Is this still an issue for anyone now that Thunderbird 60.5.1 is the currently supported version? ** Changed in: thunderbird (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1187724 Title: thunderbird crashes at startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1187724/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Tim, Thank you very much for your fast answer, I didn't see it until yesterday as I did not receive any notification. Thus, I tried your solution and I can't tell how happy I am as it works perfectly well now with the installation of "nscd". We are using also an LDAP server through pam_ldap. I hope this bug will be resolved for other users, as it was not so easy to find this thread...and so the solution. Again thank you for your help, Christian. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1187724 Title: thunderbird crashes at startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1187724/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1187724] Re: thunderbird crashes at startup
Finally - I have the solution (at least for me!). We are using LDAP for user accounts via pam_ldap. I did not have nscd (name service cache daemon) installed. Although it makes no difference to anything else, I did try installing it and bingo! thunderbird works again. This is still clearly a bug - but at least I have a workaround. Could this be your problem too Christian?

Hi, I have exactly the same problem i Ubuntu 13.04 after upgrade and tried what you have done with the same results. So I am quite desperate as I want all my emails back with all the folders. I have been able to retrieve my Inbox in "Evolution" but not my folders. So does anybody has an idea ?

[Bug 1187724] Re: thunderbird crashes at startup
Today I tried something new: Log out and back into X. Kill all processes that I owned except X server and terminal (so killed dbus, gconfd and all manner of things). mv'ed my *entire* home directory into a subdir called TEMP/ taking care to include all . (DOT) subdirs Started thunderbird - it still crashed! And yet, it runs fine as another user displaying on my X server. This is weird - the only context left for it is my UID, groups and envvars. And none of them are that weird. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1187724 Title: thunderbird crashes at startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1187724/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
