Team Calendar reports "Error(s) occurred. error" -- but functionality seems ok
Asked by Larry Talley:

After adding a calendar to My Calendars for a particular user, that user gets a pink panel below the title My Calendars and the panel says Error(s) occurred. see attached.

The functionality of Team Calendars seems to be ok from what we have tested so far.

body: Try out the followings:

1. Ensure the [Server Base URL](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Configuring+the+Server+Base+URL) matches the URL you're accessing Confluence instance.
2. Clearing plugin cache directories by removing the following directories and restart Confluence:

* \<confluence-home\>/bundled-plugins
* \<confluence-home\>/plugin-cache
* \<confluence-home\>/plugins-osgi-cache
* \<confluence-home\>/plugins-temp
* \<confluence-home\>/bundled-plugins_language

This will only remove the plugin cache files only. It won't remove any installed plugins. These directories will be created automatically on the next Confluence startup.

How do I get the Team Calendar off the dashboard?
Asked by Pamela Cole:

We like using the team calendar but we don't want it taking up all the space on the Dashboard....how can I get it off the dashboard??


Answers:
author: Stefan Kohler
body: Hi,

I you go to your plugin management in Confluence and take a look at the modules of Team Calendar (should be 37) there is also a module called "Dashboard upcoming events". Disabling that module would do the trick!

Cheers,  
Stefan


author: Sherif Mansour
body: Hi,

What Stefan said. Also, I'm curious why you want to remove it? Isn't the upcoming events list helpful? Just trying to understand why - maybe we've done something wrong and we can improve the experience.

comments: author: Pamela Cole
body: When there are a lot of events, or out of office entries, the calendar listing takes up 60% of the left hand dashboard, and most of the visible screen view of the dashboard. In our company, these calendar events ARE NOT the most important things that should be taking up valuable real estate on the dashboard.

That said, we use the individual wiki page where the calendar is posted to see calendar events a lot, and a simple click is enough to get there.


author: Jan
body: same here... we use the TeamCalender for several purposes like time lining of trainees being in departments, travel calendars (who is visiting which country) and so on... all these entries are taking too much space on the dashboard. Also I do not like that events with more than one days have a single listing for each day. Thanks for the hint above, works fine.
No users showing on Team Calendar
Asked by Rory O'Rourke:

I am admin, I've added a bunch of users to Confluence but when I go to add someone to a People Calendar I get the "no users found" error. This even goes for my user name. What am I missing?![](../../upfiles/nousers.png)ca


Answers:
author: hsuhailah
body: Hey there,

What version of Team Calendar plugin that you have installed?

Anyway, try to rebuild Confluence index (Confluence Admin \> Content Indexing \> Search Index \> Rebuild). If the problem persists, you can next try to [rebuild the](http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Rebuild+the+Content+Indices+from+scratch)[content indices from scratch](http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Rebuild+the+Content+Indices+from+scratch).

Hope this helps!

comments: author: Rory O'Rourke
body: Hello,

I am using the ondemand version. I see a JIRA calendar version 1.19, is that the Team Calendar plugin?

Rebuilding the index did not help, and the link you sent for doing it from scratch doesn't a link for doing it Confluence 4.2.

Thanks!

Team Calendar not sending email notifications to watchers when new entries and updates made
Asked by John Alton:

Setup a People Calendar and an Events Calendar. Configured to watch both. Created an entry in both. Updated same entry in both. Waited a day. Did not receive email notification from either watched Team Calendar.


Answers:
author: Saul Perdomo
body: Hi John,

Found this post while googling for a similar issue. In our experience, I've found that everyone \*but the poster\* receives an email when updating a calendar. Apparently the system does not send the updater an email, the logic might be that if you're making the change you don't need an email about it... but you should still get one as a watcher of that calendar, I always expect one as verification.

comments: author: Abigail Brooks
body: In the email settings, the default is to not receive notifications from your own actions. My team has found it very beneficial to change the setting so that we do receive notifications that we trigger as it helps us better understand the system and what prompts notifications.

Team Calendars: Error(s) occurred. 500 -
Asked by Oliver Lade:

I've installed Confluence and the Team Calendars plugin (2.3.1), and just a week or two ago it was working fine. Recently I've realised that it's throwing a mysterious error 500 with no details (see image below). No calendars or tasks are displayed, and nothing can be created. Does anyone know what might be causing this problem?

I haven't changed much in the time since it was working, however we have changed the base URL of JIRA and Confluence from containing an explicit port to being behind a reverse proxy for a clean URL. Could this be interfering with any of Team Calendars' operations?

I've also uninstalled and reinstalled with no success.

![](../../upfiles/cal.PNG)


Answers:
author: Oliver Lade
body: Fixed! David from support figured it out (see <https://support.atlassian.com/browse/CSP-84844?focusedCommentId=2759729#comment-2759729>).

