I know this has been posted before, but I didn't see any real or satisfactory solution so I'm asking myself. This problem stopped me at 0.99 and 0.99.1, so I gave up. Seeing 1.0 announced I thought I'd try again.
Slackware 8. I've installed all required packages as defined in the README, including those distributed alongside the evolution-1.0.tar.gz. Everything was built from source, with --prefix=/opt/gnome. Upon starting evolution, in the xterm I get: evolution-shell-WARNING **: Cannot access Bonobo/ConfigDatabase on wombat: (IDL:OAF/GeneralError:1.0) and in a popup window I get: Cannot Initialize the Ximian Evolution shell: Configuration Database not found. ldd shows no reference to the mozilla libs for *anything* in /opt/gnome/bin/* so I assume that the previous post regarding this doesn't apply....and since I don't have the moz libs/includes installed, I'm not surprised. (mozilla is self-contained) What does concern me is that nobody seems to have any idea where this problem is manifested, nor how to solve it. How can this be? Surely one of the developers has encountered this, and traced it! BTW - Running evolution as root or a regular user makes no difference; same error. I'd be glad to assist in any troubleshooting...I'd really like to actually see evo work. Thanks, Andrew -- Andrew Green - SecureTrendz, Inc.
