Calendar Events not passing to MMM-CalendarEXT3
-
Hello all, I’ve got an issue I hope someone can help with. My MagicMirror has been working great for a year or so. I use MMM-Calext3, and have generic holidays and a personal google calendar shown. It has worked without issue.
A few days ago, I was trying to install a module that puts the display to sleep on a schedule and whatnot. In the process, I goofed up my config.js and the mirror would launch but had errors (wrong characters in wrong places type issues). I did not touch any of my calendar entries nore the calendar modules. While troubleshooting why my power/sleep module wasn’t working I saw I was behind on the MM base version, so I updated. I don’t recall updating anything else. I finally just restore the config.js to the working version i copied before I started.
So now, my MM works, CalEXT3 launches, but I’m not getting any events passed from the default calendar. Again, I did not change a single character in the calendar entries, what is below is what was working fine 48 hours ago. Can someone smarter than myself take a look? I did npm start, but is seems to hang up after the System information line. I left it about 10 minutes with no change or additional lines showing up, eventually just had to ctrl-c out of it. I can put the calendar ICS links in a browser and they still work.let config = { address: "localhost", // Address to listen on, can be: // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface // - "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface // Default, when address config is left out or empty, is "localhost" port: 8080, basePath: "/", // The URL path where MagicMirror² is hosted.

@bobbylx the new MagicMirror version checks the position against a known list, and “” is invalid
module: "calendar", position: "",just comment out the position
module: "calendar", // position: "", -
@sdetweil You sir are correct, that fixed it. I guess I should have read some release notes, haha. Thanks for your help.
-
@bobbylx glad you got it working
we added the checks because we crashed otherwise. we shouldn’t crash.
there was an error reported in the MagicMirror startup messages as well
-
@bobbylx can you mark this resolved
