@vanced54 said in Google Calendar not updating:

calendar error 404: Not Found

that means the URL you provided is not working (not found)

put the url in the browser on the pi, it must download an ics file… if not fix til it does
then add THAT url to MM calendar config

So I have gotten the 404 error to clear but there are no events coming in.

{
module: “calendar”,
header: “Dustin’s Calendar”,
position: “top_left”,
config: {
calendars: [
{
symbol: “calendar-check-o”,
url: “https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/USERNAME%40gmail.com/private-CODE/basic.ics” }
]
}
},

Here is the code. I did change my user name to USERNAME and the private code to CODE

@vanced54 if u edit the downloaded ics file. Do you see the events u are looking for?

[vanced54]

@sdetweil I sure do

[sdetweil]

@vanced54 do you see in the terminal window, or pm2 logs

 Create new calendar fetcher for url: http://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics - Interval: 300000

but with your url?

do you see any errors?

[vanced54]

@sdetweil

Not that I see but there may be something I am overlooking

[sdetweil]

@vanced54 ok, there is a debug tool in the /modules/default/calendar folder

edit the debug.js and put your url in the place of the one there

and then do

node debug.js

it should display events read from the calendar

[vanced54]

@sdetweil where do I do the node debug.js?

I tried it but doesn’t seem to work

I did edit the debug.js file with the same link.

[sdetweil]

@vanced54 you have to be in the MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar folder

[vanced54]

@sdetweil

It does find events. So that means the link is good I belive.

[sdetweil]

@vanced54 are the events in the future?

open the developers window on the mirror
using the ctrl-shift-i on the keyboard or npm start dev

then select the console tab, and scroll up… u can also filter to just the module
by putting part of the module name in the filter field ‘cal’ (no quotes) for example
