Hey guys,
Can you tell me what can cause that Popup calendar from the date module (which uses jquery ui) stops showing the calendar?
I asked them the same question but I want to cover all the bases.

Jolidog CreditAttribution: Jolidog commentedHave you followed the readme?
I say this because you need to download jquery ui (not the module) and put it in the module directory.
Also make sure you are using the correct jquery ui version for the jquery version your site is using:
jquery 1.2 (drupal core) -> jquery ui 1.6
jquery 1.3 (jquery update module) -> jquery ui 1.7
Check you status report page to see if there's any errors there.
If there's no errors, please make this issue active and provide more information on your instalation/configuration settings.
Good luck!

Jolidog CreditAttribution: Jolidog commentedGreat!
Meanwhile I found this issue #436490: Add support for jQuery update to 1.3.x and jQuery UI 1.7.x, for anyone who stumbles on this...
Marking it has fixed anyway...

mtpultz CreditAttribution: mtpultz commentedInstalled JQuery UI due to updating Date module. I've installed it and I have the jquery.ui folder with jquery ui 1.6 in the jquery_ui module folder. But it just keeps telling me to "install JQuery UI module to make the Datepicker work and do it immediately". Any ideas? I've uninstalled and reinstalled and I still keep getting the error message that it wants JQuery UI module installed.

SteveMM CreditAttribution: SteveMM commentedI ran into a problem here. I could not activate the "jQuery UI" module. I kept getting the messages to install "jQuery UI" as well.
Go to folder "sites/all/modules/jquery_ui." Then, if necessary, rename folder "jquery.ui-1.6" to "jquery.ui" and, if necessary, enable the module and run update.php.
That fixed things for me.
Drupal v6.19 plus LOTS of third-party modules.
Good luck.

cwkelly3 CreditAttribution: cwkelly3 commentedI am running 6.19. When responding to a critical security notice, I updated more modules than those that caused the alert. One such module required the Date Popup module, which I already had installed. When I updated the Date Popup I began to receive warnings about the jQuery UI module being required at some future date for the Date Popup module. I downloaded jQuery UI and unzipped it into the sites/all/modules/jQuery_ui directory. Then I enabled the module, and updated my system. But I still get this message:
The Date Popup module now requires the jQuery UI module as a source for the datepicker. Please install it immediately.
When looked at the module listing, jQuery UI is not checked. So I checked it again, saved the configuration, and found the module unchecked. So the message tells me that the module is not installed, but I cannot save the configuration that forces the installation to occur.
Sorry for being so wordy. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate your help and advice. -chip

Jolidog CreditAttribution: Jolidog commentedHave you tried the directions from post #1 above?
Meaning, have you downloaded jquery UI not just the drupal module jquery_ui?
Comment #11
cwkelly3 CreditAttribution: cwkelly3 commentedYes. I downloaded the tarball (jquery_ui-6.x-1.4.tar.gz). When expanded it created ~/sites/all/modules/jquery_ui andit installed the module, as well as everything else in the package.

sp3boy CreditAttribution: sp3boy commentedYou need more than just the jquery_ui-6.x-1.4.tar.gz. It should probably emphasise that better on the http://drupal.org/project/jquery_ui page.
Read your ~/sites/all/modules/jquery_ui/README.txt and follow the additional installation instructions.
You should end up with the NON-DRUPAL jquery ui library in a sub-directory of ~/sites/all/modules/jquery_ui and the sub-directory should be called jquery.ui
With that in place, the jquery_ui module should enable in the admin/build/modules page and eliminate the warning messages.
