Calendar events not displaying

Post by Rob_S »

Weird issue I am having with 3.53.1 beta

You may have read that I was having trouble getting my calendar back after installing 2.53.2, so I went back to 2.53.1 b, and by editing the about-config as per reply received, so now calendar is back in V2.53.

Unfortunately no events are displayed. I tried adding an event and it does modify calendar-data/local.sqlite file, approx 992 kb in size. Newly added events get displayed. Copying in the local.sqlite file from a backup which was functional in an earlier release of 2.53 does not display the events. It does eliminate any newly added events, as one might expect.

Re-installing the latest 2.53 today did not resolve the issue.

Any ideas???

Follow the directions for reinstalling Lightning in the Known Issues section of the Release Notes would be what I would attempt.

Thanks, so I tried that. Removed the addon, restarted, reset the distro, restarted, and it came back in all its glory, except unfortunately my events are still not displayed.

Local or network calendar?

If a network calendar. How are you accessing it?

Did you happen to export your calendar to ics or cvs?

I think I found the answer here as per link below - in that apparently somehow my cal_id value in prefs.js has become misaligned with my local.sqlite file.

This must have occurred while installing updates or beta versions.

Fortunately, my calendar did not contain much info, so I found it easier to rebuild the calendar than to perform the repairs in the article below
