Any errors showing in "System Events?"

No - no events showing.

What version of the snippet are you using? Mind PMing me login details so I can take a quick look around?

Another option is to find the assets/snippets/GoogleEvents/php/simplepie.inc and do a find replace for the following:

"=& new" to "= new"

This worked for me too Jesse! Thanks

Hi,

I haven’t got this working yet.

If I try with my gmail account and have the calendar NOT shared than I get the expected error of : "The feed is unavailable. This could be caused by the server being down, an incorrect feed address, all your events are in the past, or if you have no events in your feed."

If I share the calendar, public, then the website doesn’t even load and I get the following error: "Error while inserting event log into database." which I believe is a ModX error. But seeing as though I know it is related to this snippet I thought to post the query here.

Anyone know what’s going on?

Tip for using PHx

I have a calendar with mostly multiple day events. And I want the calendar to show startDate - EndDate for these multiple day events. I had problems so this is what you do

1. In Google Calendar, do not check ’This is an all day event’
2. In your tpl chunk, use the following phx

hello everybody,

i dont get the Googleevent working. i tried (all) solutions shown above. still getting "The feed is unavailable. This could be caused by the server being down, an incorrect feed address, all your events are in the past, or if you have no events in your feed."

Have a short look here http://www.gruenau-move.de/index.php?id=37

What I’ve done so far:
1. upload the zip to assets/assets/snippets/GoogleEvents
2. set cache to chmod777
3. ran the simplepie tester http://www.gruenau-move.de/sp_compatibility_test.php. everything is fine!
4. set the email in the snippet
5. set this call [!GoogleEvents?dayNameSize=`full`&outputType=`calendar`&calendarType=`wide`&email=`[email protected]`!]
5.1 result:...the feed is unavailable
6. set the debug mode to true
7. result is linked above -> the feed-url is working, calendar is set to public by default
8. the systems log panel showed the timezone error -> did include the timezonevariable in the snippet
9. replaced every ’= &new’ with ’= new’ in the simplepie.inc

...no result...bang my head on the desk...any ideas?

And Jesse, i can PM you a login, if you like.

thanks le block

PS: the site is uncached.

nobody got an idea?

me again,

to explore whether my installation is wrong or it is a server issue, im installed the snippet on a ’test’-cms.
everything works fine. (http://www.fromustoyou.de/index.php?id=69) so i guess the error depends on servervariables.
The CMS is located on a larger Server at the University of Leipzig. Maybe the admins did their (security)job good.

The problem is here: http://www.gruenau-move.de/index.php?id=37
Updated the simplepieclass and comp-test to 1.1.1. and turned the debug mode on. the feeds link correctly to the google-events. But whats the problem to show the calender/list?
Default errortext is shown: "The feed is unavailable. This could be caused by the server being down, an incorrect feed address, all your events are in the past, or if you have no events in your feed."
But i copied the working calls from the test-installation (first link in this post).

Is it possible to echo out something in the snippet-code to separate the function which is throwing the error? Im a PHP-Noob so i need your help.

Thanks, le block

PS: The newer Simplepiecompatibility_test passed. (www.gruenau-move.de/sp_compatibility_test.php)
