Hi,
it looks like the 'org.freedesktop.secrets' D-Bus service doesn't start
properly. It's not the evolution issue, it's an issue with that
process. What process it is can be found at
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.secrets.service
which states here (Fedora 24):
Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --foreground --components=secrets
Your distribution can have this differently.
I would:
a) verify that there is no such process running (gnome-keyring-daemon
from the Exec line above) or it is not stuck (hard to guess from
the list of running processes)
b) try to run the command with all arguments from a terminal, whether
it'll work or crash or simply whether it'll claim anything
c) try to kill that running process, thus it's restarted when
the evolution is run (or any other process which requires it)
d) restart the machine (the last resort, maybe you tried already,
but the restart runs the service from fresh, which can help).
Bye,
Milan
