      @louise what does “doesn’t” work mean

      cal shows no events?
      or MM shows black screen?

      also, still waiting for the messages from npm start time
      you should see something like this (your url of course)

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

      and

      Calendar-Fetcher: Broadcasting 10 events.

        No events showed up. npm start time is the same as it was. No I never saw the message, but I was wasn’t looking.

        With the US Holidays, that comes up. When I put in the google calendar info I get the npm run config:check which says the json can’t parse

          @louise show the messages,.,

          npm start >somefile.txt
          wait til no events
          ctrl-c

          then u can edit somefile.txt to look at the messages emitted by startup

          search for ‘fetcher’

            and did you put the quotes around it as i mentioned before, and be careful, the default line has }
            way out at the end… don’t delete that…

            the npm run will tell you the line where it detect the problem, but the line that CAUSED the problem is usually the line before

            on your prior post of the config, I noticed a missing } as well as the quotes around the URL…

            see your prior post, which I edited

              @sdetweil Yes, I made sure the quotes were there. Also, like I said I was VERY careful not to mess with anything outside the quotes.

              Not sure on the pm start >somefile.txt
              wait til no events
              ctrl-c

              is it pm start>somefile.txt in the terminal window?

                @louise yes, everything is in the terminal window

                all commands are in the terminal window

                again, copy paste the { to } of the calendar module config from the failing config.js and the error message from the cconfig:check
                (and junk up the actual url text so its not valid)

                  Maybe it could be another reason;

                  Confirm whether your calendar is public

                  Unless you check this, your ical URL won’t be accessed. Try your URL in the browser. If it shows 404 error, this might be the reason.

                    @mmrize Yes it is public. It does seem to work now.
