Hi,
I have the same problem, so I have tried to configure GOA (added a
google account, disabled all but Contacts, closed GOA and restarted
evolution) but the error still appears; is there any further step I
should consider to make my google contacts re-appear in evo (v. 3.12.11
on Ubuntu 15.04)?

Thank you very much,
Andrea
