Links to shared Outlook.com calendars return status code 500

Anonymous

Hi,

Some user is reporting that links to his shared calendars no longer work since this morning:

For example:

https://sharing.calendar.live.com/calendar/private/22858d19-dee8-401a-b4bb-14eaba1c2335/693b382b-52de-4221-a58c-60cb0e80ce46/cid-c213ae407664e8be/index.html

...returns an HTTP status code 500 (server error). Microsoft service status reports that Calendar is running normally, but it is obviously not. Please fix.

Thank you

It will work only if the other user is already signed into an account. The issue occurs only when not signed in.

I have given up waiting. I have created a new calendar and set up links using Yahoo. It works fine, maybe even better that the Outlook version used to.

Hi,

I too am experiencing this issue.

However, what I've noticed is IE returns status code 500.

If I use Firefox, a blank screen displays with "Done" in the status bar.

By clicking on the "Reload current page" the calendar is then displayed properly.

Hope this helps!

Good to see that you have been able to have a work around. Still not how it should be.

I want to get in on the news of this, because it is a problem for me on my church's website right now as well. I'm trying to share the church's calendar and it seems to work every once in a while, but of course the 500 error is dominant.
