[Evolution] [evo2.8] Can't search everywhere in Addressbook, and can't sign with GPG anymore
Hi ! I just upgraded from Evo 2.6.3 to 2.8 (self compiled, on Mandriva 2006). It seems that there are 3 regressions : 1. I can't search in every Addressbook field anymore. When I try, Evo always returns the whole addressbook, and not contacts matching the search 2. I can't sign with PGP anymore - encrypting is right, but when I want to sign, Evo asks for the passphrase, I type it, then Evo display an empty window, titled "Evolution Error" where I only can click OK. 3. There is no command line options anymore. No mailto, no --debug= , nothing... And evolution-2.8 --help displays only the GTG, Gnome and Gconf options, and not the Evo options. Has somebody else noticed theses bugs ? Nicolas (Strasbourg, France) ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Problem compiling
You have to compile evolution-data-server BEFORE evolution-2.8. And then, type export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig Then configure and make evolution-2.8 Hope this helps.

[Evolution] error when compiling on Mandriva 2007.1: db2omf: Could not construct the OMF subject element
Hi !
I'm trying to compile the last Evolution 2.10.1 on Mandriva 2007
Spring (aka 2007.1).
./configure is OK.
But at the "make" step, for evolution-2.10.1, I have this error :

I don't understand these errors with xsltproc or db2omf... I manage to
compile on Mandriva 2007.0, but now, it doesn't work anymore on
Mandriva 2007.1. I believe this a something to do with Mandriva, and
not with Evo, but if someone has a clue, that will help me !
Thank you for helping,

[Evolution] strange pin in front of some appointments

Hi ! No, it is not the exclamation mark for "Important", and there is no category for these appointments, and this is not the icon for the recurrence... This is a real pin. I thought it was an icon for indicating that the appointment cannot be drag-and-dropped, but actually, I can drag-and-drop it.

[Evolution] Adressbook crashes when "searching in all fields"
Hi ! I just installed Evo 2.12.1 and EDS 1.12.1, on Mandriva 2008, but the error happens with Evo 2.12.0 and ADS 1.12.0 from Mandriva's RPMs. All is working fine, but I cannot search in my addressbook anymore : it crashes when I want to "search in all fields" : I write my request, I select "search in all field" (I don't know the english words for this command), then I hit Enter. And then it says "Evolution addressbook has quit unexpectidly, the contacts will be available anymore only when Evolution restars (or something like that, but in good french !)" My file addressbook.db is the same I use since years (perhaps Evo 2.6), it has grown to 435 contacts, and it is the first time it happens. If I start a new addressboook from scratch with one or two contacts, the "search in all fields" fonction works fine - so I think there is something wrong with my old good addressbook.db and EDS 1.12.x I have tried to export my addressbook as a .vcf file, then to export it again on a clean Evo install : same error... So I do believe there is something wrong, but I don't know what. Any help would be greatly appreciate, because I'm using Evo for my professionnal daily work !

[Evolution] addressbook.db : is EDS 2.24.3 compatible with EDS 2.24.2 ?
Hi ! I have uninstalled properly the old Evo 2.24.2.1/EDS 2.24.2, compiled and installed EDS 2.24.3, restarted Gnome, then compiled and installed Evo 2.24.3. When upgrading from Evo/EDS to another, I used to save my addressbook.db file, and then to restore it manually in my addressbook/local/system directory. It has always worked well (since Evo 2.0, perhaps even before, because I'm using Evo almost since the very beginning), until now. Now, it seems that the addressbook.db (that worked fine with Evo 2.23.2.1) is crashing EDS. Everytime I want to display my addressbook, Evo says that its address book has unexpectedly quit, and that the contacts will be available again after a restart. But even after that, Evo address book displays nothing, and sometimes the memo and calendar are crashing too with it... There is no particular debug messages when launching Evo from the command line. But there are error messages when running EDS through gdb (complete gdb log here : http://pastebin.com/m6cae08b5 ) : (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: libdb error: page 13: illegal page type or format in server_log_handler (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: libdb error: PANIC: Argument invalide in server_log_handler (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: libdb error: /home/nico/.evolution/addressbook/local/system/addressbook.db: pgin failed for page 13 in server_log_handler (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: libdb error: fatal region error detected; run recovery in server_log_handler (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: e_book_backend_file_search: error building list: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery book_view file uref [Thread 0x44e40950 (LWP 25131) exited] (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: libdb error: fatal region error detected; run recovery in server_log_handler (evolution-data-server-2.24:25100): libebookbackend-WARNING **: e_book_backend_file_search: error getting the cursor for /home/nico/.evolution/addressbook/local/system/addressbook.db Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

I have perhaps an explanation : the EDS 2.24.2 was a Mandriva RPM, and I don't with wich version of libdb they compiled it. I just know that libdb-devel 4.6.21 was installed on my system. And I have noticed that the libdb provided in the new vanilla EDS source package was 4.1.25. So, if the Mandriva' EDS has been compiled with libdb 4.6.21, I can imagine that my addressbook.db, saved using this libdb 4.6.21 last mounth, was unreadable by the libdb 4.1.25 of the official sources. But that is just a guess. Anyway, I have found a work around : open the addressbook.db with another computer where Evo/EDS still work, save it as a .vcf file, then import it on the new installation. Some fields are not displaying, I have to open the contact, then re-save it again to make the field appear in the column, but that is still a good workaround, for me.

I have so much times replied by mistake to the sender, instead to the list… So Evolution is better than Gmail.

Re: [Evolution] connect Evolution 2.28 to MS exchange 2007 on Fedora 12

The insttiute's exchange server >>> does not open imap port. i you have sucessful connection, please >>> share with me I have a successful connection, but my compagny is using Exchange 2003 ; and the evolution-exchange RPM of Mandriva 2010 says "Currently, only Exchange 2000 and 2003 are supported". So, it seems that Exchange 2007 is not supported at all ; I think you have to stay with VirtualBox, or use the bloody Outlook Web Access in Firefox.
