Upgraded my version of Mint, which has... Evolution 3.28.5-0ubuntu0.18.04.1
Prior to upgrading Linux Mint, my evolution backup script contained the following... #!/bin/sh export DISPLAY=:0.0 rm /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/5.tar.gz mv /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/4.tar.gz /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/5.tar.gz mv /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/3.tar.gz /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/4.tar.gz mv /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/2.tar.gz /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/3.tar.gz mv /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/1.tar.gz /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/2.tar.gz sleep 5 cd ~ /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-backup --restart --backup /mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/1.tar.gz It is set to run three times a week and needed the export command to get the shutdown to occur. However, on those occasions I am now waking up after the overnight backup, to find two copies of Evolution running. With or without the display export. The results form the script are as follows... michelle@main-desktop:~$ ./evo-backup.sh evolution-backup-Message: 09:05:55.487: evolution --quit evolution-backup-Message: 09:05:55.886: rm /home/michelle/.local/share/evolution/.running rm: cannot remove '/home/michelle/.local/share/evolution/.running': No such file or directory evolution-backup-Message: 09:05:55.888: dconf dump /org/gnome/evolution-data-server/ >/home/michelle/.local/share/evolution/backup-restore-dconf-eds.ini evolution-backup-Message: 09:05:55.892: dconf dump /org/gnome/evolution/ >/home/michelle/.local/share/evolution/backup- restore-dconf-evo.ini evolution-backup-Message: 09:05:55.908: cd /home/michelle && tar chf - .local/share/evolution .config/evolution evolution.dir | gzip > '/mnt/tank/users/michelle/backup/mail/1.tar.gz' tar: .local/share/evolution: file changed as we read it evolution-backup-Message: 09:08:07.003: rm /home/michelle/evolution.dir So evolution-backup is reporting the "quit" to evolution, but it doesn't appear to be listening. Also, there never appears to be a .running file in .local so I'm not sure what's happening. I've tried dropping to a command prompt and just issuing... evolution --quit ... but it doesn't respond and stays running. Any advice please?
