      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.

              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

                      so, thats why I said

                      pm2 stop all

                                    and run again, then u will see the calendar processing

                                    Will it work like this “npm start >cal_test_log.txt | grep calendar”?

                                        @sdetweil It’s running, how long should I wait before checking the output file?, as there is no output in the ssh window.
