Subscribe to Zap Calendar in Google Calendar 2 Years, 10 Months ago Karma: 0
I've downloaded n installed 2.0.5 and added a bunch of events, mostly recurring, into my calendar.

Now, when I try to add a subscription from my Zap Calendar into my Google Calendar, Google Calendar returns with the following:

"The address that you provided did not contain a calendar in a valid iCal or GData format."

I tried both the 'http' n 'webcal' protocol versions of my Zap Calendar URL.

You can subscribe to my calendar at the following address. Sorry for the mashed URL, I don't want any search bots to cache my site until we're ready to go live: 'mcf dot third-monday dot com' and then go to the Calendar link in the main menu.

Thanks! R

Yes, very strange. The file successfully validates with an ical validator. I can subscribe to it successfully using Thunderbird, I can download the ics file and upload it back to Google Calendar without a problem, just can't subscribe to it. Do you have access to your Apache log? I would try subscribing again, then check the Apache access and error log files to see if Google tried to access the URL and if it was successful. There's a remote chance it could be a firewall issue with your hosting company, an absence of a log file entry could indicate that.

Hmmmm.... I tried to subscribe again using the 'webcal' protocol in my iCal application and it worked (I hadn't tried that before).

I then tried to subscribe into my Google calendar and it worked, but I didn't change anything... Gremlins.

Here are the HTTPD log entries. I did display the calendar before subcribing to it (in order to get to the 'subscribe' link).

access_log:

Code:

66.249.71.42 - - [12/Jul/2009:18:20:32 -0400] "GET /index.php? option=com_zcalendar&Itemid=39&format=ical HTTP/1.1" 200 930 "- " "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/ bot.html)"


error_log:

Not sure how helpful those will be.

Thanks for the help.

Yes, it is very strange. It is working now for me too. Maybe Google Calendar was having a bad day?

I will look at the errors you posted and correct them in the code, but I don't think this was causing the problem, since it apparantly corrected itself.
