Execution failed: Event start date must be before event end date.

Link to my ICS feed (from Canvas, it is a school tool for tracking assignments and stuff):
https://uwplt.instructure.com/feeds/calendars/user_ltI6MNY6ML1ZsYNEL9zwrRBiV38kZcB97NTZagce.ics

This is the error: Execution failed: Event start date must be before event end date. (line 172, file "Code")

I looked through the past issues that looked like this, but couldn't really figure it out. I have the default duration as 60 minutes, not really sure why this doesn't just override the time error.

Please try this!

@jonas0b1011001 That worked! Thanks!
Is there a reason that isn't merged into the current version yet?

@jonas0b1011001 Technically speaking this format of ics doesn't conform to the standard. But we've seen a lot of people have this problem recently so we'll implement the fix for everyone soon.

(You can read more about why it doesn't conform in @jonas0b1011001 's comment here - specifically point 2)

[jonas0b1011001]

In case you want to report the issues to whoever is responsible for creating these ics files (and for the sake of completeness):
in contrast to the example used in this comment your events do have the Value=Date property but the date itself is specified in Date-Time format. This (in addition to point 2 in the mentioned comment) is invalid because according to RFC 5545 the

Value MUST match value type

Very interesting, yeah I dont think contacting the people with that ics will work.
