The first thing to check is that it is not later than the appointment time when you call planner-appt-show-alerts. If it is later, no appointment will be scheduled, of course. Second, if your diary file really looks like this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Schedue Monday @12:00 lunch ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ as you say in the original post, then there might be some problem with the lines with lots of tildes [that's the ~ character], and the one that looks like "* Schedue", since these are not in the standard diary file format. Try removing everything except the "Monday @12:00 lunch" line. Third, it is possible that it doesn't work to use the normal diary file for such cyclic appointments. If neither of the above explain the problem, try putting the appointment in the default planner-cyclic-diary-file file; i.e., remove the setting of that variable from your configuration and put the appointment into ~/.diary.cyclic-tasks.
