Re: [Bug 247067] Re: Evolution fails to launch
OK, this was strange. Out of the blue, Evolution popped up a handful of appointment alerts. So apparently part of the application was running in the background. I decided to attempt to launch Evolution and it launched correctly. It even showed the folder subscription that I had selected that seemed to be the initial source of the problems. I've since disabled those subscriptions in case those were the source of the problem. I don't know yet if it will continue to work, but for now, it is working. I'll let you know if the situation changes.

The Exchange module is the reason that I am using Evolution. Otherwise
I might as well use Thunderbird. Am I the only person with this problem?

This is the piece of code that drives it:

int i;
for (i = 0; i nresults; i++)
e2k_result_clear (results[i]);

I understand, from your last comment, that you are running 2.22.3.1
now. Is that correct?
Also -- you may probably bypass this error if you uninstall evolution-

Re: [Bug 247067] Re: Evolution fails to launch
I tried to start with a new user and I had the same problem. I then enabled the 'Proposed' repository so that I could update to the latest version. That doesn't seem to have helped either. Does evolution store settings someplace other than at /home/username/.evolution? I've tried to delete my '.evolution' folder and it seems to put all of the old settings back just like they were, but I can't figure out where it is pulling from. I've given up on repairing it. I thought I'd just start over but I can't even do that. I tried to purge evolution from my computer but it held some settings somewhere that I can't find.

Also, please be aware that we will be releasing Evolution 2.22.3.1 in a few (and it might already be available on the Hardy-proposed repositories), and it might be worth it to check if you still experience this issue on 2.22.3.1.

[Bug 247067] Re: Evolution fails to launch
I installed the Evolution dbg package and reran the backtrace using GDB. It seemed to work a bit better this time. I've attached the backtrace. I hope that there is something in there that you can use. I did notice that the console generated an error message when I launched Evolution about being unable to connect to subscribed folders. That was the last thing that I changed before I started having problems, so that is a likely suspect. I tried to subscribe to a public folder on our exchange server. But it didn't seem to work. I thought that I unsubscribed before restarting Evolution, but maybe I missed something. Evolution started using GDB, but it would not allow me to access the Exchange Server. My Gmail account appeared to be working though. ** Attachment added: GDB backtrace with Evolution-exchange debug package installed http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15969814/gdb-evolution.txt -- Evolution fails to launch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247067 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 172613] Preview pane freezes
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evolution The Evolution email Preview Pane repeatedly freezes when it displays an email with any sort of image or HTML embedded. It doesn't matter where the email comes from. The rest of the program still works. I can double click on the email and it opens and displays fine, but the preview pane is stuck on a previous email. Even if I delete the email, it remains displayed. The only solution that I've found so far is to kill the application and restart. Attempts to cleanly shut down the application cause the application to freeze.

[Bug 126225] Re: e. does update mail in preview view
Symptoms are exactly as original poster describes, except that it does not resolve itself in -2-5 minutes. I must restart the application. Selecting File/Quit does not shutdown the application though. The window becomes gray and remains that way indefinitely. I've let it sit for 30-40 minutes. I use 'PS aux|grep evolution to locate still running applications and kill them one at a time until the window closes. Then restart the application.
