Calendar events showing on wrong day.
-
@sdetweil okay, I went through and changed my original calendar to make sure all events were in the correct time zone, but I was able to make a test event that was the same as the example. If I am understanding correctly, you want me to add // immediately in front of the “if (event.start…” as well as the second set of brackets at the end, two lines down from the “Log.debug…” line, around about lines 348 and 376?
I did try this, both with the system time zone in Edmonton, and Vancouver. Both resulted in the event still displaying on the 22nd.
I may have misunderstood what you were asking though as I am very new to this, and have no previous experience with javascript, aside from what I have been able to learn in the last few weeks setting this up.One other aside, I have also noticed that all day events are being displayed correctly ahead of time, as well as day of- however the day after the event is scheduled it will remain, and display as an event scheduled that day. (example event will show in 2 days, 2 days ahead of time, ends in x hours on day of, but also shows ends in x hours 1 day after event was scheduled). Is this related to the same type of timezone issues as the original?

@flyedge there are two instances of the if( and } that need to be commented out (//) right?
total of 4 lines (2 sets of 2)
1st one is for all day events
2nd one is for NOT full day events (which is what your event is , as it has time as well) -
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 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); } // } } } startDate = moment(date); -

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

@sdetweil Yes, \modules\default\calendar\calendarutils.js
I forgot to post the event in my previous post, see below.

@coolie1101 do you have the current version of the vevent? as that one expired in 2019, and has no repeating rule
but when I adjusted to this year and nov 21

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.
-
@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…
(with the edited calendarutils.js) (I am central US time)this ics with the other persons info in too
-
@sdetweil Maybe I’m executing it in the wrong order, do i need to “pm2 start mm” and then do “npm start >somefile.txt”? eitherway, there isn’t error log entries for calendar.

@coolie1101 you cant run with pm2 AND with npm start

pm2 stop allTHEN (in the MagicMirror folder)
npm start -

npm startGot it, I edited the “calendarutils.js” file again and restarted, no error or calendar entries in log, but the display is the same.

@coolie1101 weird
edit config.js and change
logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR"]to
thislogLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN","ERROR","DEBUG"]and run again, then u will see the calendar processing
-
@coolie1101 and a reminder, there are TWO sections of code u have to comment out
two areas of two lines each
-
@sdetweil Yes.
Line 348 & 358
