[Plugin: All-in-One Event Calendar] Import and ICS feed don't work

I tried eliminating just the s in the https but it seems to still not show up on the front end. would another plugin be messing it up?

@bradycreative
When you add the ics file and hit the Update button, do you see a “Flush 1 event” button showing up after the request is complete?
Also, does the event show up in all events list?

I deactivated all plugins and still nothing. the prompt I receive is “No events were found” when I click to update the ics feed.

Can you upload a test.php file with the following code and paste the output:

<?php
print_r(stream_get_wrappers());
?>

Array ( [0] => https [1] => ftps [2] => compress.zlib [3] => compress.bzip2 [4] => php [5] => file [6] => data [7] => http [8] => ftp [9] => zip )

Okay, that means your server is able to get the ics feed. Now, the problem must be somewhere else.
Can you make me a temporary user with super user rights?

Thank you for your help!

No problem.
Can you upload a test.php file with the following content and paste the output:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors','On');
echo file_get_contents( 'https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/161hkrdo0qrhfc6sj4s613gib4%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics' );

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /homepages/2/d175715330/htdocs/ECBC/test.php on line 3

Warning: file_get_contents(https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/161hkrdo0qrhfc6sj4s613gib4%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /homepages/2/d175715330/htdocs/ECBC/test.php on line 3

@bradycreative
You will have to get in touch with your hosting provider and tell them that you need to use php file_get_contents function.
If the need an example, you can use the code below:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors','On');
echo file_get_contents( 'https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/161hkrdo0qrhfc6sj4s613gib4%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics' );

One that has been taken care of, try importing the feed again and let me know if you are still having troubles ??

They said the php file_get_contents function is working but to enable it I need to make a php.ini file, put in this syntax: allow_url_fopen = On

but it still doesn’t seem to work :/

@bradycreative

Make sure that the php.ini file is placed here: /homepages/2/d175715330/htdocs/
If you have access, put another copy of php.ini here: /homepages/2/d175715330/

Also, try adding the following line to your .htaccess file (/homepages/2/d175715330/htdocs/.htaccess):
php_flag allow_url_fopen On

When you are done with the changes, the first thing to try is to access a test.php file with the following content:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors','On');
echo file_get_contents( 'https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/161hkrdo0qrhfc6sj4s613gib4%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics' );

If you see the following output:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /homepages/2/d175715330/htdocs/ECBC/test.php on line 3

then you should try contacting again your hosting provider and ask them to do the change for you.
Otherwise, if everything is correct, try importing the ics feed again.

It seems to be working now. Thanks.

Thanks for this support thread, fixed any issue I had. This plugin is wonderful.

HI there,

I am having a similar problem and I followed all the steps in this thread. I activated the php.ini allow_url_fopen = On. I didn’t do the .htaccess because it give me a 500 error and I read these only work in php 6 anyhow.

I am hosted on 1and1.com.

I also tested the :

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors','On');
echo file_get_contents( 'https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/161hkrdo0qrhfc6sj4s613gib4%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics' );

?>

You can see the result here :
https://radhayogacenter.org/wordpress/test.php

Which display the actual calendar. I looked into the error trough the firebug ajax-admin script and it cleanly give an error that there is no event.

I tried the calendar on a different site and it worked so it’s defenitly my settings or my host :S.

The calendar I am working with is :

https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/p2cair4pvme86jk5jk8hiidufk%40group.calendar.google.com/private-e7c7f3286e569f11085df6510f1c54ec/basic.ics

which is also copied locally to test here :

https://radha.org/basic.ics

The php info shows that I have these on :

allow_url_fopen On On
allow_url_include On On

https://radhayogacenter.org/wordpress/phpinfo.php

What else should I be looking for ?
