[Evolution] Evolution Contacts recurring error
Hello, I'm a old school programmer just starting with Linux Mint and loving it. I installed Evolution and during the original install it had a few errors but otherwise works (i.e., the Outlook.com Email and Calendar work great!). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a few times, but it seems that error message just won;t go away, AND I cannot access the Contacts. The red box/error message that opens when I switch to Contacts within Evolution reads as follows (the underlined part has been masked): --- 8< --- Failed to connect address book “___...@outlook.com : Recipient Cache” Unknown error --- AND --- Unable to open address book “Contacts” This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable. Detailed error message: Unable to connect to “Contacts”: No such source for UID “_” --- 8< --- I search quite a few hours and am at a total loss as to what to try next. I am so close I'd appreciate any help/suggestions. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Evolution Contacts recurring error
I also see when selecting the Personal Contacts: --- 8< --- Unable to open address book “Personal” This address book cannot be opened. Please check that the p ath /home/john/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution/data/evolution/addressbook/sys tem-address-book exists and that permissions are set to access it.

If that is literally the script you have, then there's a syntax error after both of the '>>' redirects, but you say it works when called with Ctrl-Y so it's hard to diagnose by guessing what it really looks like. Please send it again using the Preformatted drop-down menu item in the composer. I would also try it with only the 'echo', i.e. without the espeak call, and see what happens. poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Closing and reopen seems to be a problem, some processes related to flatpak are not finished. I did not report this, because I was going to keep an eye on this to be sure. I hope that help.
