Could you try to run the following commands: evolution --force-shutdown env GROUPWISE_DEBUG=1 /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-data-server-1.6 >& /tmp/groupwise.out evolution
I suggest inspecting /tmp/groupwise.out before attaching it here and check for personal information. Sébastien suggested it might be http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347987 -- Evolution groupwise support crashes often https://launchpad.net/bugs/41406 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
