Got Calendar Mod finally working with DEV 1.2.3

[volkman]

It was just uncommenting one line and getting, what "prefix" means for the db.

I am using:
MySql 4.0.2x, PHP 4.3.x, phpwcms DEV 1.2.3
Downloaded:
Ionrock's CalendarMOD (2) -Customized by Thomas Hafner (--...--/index.php/topic,157.0.html)

The mod comes with a good installation instruction. DEV-users have to keep in mind, that "/include/inc_conf/conf.inc.php" moved to "/config/phpwcms/conf.inc.php".

First "optional" modification is to be applied to "/mod_calendar/inc_lib/main.config.php" of the mod. You have to chose the "prefix" and (if you werer rocking around with your installation before) the tablenames. If you had a fresh install of phpwcms DEV 1.2.3 all tablenames of your database start with "phpwcms_".
In main.config.php from "Ionrock's CalendarMOD (2) -Customized by Thomas Hafner" all tablenames start with "phpwcms_", so dont add a prefix. Otherwise your tablenames end up like "phpwcmsphpwcms:cal...".

After installation I got the "Calendar Module" link in my admin-area. Clicked on the link, noting happens. After crawling the discussions here I was ready to give up, no success. Tried all the tipps here, none worked for me.

Finally I checked "/include/include_module/mod_calendar/app.header.php". First line gives

require_once "Mail.php"; // PEAR mail class

I uncommented it to

//require_once "Mail.php"; // PEAR mail class

now my calendar works, I'm happy, phpwcms is great anyway, thanks to oliver and the community.

Still happy that I made it, still some problems left. Using Ionrock's CalendarMOD (2) original version, everything works smooth - complete functionality. The version customized by Thomas Hafner causes some trouble here. I'd like to make it run, cause I need the german version. Using his version, I can't setup categories or events, just language-files (in the db). I am so far ok with the english backend, just curious why the customized version causes trouble.
Installing the original version dont forget to uncomment
require_once "Mail.php"; // PEAR mail class
in /include/include_module/mod_calendar/app.header.php
so it reads
//require_once "Mail.php"; // PEAR mail class

I just recently upgraded to v1.2.4-DEV.
I was never able to get the calendar to work with 1.1 RC4.
Does anyone have a working demo?
