iCal feed not working in Google Calendar

Bug Description

The iCal feed (ex. http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/2007/08/24/feed/all/all/) does not seem to work in Google Calendar although it used to. It simply does not show any events. Attempting to download and manually import does not work either (claiming there are zero events). The actual iCal file does contain event information.

This feature is very important to me personally as I've set it up to get sms messages to alert/remind me of meetings I need to attend.

I'll ask NewZ to look at this to see what his upgrade plans are.

Matt has agreed to take this. We may just be out of date on the module.

We appear to be running the latest modules and the fix isn't included. I've seen the problem outlined and (I think) a solution discussed here: http://drupal.org/node/143894

This is still on my hit list, but Gutsy's release date looms and I have time for few other tasks.

Correct. That page does list a fix.

"I edited the modules/event/ical.inc file. I replaced all instances of "VALUE=DATE" with "VALUE=DATE-TIME". A couple of hours later my personal Google Calendar was displaying the events from the feed."

Is there any updates? It still isn't working for me and it is a rather useful feature :P

I too would like to confirm that the iCal feed is not working with Google Calender. It would be good if this could be fixed :) Does anyone have any updates?

Why did you unassign Matthew?

It has been nearly a year since I heard from him regarding this bug (and no apparent progress), so I have unassigned. If I made a mistake, please revert my change.

Not applicable since we are now using a Google Calendar.
