Default Calendar stuck on loading

Re: Calendar Module not working with Google Calendar

Magic Mirror Default Calendar not working. Just stuck loading. I get this with the US Holidays link. I installed node-ical@0.16.1 and Electron@28.1.1. I even disabled IPv6.

@sdetweil I reverted back to socket.io@4.7.2 that was used on MagicMirror@2.26.0 and that fixed the issue! I tried socket.io@4.7.5 but that didnt work. So I went back to @4.7.2 and that fixed it. It might just be a compatibility issue with Firefox ESR. Mystery Solved! Thanks for all your help!

@rushmuzik can you show the output of npm start

be careful some of the messages about calendar contain the full url from config

[sdetweil]

@rushmuzik new calendar updates coming next release, jan 1

depend on fixes in node-ical 0.20.1

[rushmuzik]

@sdetweil how do I show that?

@rushmuzik you have to be in the MagicMirror folder for npm start

@sdetweil

I apologize for my ignorance. Im a noob but I learn quickly. Im using firefox not chromium

[sdetweil]

@rushmuzik i’m confused, that is running my run-start script,
but setup for chromium not firefox.

if you are using this script and want firefox then you have to add the
export external_browser=firefox
before you do npm start

else my script will just loop

[rushmuzik]

@sdetweil after running your script I did the following

sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
sudo apt autoremove

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install firefox-esr

cd ~/MagicMirror
export external_browser=firefox
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)”

cd ~/MagicMirror/
pm2 start MagicMirror

@sdetweil

This is what I get from npm start now after running

export external_browser=firefox
DISPLAY=:0 npm start