The problem was that although I had updated the Base URL of Confluence, I had not updated the Application Link to JIRA. I went to Browse \> Confluence Admin \> Application Links and got a message saying that JIRA wasn't at that URL, and asking if I'd like to update the URL. I replaced the :8090 with a /jira, and all was well!

It only affected me because I was the only person with a JIRA issues calendar added to their Team Calendar. Hence when it tried to access JIRA via the broken URL, it blew up.

Hopefully the devs can fix this up and add a nice error message referencing the Application Links.

comments: author: David Mason
body: Just to let you know, there is a bug in Team Calendars <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/TEAMCAL-721> which will be fixed in version 2.4. Once fixed, there will be a better error message indicating the true cause, and you will not lose access to all calendars if there is one JIRA calendar on an application link that isn't working.

Regards,

David

Where can i find team calendar of database?
Asked by Yim Jinoh:

install confluence plugin tem-calendars2.0.0

insert date in team calendar

where save???

i finde no confluence DB


Answers:
author: MatthewC
body: What are you exporting them to? What is your target data form?

the data stored in the SQL is basically an ical file, all the data is there.

You could export everything using some kind of automated web interface (curl scripting) where you just download an the .ics file.

if you want more than that, I wrote a perl script to export calendar data from the OLD Atlassian calendars. Note this is NOT the Team Calendars \& so it won't work but it will give you an idea how you can do it yourself

the code is here:

All "Team Calendar" plugin data is stored in Confluence DB under the BANDANA table. In order to list all of your TeamCal data hyou could execute this SQL query

Best Calendar Tool/Macro/Plugin
Asked by Todd Domingo:

I am looking for a calendar tool/macro/plugin that I can install in Confluence. Basically, I need it to:

1. View month to month including past months

2. A blog news/page be linked to a date on the calendar. Preferrably, it will show a pop-up instead of linking to the actual page.

3. Each link is color-coded for each user-group/project

4. Searchable

I looked at the Team Calendar but it looks like I can do most of what I need to do with the exception of it linking to content or content be displayed when you mouseover/click on it. I like the drag and drop feature and the color-coding it offered by usergroup/project. But can I put more details in the pop-up other than the person's name and the task? Can it link to a page within the space if I need it to do that? The demo didn't show such so I just want to ask the experts here who has used it or know about it to confirm before I go out and buy the plugin.

All input will be much appreaciated. Thank you.


Answers:
author: James Kleinig
body: Hi Todd,

Team Calendars is a great product, but it's still growing. It does 1-3 but not 4 of your requirements.

Search integration is soreley needed, but not yet available.

1. Easy

2. Easy, each event has a field to include a related page or blog url.

3. Each calendar is colour coded, so where you present an aggregate view of several calendars they are differentiated by colour. For some reason the latest release dropped the colour and calendar name from the pop up which is a step backwards I think but not a deal breaker.

The pop up shows event name, location, url if added and Description text - se between those you can fit a fair bit of info into the pop up.

4. Not available. You'd only be able to search across pages and blog related to your events.

We're planning to build some SSRS reports off the confluence database to produce historical data for our business units, not going to be easy but will be useful.

Hoep that helps!

James

comments: author: Todd Domingo
body: Thank you James. I will present the case to my team. Hopefully, this is what we are looking for.

Just not from the Confluence search results screen.

After I've created a people calendar, i tried to add an event with multiple people (including me), but i can add only me. When I trying to add other project members (developers, users), the dynamic lookup says that "No users found".

You could create a support ticket at <https://support.atlassian.com> requesting further help on this case.

How do I add an event for another person to a calendar?
Asked by JonTarrant:

I'm the project manager and would like to be able to add events to a team calendar to indicate when someone is working at home or on vacation? I can't add a person other than myself and I know that they have access to Confluence?

I am using the OnDemand version in 30-day trial mode. I made sure that I signed up for Team Calendars when I setup my trial.


Answers:
author: Matthew Hunter
body: Hi Jon,

If you're using a 'People Calendar' and when you attempt to fill out the 'Who' field the autocomplete doesn't work then you may be running into this issue:

<https://studio.atlassian.com/browse/JST-5774>

Try out the workaround mentioned in that ticket:  
*"A potential workaround is to go to:*  

```
https://subdomain.atlassian.net/wiki/display/~username 
```

*Replace subdomain with your own subdomain, and username with the username of the user you want to appear. This should add the user to the people directory, and allow Confluence to find the user when attempting to share pages etc."*

After you try that workaround try adding that name into the "Who" field. :)

Cheers,

Matt

Is there a way to add colors or symbols to Team Calendars?
Asked by Jason Vance:

We are using Team Calendars (currently version 1.5) for a project, and we have a single calendar dedicated to this project. Our PM would like to know if there is a way to make certain items (i.e. milestones) stand out from meetings, training, etc. by the use of a different color or adding an icon. I wasn't able to find a way ...

Team Calendar Reminders
Asked by Michael Roff:
