I can confirm this in a migration to 2.3.2 from 2.28.3 on my Ubuntu 10.04 system. The files in the old .evolution tree were converted/moved to the new .local/share/evolution tree but only the first local Address Book worked.
To sum up, only the first "On This Computer" address book sources entry was converted correctly with the relative URI, the remaining Address Books still had the file path to the old .evolution file path left in their definitions. Manually removing the old "uri="file:....." entries using the gconf- editor on the /apps/evolution/addressbook/sources key fixed the problem and then allowed the data in those extra Address Books to appear. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761037 Title: Evolution failed to properly migrate Local Contacts during 2.32 (Natty) Upgrade Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool: Incomplete Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: evolution After upgrading to Natty following the Beta 1 release, my local contacts were not correctly migrated. After the upgrade I could not access two of my three addressbooks. The "Personal" addressbook was accessible, however my older "Palm Contacts" (legacy data) and "Autocompleted" (used by the plugin) did not migrate. They had entries in Evolution, but resulted in URI error below. This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable. Detailed error message: Invalid source Initially thought was related to bug 752468, but I know now is a result of this incorrect migration. Looking at the URI/sources I had the following entries with the broken addressbooks/contact lists. imac@repo:~$ gconftool-2 --get /apps/evolution/addressbook/sources [<?xml version="1.0"?> <group uid="1227068757.7280.2@repo" name="Google" base_uri="google://" readonly="no"/> ,<?xml version="1.0"?> <group uid="1227068757.7280.3@repo" name="WebDAV" base_uri="webdav://" readonly="no"/> ,<?xml version="1.0"?> <group uid="1227068758.7280.4@repo" name="On This Computer" base_uri="local:" readonly="no"><source uid="[email protected]" name="Autocompleted" uri="file:///home/imac/.evolution/addressbook/local/[email protected]" relative_uri="[email protected]"><properties><property name="use-in-contacts-calendar" value="0"/></properties></source><source uid="[email protected]" name="Personal" relative_uri="system"><properties><property name="use-in-contacts-calendar" value="0"/><property name="remember_password" value="false"/></properties></source><source uid="[email protected]" name="Palm Contacts" uri="file:///home/imac/.evolution/addressbook/local/[email protected]" relative_uri="[email protected]"><properties><property name="use-in-contacts-calendar" value="0"/><property name="pilot-sync" value="true"/></properties></source></group> ,<?xml version="1.0"?> <group uid="1227068758.7280.6@repo" name="On LDAP Servers" base_uri="ldap://" readonly="no"/> ,<?xml version="1.0"?> <group uid="[email protected]" name="CouchDB" base_uri="couchdb://" readonly="no"><source uid="[email protected]" name="Ubuntu One" relative_uri="127.0.0.1"><properties><property name="couchdb_instance" value="user"/><property name="remember_password" value="false"/></properties></source></group> ] I know from reviewing this related bug comment that the above sources (uri=) were not correctly modified, except for the "Personal" where uri="system". https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=632962#c7 based on this comment I executed a python script designed to fix this problem, found here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/gnome/howtos/gnome-2.32-upgrade.xml The fix-addressbook.py script worked after I changed the permissions for execution, and by modifying the first line to match the local python2.7 interpreter path.
