Error with Outlook Calendar

[sdetweil]

@bokchok the other thing is, the error means that some cal entry is using a timezone which is not registered in the authorized windows timezone names

@bokchok i just checked on an install I did thursday

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

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

@sdetweil @bokchok the develop version probably would have pulled in 0.12.0 sometime last week…

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

[bokchok]

@sdetweil Did a clean install, for some reason I have 0.12.0 again. I’m not getting the error, though…

@sdetweil said in Error with Outlook Calendar:

~/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

@Yunalescar weird

[sdetweil]

ok, looks like it’s my fault. I forgot to update the line in package.json here,
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

I’ve added a troubleshooting topic

@bokchok ok, looking thru your calendar, it has a custom timezone named ‘TZID:Eastern Standard Time 1’

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…

@sdetweil Good to know! I’m glad this was helpful.
