logs this is also hidden.

              Hi,

              I have another hint related to the systemd timer that was originally described in my tutorial.
              It is advised to download the vdirsyncer.service and vdirsyncer.timer directly from the web.

              You need to adjust the path to the executable in the vdirsyncer.service file!
              It defaults to ExecStart=/usr/bin/vdirsyncer sync, which can be wrong.

              But probably it is in ~/.local/bin. (Can be different depending on your installation. Just check location with which vdirsyncer.

              This should make the initially described automatic sync work again.

                @Jaunney I don’t see that this has ben answered yet.

                collections = [“UUID1”, “UUID2”, “UUID3”] is what I use in my config and it works.

                Of course, you need to add a new calender to your calender module to make them visible on the mirror. You need one for every UUID. If you look into your target sync folder on the Pi, there should be 3 .ics files for each UUID. Those are, in fact, 3 separate calendars

                  Hey,
                  im new to this but trying my best.
                  The Sync with calendar works fine, but the sync to the reminders won’t work.
                  I added the “VTODO” but there are do VTODO in the *.ics File.
                  Does i have to do anything else and how the calendar shown the Reminders?

                  Sorry again, im very new and this is my very first project.

                  best regards
                  Niklas

                    Ok … Trying to sync my iCal calendars and I get this every time:

                    error: Unknown error occurred: name 'r130' is not defined
                    error: Use `-vdebug` to see the full traceback.
                    error: 1 out of 1 tasks failed.
                    

                    Any ideas?

                      @Beh thanks for this. everything is working fine for me just a small error I wanted to ask about in my /home/pi/.pm2/logs/MagicMirror-error.log, it complains the following:

                      ERROR! Could not find main module js file for calendars
                      

                      Its not a show stopper but because the calendars folder is created in the modules folder this is why it is asking for a js file.
