Hi, I have suddenly started getting an error on one of two .ics URL's, both open directly into Outlook and GMail, but one has started giving the error:
Not a valid VCALENDAR data file:
http://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/webfixtures@
http://glebelands.surrey.sch.uk/Calendar/calendar.ics
but this one works:
http://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/webcal@
http://glebelands.surrey.sch.uk/Calendar/calendar.ics
(apparently I'm not permitted to post links so add the h t t p : \ \ to the start and line two after the @ sign on both the above)
I have gone back into the calendar sharing and confirmed that nothing has changed since it worked, and that both .ics files have exactly the same sharing parameters.
I'm at a loss and would welcome any insight anyone can give to get this working.
Many Thanks
Guy

Both just worked perfectly for me on my server - BUT in doing this I noticed that Joomla 3.4 is less efficient on memory usage than in the past so if the import is into 2 separate server you may be running out of memory?

Thanks for the reply Geraint, both are importing onto the same server, into two different calendars in JEvents.
The error is always on one and not the other, regardless of which I've clicked first, we are running on a shared host so not sure if memory is the problem, I'll have to ask the hosting provider to check that, but seems strange as it is actually the smaller of the two calendars that it always fails on.

The memory issue would manifest itself as a 500 error or white screen so that is probably not the problem.
You could add a diagnostic message in the code - edit the file components/com_jevents/libraries/iCalImport.php and at line 173 you'll see
insert this code immediately above this
Then you'll see what the web server has obtained from Outlook.

Thanks again
I get this:
Importing events from ical file http://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/webfixtures@
http://glebelands.surrey.sch.uk/Calendar/calendar.ics
I hope this is a URL!!
The webcal one goes through still and gives me:
Message
36 deleted iCal events removed
127 iCal events processed
ICS_FILE_IMPORTED

So it looks as though its failed to get any data
Can you check you don't have http:// on one and https:// on the other URL

Hi Guy,
I'm going to guess the working URL is https://.
There is a big push on the internet to start using https as standard so it's possible Microsoft deprecated version.
Thanks
Tony
