I have created a simple custom calendar list using a sandboxed solution. I want to use recurring event, but that's not working with my created list, it's showing me an error message.

I am getting the error message as below

  • Feature Activated class will already be there in your event receiver. Please uncomment the class & add the code within that class & you are done.

Please check below image for reference

enter image description here

Instead of creating the calendar through a feature element, You have to user c# code to create Calendar list from Event Receiver.

You can use below mentioned code in your FeatureActivated class in your feature event receiver.

public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
        {


                SPSite site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.ID);
                SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web.ID);
                SPList listExistCheck = web.Lists.TryGetList("Calendar List");
                SPList customList;
                if (listExistCheck == null)
                {
                    // Create calendar list and record returned guid
                    Guid customPagesListGuid = web.Lists.Add("Calendar List", "Calendar List", SPListTemplateType.Events);
                    //Get list from stored guid
                    customList = web.Lists[customPagesListGuid];
                    // Set list properties and add required content types

                    customList.Title = "Calendar List";
                    customList.OnQuickLaunch = true; // Set to true to display on the quick launch
                    customList.ContentTypesEnabled = true;
                    customList.Update();
                    customList.Update();
                    web.Update();
                }

        }
