Question

We've installed the CalendarPlugin and the required CPAN dependencies. We've also run the CalendarPlugin_installer.pl successfully. The problem we're having is that the calendar shows up fine in the preview, but after you save teh page and view it all you see is %CALENDER%. Has anyone else seen this problem and know how to correct it?

From http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/TWikiVMDebianStable :

"view is running SpeedyCGI. This implies that plugins that you add do not seem to work (they only produce the correct output when previewing topics after edit). This is by design as explained by SteffenPoulsen in PluginsOnlyWorkInPreview."

How did you run the CalendarPlugin_installer.pl successfully? I'm getting a error finding findUser ??!!??

There is no need to run it. Just install the dependencies (CPAN:HTML::CalendarMonthSimple and CPAN:Date::Calc) and unpack the downloaded CalendarPlugin file to the twiki instalation directory. Do not forget to enable it on the configure page. Also check the file permissions and ownership as explained in SettingFileAccessRightsLinuxUnix.

It worked for me by installing the dependencies (CPAN:HTML::CalendarMonthSimple and CPAN:Date::Calc) per EnriqueCadalso's instructions above.
