I see a lot of people are using the Event module, seems to be the most popular event/calendar tool. Only problem is, it's a Drupal 4.7 module. Any word on when this will be updated, or if it will? Or is there a new 5.1 solution anyone can suggest?

Thanks!

the version that can be used on a 5.1 install is the HEAD version found here http://drupal.org/node/3238/release

And I have that version up and running on my 5.1 site just fine. Eventrepeat had a very minor error, but if you check the recent issues, I've posted how to fix it.

Hmm. I did everything I needed to do to update it and it's not showing up in my admin/module. Ran the update after loading it also.. Still not showing up. I must have done something wrong... I went back, read documentation, and it said 4.7 won't run with 5.0 modules. Is there something i need to change in the 4.7 event module config files?

I'm getting the same problem. The HEAD just doesn't show up in the module list..

Any fixes?

Are you running Drupal 5.0? You should not have any 4,7 event config files, the head version should have replaced the 4.7 module.

Make sure you've downloaded the most recent version from here:

http://drupal.org/node/3238/release

And then try again. Also, make sure to backup your database before you try and use this module. My suspicion is that a simple upgrade isn't going to cut it, and that you may have to rebuild all of the stuff you built with the previous module.

Well, speak of the devil! 5. event theme has been released.

I've installed it, and can activate the module, however - when i add content to the event - and try to post it, I get the following error: what did i do?

* user warning: Table 'mydrupalsite.event' doesn't exist query: INSERT INTO event (nid, event_start, event_end, timezone) VALUES (13, 1172213220, 1172216820, 309) in F:\wamp\www\drupal\includes\database.mysql.inc on line 172.
* user warning: Table 'mydrupalsite.event' doesn't exist query: select MIN(e.event_start) AS event_start, MAX(e.event_end) AS event_end FROM event e in F:\wamp\www\drupal\includes\database.mysql.inc on line 172.

doesn't look like the necessary tables were created upon installation. use the devel module to reinstall the SQL from event.module.
