Evolution exchange connector (2.11.x) is still quite stable for Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2000 (if any) users. Its getting better and better in every releases that we make.

We have heard about it little long back and I personally have been following their development and milestones closely. All strategic decisions are taken after careful evaluation and as the current Exchange connector has evolved over the years to the extent that now it can connect out of the box for most of the user scenarios - any decision to adapt to new framework will have to undergo a series of brainstorming. Couple of weeks time is for us to arrive at a plan/roadmap and publish it for the hacker/user community that are interested in Evolution. This roadmap will not throw-away the development of Evolution-exchange connector, rather serve as a place holder for openchange hackers to work closely with our team/community. Once the plugin evolves and stable enough to take the place of Evolution-exchange connector - a decision will be made based on user feedbacks. > Frankly I don't see much commitment here to get this done ... why is > that?

If you would have closely watched the development of Evolution-exchange connector atleast for the last three releases, 2.6.x, 2.8.x and 2.10.x - it has become quite stable and getting better and better with every release. We have fixed loads of issues - both functionality and performance wise and are committed to do better. As of this moment, I am collecting some data-points on my recent optimization work that will make most of our evolution-exchange users stand on their toes and even out-performs MS Outlook. > Hopefully this open exchange lib will provide so traction, quickly too > it is ridiculous that I have to have a windows vm and Outlook in > order to view a shared calendar or function even reasonably well with > exchange. > Evolution does support shared calendar and public folder subscription/other user folder subscription are the areas that we have worked extensively in the recent past and are quite stable now. 2.11.5 will be one of the rock-solid releases in the history of Evolution-exchange connector.

And, both are in active development are good enough for everyone to try it. Above all, its the power of F/OSS - "choice" - one is not bound to a particular product/software. If the question is about Evolution embracing Brutus/Openchange/implement support for MS Exchange Web Service protocol (the new interface that would replace the current webDAV interface), I would say it is too early to comment now and let them evolve - in terms of stability/performance/feature support/user base. ;-) Thanks, V.

Most of the time, E2K_DEBUG traces are used for verifying/debugging server communication part and not crashes. If you have debug symbols installed, bug-buddy would be able to get a better stacktrace for you, which you can use to file a bug or mail to us for further investigation. HTH, V.

Re: [Evolution] Very serious problem with evo-exchange 2.11.5
Hi Smith, Would you mind removing your .evolution/mail/exchange and .evolution/exchange directories and try 2.11.5? This is to just verify whether the internal-migration happened successfully or not. Well, the first time when 2.11.5 runs, it migrates the existing summary to the new summary format. The performance improvement is based on this migration. If you try with cache removed, the first time it will be like what it was in previous versions and after that, when evolution is restarted you will be able to notice the difference. Thanks, V.

Re: [Evolution] Very serious problem with evo-exchange 2.11.5
Hi Paul/others, I have cooked up a patch for addressing this issue. After a lot of code reading/MS KB articles, this patch should be able to address the issue of mails getting disappeared. Paul: Will it be possible for you to run a quick test on this patch and report back? The patch can be downloaded from: http://people.freedesktop.org/~vvaradan/misc/evo/missing-mails.patch TIA, V.

Re: [Evolution] Exchange Connection Problem
Hi Steve, Can you attach a log with E2K_DEBUG=4 ?(4 gives more info.) Seems, the authentication is successful. Were you able to connect successfully in the past? If so, which version was it? Also, check with your System Administrators whether BPROPFIND has been disabled in your OWA configuration, if so, request them to enable it. HTH, V.

Would you mind trying the following? 1) Kill any running "gpilotd" instance. 2) Run "gpilotd" from a terminal. This way you can see debug messages on the screen. 3) Configure EAddress conduit the way you want and make sure you don't have other non-evolution conduits enabled for syncing. This is to narrow down the issue. 4) Mail us the result with the screen dump.

But should I change it to 501:501 ? You don't have to actually change the ownership etc. As per your first mail, you have mentioned that you are using /dev/pilot as your pilot device and that it points to /dev/ttyS0. The device node actually gets created at the time of hotsync. So, I am not sure whether hardcoding ownerships etc will help. Does pilot-xfer command works for you on /dev/pilot?

