I subscribe to several calendar feeds. The feeds are for Meetup events.

I noticed this morning that none of my feeds have any events anywhere in my calendar. I checked the feed URLs using `curl` and there are indeed events in the feeds.

I tried upgrading to the 2015-08-17 Win64 nightly and this did not resolve the problem.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Looks like you got a workaround So I am marking this post as a solution to close this topic and get it into Google.search (open topics do not get indexed) so it might appear in others searches.

Yes, Lightning, the calendar built in to Thunderbird.

Here are the URLs of two of the calendars:

http://api.meetup.com/sacgeeks/upcoming.ical webcal://www.meetup.com/sacgeeks/events/ical/

I tried the second because, as described above, no calendar items are displayed for the first. But no calendar items are displayed for the second, either.

"Calendar feed" is a term that is well used - https://www.google.com/search?q=calendar+feed - but I don't have a preference for what we call them here if that helps me get them working again.

Names only matter to me in that we need to be on the same page.

But using the same URL I get a load of error in the error console of the type Timestamp: 18/08/2015 1:39:38 PM Error: TypeError: ICAL.Value.fromString is undefined Source File: resource://calendar/modules/ical.js Line: 641

I have filed bug 1195618 I would suggest you create a Bugzilla account and add yourself to the CC list. Hopefully we will see early attention to the issue, and you are really better place to answer questions than I am. I just reproduced it.
