It seems to work here.
Hmmm, did you create a new schedule or did you just recalculate the old one?
If you created a new, you'll have to select the correct schedule to view in 
the View menu. (It should list all schedules you have calculated) Also, the 
schedule name is shown in the status line (bottom right).
I know, this isn't fantastic, it's easy to forget/overlook, so I'm *very* open 
for suggestions of how to improve this!

&gt; &gt;Hi Vidar.<br>
&gt; &gt;Your resource refer to calendar 'vl' which doesn't define any working<br>
&gt; &gt; hours at all. If you define some working hours, or use the 'Base'<br>
&gt; &gt; calendar instead it should work.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Thanx. That was one missing link. I had totally overlooked the view for<br>
&gt; specifying that. Your email got me on the right track.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Fixing the working hours makes the warnings/errors in the log to disappear.<br>
&gt; However, my four tasks (task1.1, task2.1,task2.2 and task2.3 ) are still<br>
&gt; scheduled in parallel (meaning that "vl" would need to work 400% in order<br>
&gt; to comply with the suggested plan while the limit is set to 100%).<br>
&gt; In View-&gt;Resource Assignments it only shows 8h a day.<br>
It seems to work here.<br>

&gt; &gt; Sorry, but there must be something fundamental in kplato I have missed. \
I<br> &gt; &gt; hope someone might be able to help.<br>
&gt; &gt; I have made one resource(person), one calendar and a few tasks which \
are<br> &gt; &gt; all assigned to the one resource.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I then expect that when I hit the "Calculate" button that kplato would<br>
&gt; &gt; schedule the tasks so that they don't overlap (the one resource I have<br>
&gt; &gt; should only work 8 hours a day...). However this doesn't work.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; When I hit the "Calculate" button I instead get cryptic messages in the<br>

&gt; &gt; "Could not  match effort. Want 16h0m got 0h0m"<br>

&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Clicking on view-&gt;Resource assignments shows 0.0 in total for my \
