none of the calendar code knows how to handle this… we don’t lookup the time to find the real name.
so you will get random results. the code I added looks up the windows timezone name in the
unicode.org supported cross reference table to get the IANA tz name the code can handle…

the bug u found was that I ‘assumed’ the name would always be found… but not true…

so it only downloads 0.12.0

why I get 0.12.1 I don’t know…
I will fix my install and upgrade scripts, but
will have to write a troubleshooting post for this

thanks guys

~/MagicMirror/node_modules/node-ical/package.json

its “node-ical@0.12.0”

so with the installcall i get an old version? did a fresh install just 12 hours ago and its still 0.12.0

I’m not getting the error, though…

but your ics presented other timezone problems for another fix I am working on, so I fixed that too

grep version MagicMirror/node_modules/node-ical/package.json
“version”: “0.12.1”,

ls MagicMirror/node_modules/node-ical/package.json -laF

I thought I updated after then. I’ll do another clean install and see what happens

~/MagicMirror/node_modules/node-ical/package.json

what is the version number? should be 0.12.1 (which has the fix for the error) 0.12.0 does not have the fix…

we ship node-ical with MM… (new in this release)

and I checked the latest 0.12.1

Everything should be up to date

had a long search and found the soultion:

get latest version of ical.js and copy/write it to ~/MagicMirror/node_modules/node-ical.ical.js

Link : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jens-maus/node-ical/master/ical.js

now it works like a charm ;)

grep version ~/MagicMirror/package.json

and how did u get there? install or upgrade?

are you on version 2.13, or the test iCal version?

I fixed that bug in the node-ical version
