Assassins

@sdetweil Yes i now, but i have do all the step, and this error come up

sdetweil

@assassins but u said the calendar folder was created. and its looking for the js file… so i think you didnt use the right folder

Assassins

@sdetweil The step to this synsc iCloud calendar is
mkdir /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/calendars

sdetweil

@assassins is there supposed to be a script added to that folder?

Assassins

@sdetweil No, only the .ics to you Icloud Calendar

Went through all the steps in the tutorial (including the modification to set the .service file to point to where vdirsyncer really lives [Thanks @Beh !]). Everything works, except that my .ics files are empty (0 length). I saw a reference to this early in the forum comments, but the poster said they eventually started working with no reason for the change. Anyone have any ideas?

@ggfuzzy Where is that file? I’m too much of a noob to find it :D

Seems like I got to work again.

First of all, I installed vdirsyncer via
“sudo apt-get install vdirsyncer”,
and not using pip.

Second the command to start the systemd timer
systemctl --user enable vdirsyncer.timer
did not work at all. When typing
systemctl --user status vdirsyncer.timer
It always said the timer was dead. So I started it with its start command:
systemctl --user start vdirsyncer.timer

Third, I made the modification to vdirsyncer.service as suggested by @Beh
Run

which vdirsyncer

And remember the path. After, edit the vdirsyncer.service file

sudo nano /etc/systemd/user/vdirsyncer.service

Correct the right path after “ExecStart”. My .service file looks like this:

[Unit]
Description=Synchronize calendars and contacts
Documentation=https://vdirsyncer.readthedocs.org/

[Service]
ExecStart=/home/pi/.local/bin/vdirsyncer sync
RuntimeMaxSec=3m
Restart=on-failure
