ok this is to damn weird. I recovered in hardcopy my addressbook by
uninstalling evolution thru redcarpet and reinstalling the preview
version. it saw them fine. I printed them out. then i uninstalled the
preview version thru redcarpet and then reinstalled the snapshot thru
redcarpet. everytime after shutting down evolution in this process i ran
killev. the first time i opened the snapshot of evolution back up my
addressess were there. and i could open them individually. i then shut
down evolution and restarted it and they were gone again. very weird. if
you have any questions or suggestions im still all ears.

PS at least i have my addresses :) and before anyone tells me i shouldnt
keep mission critacal info in a beta software, i allready know. :) lol
so sue me ;)
I use it every day for all my email and contacts and calendaring and i
love it. so to you guys who actually code on it. keep up the great job.
I would love one day to be able to go to some of my clients and replace
windows systems with linux boxes and this is a major step in that
direction.

Thanks Chris:
I did what you said and it recreated the addressbook.db file however it
recreated it with the wrong permissions. I then changed the permissions
to the old ones and ran evolution. the contacts component crashes now
when i open it. im not sure what to try next.any more help would be
welcome.
Also thank you Xav:
I tried your solution also, both before and after i did the above and it
did not work.
killev killall wombat ...
actually killev seems to kill wombat with out having to kill it
seperatly
again any more suggestions would be welcome.

I have lost my contacts. I have evolution-0.10.99-snap.ximian.200106080800
installed
when i do file addressbook.db i get addressbook.db: Berkeley DB 1.85 (Hash,
version 2, native byte-order)
i have read the faq and tried following the instructions there but keep getting
an error
here is command i run :
db_dump185 addressbook.db.backup | db_load addressbook.db
and here is error
It looks like addressbook.db already exists.
Try moving addressbook.db to addressbook.db.temp and then doing
db_dump185 addressbook.db.temp | db_load addressbook.db
Thanks,
Chris
