Adding Events and Categories Does Not Work

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install plugin on Wordpress 3.2.1
2. Attempt to add an event or category

What is the expected output?

The creation of an event or category.

What do you see instead?

Nothing. No errors, nothing at all.

Please provide any additional information below.

I can't add categories or events using the plugin. I've deactivated all the 
other plugins, switched to the twenty ten theme, nothing makes it work.

When submitting an event, it allows me to put everything in and submit, but it 
never shows up on the calendar. When attempting to add a category, it lets me 
pick a color etc, but never does anything when I click "add."

Check your PHP and WordPress logs, the errors are likely occurring on the back 
end.

When I go to add a category, firebug outputs this:

action  add_category
category_data   fgcolor=%23FFFFFF&category=test&bgcolor=%23005294
Source
action=add_category&category_data=fgcolor%3D%2523FFFFFF%26category%3Dtest%26bgco
lor%3D%2523005294

And it gives a response of 0

Could be a permission issue, check your backend logs.
These messages don't provide enough detail as to the cause of the problem.
For example, what resource was the server unable to find?

Sorry if this makes me look like an idiot, but I've been searching for those 
logs and can't seem to find them. Where should I be looking?

WordPress log is located in the wp-content directory: debug.log
The PHP log location is determined by your ISP, you should ask your host.

Have you made any progress with this issue?

I've requested that the main admin give me access to the backend logs. 
Hopefully I'll hear back soon.

Someone posted a response to the thread over on wordpress.org about this and 
said:

I am running into this same issue. Things which may be related:

- I'm running a network of 3 sites using the wordpress "Network" feature.
- Also, I do not see the plugin in the list of installed plugins (i would like 
to reinstall it).
- After looking deeper into it, it looks like the plugin did not install itself 
properly, or at least it did not properly take into account the "Network" of 
sites feature.

It created two tables:

wp_aec_event
wp_aec_event_category

but when I tried to create an event or category, it tried to insert into:

wp_2_aec_event
wp_2_aec_event_category

which did not exist. It tried to use those tables because that's the wordpress 
naming convention for tables of a subsite (in this case with id 2).

I wouldn't be surprised if this was what was happening to me as well. I believe 
my site is set up as part of a network (it's a highschool's site, provided 
through a district-wide installation). Something worth looking into at least.

If that is the case, I would refer you to the plugin description which 
specifically states this plugin does not support WordPress MU installations.  
If you are interested in this functionality add a star to issue #9.
