Rodrigo - Ran a few more experiments:
On the netbook. 1. Opened Evolution. Clicked on Contacts and started a stopwatch. When I got the "unable to open database" message (at approximately 27 seconds), I quickly cleared it, clicked on Personal and back to U1. Every time I got an error, I repeated the process. Got a total of 5 error messages and then, after a total of just over 90 seconds, the contacts appeared. 2. Knowing that in test 1 the contacts appeared after 90 seconds, I opened Evolution, clicked Contacts. When error appeared at about 30 seconds I waited another minute. Cleared error, clicked to Personal and back to U1. Contacts appeared. Based on the above, I ran test 1 from above on my VBOX. I got the error at approximately 27 seconds. Immediately cleared, clicked to personal and back. At 32 seconds the contacts appeared. Apparently it is taking too long for the couchdb to be converted to the Evolution contact format and timing out, giving the error message. However, the process continues. Even if the error is cleared, the contacts do not appear unless (1) the entire process has completed, (2) you leave and come back to U1 contacts. Were I running on my dual core desktop instead of a limited VBOX or on a higher powered laptop, I'd not see the problem. However, with 781 contacts both systems have problems. Why I got the other error on VBOX the first time, I do not know, but I've seen it several times and believe I've seen it on the laptop. My netbook is an ASUS with a 1.66GHz Atom N450, 1 gig of RAM, and a 250 gig drive. My VBOX is assigned a half-gig of RAM but is running on a desktop with an AMD 5600+ 2.81GHz dual core processor (it was fast when I built it!) I suggest that someone test using a large number of contacts on a small netbook to figure out how to inform the user that it is indeed working and to prevent the time-out errors. Even better would be to optimize the code to speed the process. Thanks for you continuing effort to make all of this work. I really appreciate it!

On the VBOX install, it seems you have a problem with gnome-keyring. Is your keyring ok?

Status in “evolution-couchdb” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: evolution When I open Evolution, The Ubuntu One Address Book takes a very long time to load. I sometimes get various errors but it appears that the biggest problem is that the system times out because it takes too long to convert the desktopcouchdb file into the Evolution display format. I am running a netbook and have 770+ entries in my address book. Error messages include "address book failed to load" and "Address Book not available." However, restarting Evolution a few times usually finally gets the address book up.
