Calendar events showing on wrong day.

Coolie1101

Hey @sdetweil, I am experiencing the same issue and made the changes as you motioned, but now I am getting an error for the calendar module, and the module is not loaded, if I revert the module loads and work as expected, any ideas?

Config Change

} else { 
								// if the timezones are the same, correct date if needed
//								if (event.start.tz === moment.tz.guess()) {
									// if the date hour is less than the offset
									if (24 - dh < Math.abs(dateoffset / 60)) {
										// apply the correction to the date/time back to right day
										date = new Date(date.getTime() + Math.abs(24 * 60) * 60000);
										// the duration was calculated way back at the top before we could correct the start time..
										// fix it for this event entry
										//duration = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
										Log.debug("new recurring date2 is " + date);
									}
//								}
							}
						} else {
							// not full day, but luxon can still screw up the date on the rule processing
							// we need to correct the date to get back to the right event for
							if (dateoffset < 0) {
								// if the date hour is less than the offset
								if (dh < Math.abs(dateoffset / 60)) {
									// Reduce the time by the offset:
									// Apply the correction to the date/time to get it UTC relative
									date = new Date(date.getTime() - Math.abs(nowOffset) * 60000);
									// the duration was calculated way back at the top before we could correct the start time..
									// fix it for this event entry
									//duration = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
									Log.debug("new recurring date1 is " + date);
								}
							} else {
								// if the timezones are the same, correct date if needed
//								if (event.start.tz === moment.tz.guess()) {
									// if the date hour is less than the offset
									if (24 - dh < Math.abs(dateoffset / 60)) {
										// apply the correction to the date/time back to right day

you don’t change config, you are changing the module source code, right?

npm start >somefile.txt

then ctrl-c after MM shows cal info (if any, or error)

then examine somefile.txt

I can share that calendar with you if it makes it easier for you to test.

no, i just create an ics file… easy cut/paste

@sdetweil said in Calendar events showing on wrong day.:

npm start >somefile.txt

What is this suppose to do?, seems something is missing from the command.

sdetweil

@coolie1101 it directs the output of the command (npm start) to a file (somefile.txt)

this is normal file output redirection, same as on windows

the normal MM startup output looks like this

@coolie1101 after copying your new cal entry to ics, and running… it looks good to me…

this ics with the other persons info in too
