[TYPO3-calendar] table 'tx_cal_index' is empty

[Stefan Padberg]

Hi Thomas,

thanks for your reply.

We are not able to upgrade. The customer does not want to after the
desastrous experience with the upgrade from 4.1 to 4.3...

Meanwhile I understood the tx_cal_index mechanism a little bit better.
But you are right there must be something wrong on a more basic level.

I followed the instruction step by step. It is absolutely not the first
extension I am installing which makes me quite sure that anything should
work fine.

1) The extension is installed.
2) The extension templates are included in the root template.
3) A SysDirectory page is declared and filled with some test events
4) A page is filled with the plugin CE and shows an empty calendar.

That is the situation.

I activated the PHP report tool incase we have a version conflict but
until now nothing to observe...

Any idea?

Regards
Stefan