Yes, I am interested in knowing about the bug. (A bugzilla bugid would be more helpful). Well, I would say pilot-link 0.11.8 and gnome-pilot 2.0.12 are a pretty stable combination, that worked for most of the cases. Yes, I agree that the development in gnome-pilot is not agressive, and that's because, it is functional and reached a stage where newer technologies/framework like Opensync can take over it. AFAICT, many of the gnome-pilot bugs in bugzilla are already fixed, but, not marked closed in bugzilla. I use evolution + gnome-pilot, frequently, to sync data with my Tungsten T5 and above all, evolution 2.5.3+ can sync against exchange as well as groupwise calendars/tasks/contacts. As Nigel pointed out, Yes, there are problems when you try with pre-releases of pilot-link. However, the current-CVS-head gnome-pilot works pretty good with 0.12.x pre-release of pilot-link. gnome-pilot, as such, is pretty stable than opensync, w.r.t palm syncing. V.

"Cradle" is the device file that gnome-pilot should hook for receiving/sending events from/to the pilot device. In Linux, it will typically be /dev/ttyUSB* in case of a USB connector or /dev/ttyS* in case of a serial connector. Also, unless and otherwise, you press the hotsync button, the device-file will not be created. A sample writeup for configuring USB Palm in FC3 is given in the following link. http://www.clasohm.com/blog/one-entry?entry_id=12096 (the information provided can be applicable accross distribution with minimal changes) > Do I run the kpilot hotsync, then have to run > the gnomepilot one seperately and how, from inside Evolution? or will it > run fine through kpilot? kpilot seems to say it has an option to use > evolution conduits to hotsync with a Palm, but as far as I can tell, > hasn't been. > I have not tried kpilot + evolution. Evolution's "Edit->Synchronization options" invokes gpilotd-control-applet which in-turn starts the gnome-pilot that runs like a daemon. So, you don't normally required to start anything else, but evolution. HTH, V. Varadhan > Very confusing sometimes, but I am willing to try suggestions.

Unless the user turn it off, once the user logs in, beagle is run by default on SuSE 10. And Beagle is known to grow big and sometimes huge, in terms of memory consumption, depending on the user's data. If you use Beagle, make sure you update it to the latest release.

What version of evolution/gnome-pilot/pilot-link do you have? *gpilotd-control-applet* is the one that is used to setup pilots in gnome. Also, check whether /share/gnome-pilot/devices.xml has an entry for Palm Zire 31. If not, please try adding one and restarting *gpilotd*. HTH, V.

Hi Oliver, Make sure you have the following files in: /share/gnome-pilot/conduits/e-address-2.2.conduit /share/gnome-pilot/conduits/e-todo-2.2.conduit /share/gnome-pilot/conduits/e-calendar-2.2.conduit and these files, point to right .so in them.

Varadhan >>> Oliver Sampson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/09/06 12:45 AM >>> Howdy, I'm having some trouble opening up the Pilot conduits under Gnome in Fedora Core 4. They simply aren't listed. I found what looks like the files to be included here: /usr/lib/evolution/2.2/conduits /usr/lib/evolution/2.2/conduits/libeaddress_conduit.so /usr/lib/evolution/2.2/conduits/libetodo_conduit.so /usr/lib/evolution/2.2/conduits/libecalendar_conduit.so but they aren't showing up under Tools->Pilot Settings->Conduits. So I looked to the Help file and I get this: "After your computer and your Palm OS device are communicating, select the conduits you want under the Pilot Conduits section of the Control Center." Well, I don't have a Control Center in my Menu system, but I can run it from the command line with gnome-control-center. And once I run it there's nothing called "pilot conduits," even though gnome-pilot and gnome-pilot-conduits RPMs are installed. (Is this the same program that's executed from Evolution->Tools?) So. How do I get the Evolution conduits to show up under the Tools->Pilot Setting->Conduits, so I can enable them for syncing to my Palm Pilot? Many thanks, -- Oliver Sampson Support Indie Music!

However, I think by "Category" you mean "Calendar", isn't it? Anyway, both the conduits in turn use the same file (since, both are calendar conduits and whose business logic are same) to write configuration. This is why you are seeing the most-recent configuration being selected for both the conduits. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D201167 is a more related bug to what you seem to be trying with evolution + pilot.

For example: Event A is in calendar 1, Event B is in calendar 2 and Event C is in calendar 3. When multiple calendar syncing is allowed, all three calendars will have all the three events. Also, there is no way to maintain "specific calendar" information in Palm devices to detect the source-calendar of the event. One way to simulate "multi-calendar" syncing is to assign categories to the calendar events. Categories gets synced correctly. HTH, V.

Re: [Evolution] Subscribing to an Exchange shared calendar
Hi Tom, Can you access your GC server from outside firewall? Evolution gets the required domain/host info from the GC server and then tries to connect to it using the host name. If the host-name doesn't get resolved, it shows "Generic Error". Check your DNS setup or add that ip/host-name to your /etc/hosts file and then try subscribing to other user's folder/calendar.
