Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.
Annual Dates are off by one day in default Calendar module
-
@ctkjedi this is usually because the date in the ICS file isn’t right…
can u show me one entry from the ics file, its just text, each event is
begin vevent
to
end vevent -
BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:19520402T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:19520403T000000 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;WKST=SU;UNTIL=20361231T000000Z DTSTAMP:20210316T001016Z UID:**REDACTED** CREATED:20210314T202209Z DESCRIPTION: LAST-MODIFIED:20210314T202209Z LOCATION: SEQUENCE:0 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Mom's birthday TRANSP:OPAQUE END:VEVENT
This SHOULD be on April 2nd, but it’s displaying on the mirror as the 3rd. On Google Calendar, it’s fine.
-
@sdetweil I tried defaulting back to a standard config and I’m seeing the same off results. I’m noticing it’s not just annual dates, but any regular repeating dates.
-
@ctkjedi well, in this particular case the daylight savings adjustment calculation is wrong, so we get off a day
in 1952, DST starts on April 27th
in 1992. DST starts on April 5th
in 2007 DST starts on March 11the date/time gave me the right offset but i ‘assumed’ it was same as now…
if u reset the start year of the entry to 2008, it comes out right…
next release is on april 1st… don’t know if I can get this change in by then
-
@sdetweil goddang daylight saving time! I really hope they follow through this time and get rid of it.
I’m not really sure where the start date was set though. I only added it to this particular calendar a few days ago and there isn’t a way, that I can see, to edit it.
-
@ctkjedi I submitted a fix for this issue, #2483
and the fix has been accepted for next release. -
@sdetweil Awesome. thanks for the follow up!
-
@sdetweil This may or may not be related, so I’m happy to start a new thread.
I have a weekly D&D game, scheduled for every Saturday evening. The ICS reads as
BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210319T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210319T230000 DTSTAMP:20210316T001016Z UID:**REDACTED** RECURRENCE-ID;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210320T200000 CREATED:20210213T021153Z DESCRIPTION:**REDACTED** LAST-MODIFIED:20210315T194037Z LOCATION:**REDACTED** SEQUENCE:1 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:D&D TRANSP:OPAQUE END:VEVENT
However, I rescheduled this week’s event for Friday, which reflects correctly on Google Calendar, but now all the entries on the mirror have been re-calculated as being on every Friday going forward.
-
@ctkjedi can u show the updated ics event with the rule (repeating rule)…
this one is not repeating
