[Evolution] Setup Problem
Hello, Somewhere playing with Evolution and Ximian Desktop and Red Carpet I broke something. Now when I start Evolution I get: evolution-shell-WARNING **: Cannot access Bonobo/ConfigDatabase on wombat: (IDL:OAF/GeneralError:1.0) I have no idea what I did. Can anyone help me out?

RE: [Evolution] Setup Problem
Hello Gil, Thanks! That actually fixed my Evolution. I had several libs missing but they all seemed to be contained in Mozilla. I installed the package of mozilla 0.92 that's included with RH7.2, because Ximians Mozilla 0.95 package seems to be broken (the postinstall script exists with code 127 or somesuch).

In my case it was libnspr4.so I think. In any case, I reinstalled mozilla and the libraries re-appeared. However, after getting through that problem I'm not at pretty much the same point except that I'm getting InterfaceNotFound error instead of GeneralError. Sadness.

RE: [Evolution] Ximian Connector?
Hello Chris, What's the problem here? It isn't like this is the first bit of commercial software for Linux or UNIX. -gasp- what a revelation: A company that is in it for the money! For me, the Connector is a lifesaver and I only wish they'd announced a little earlier while I was still on a wild goose chase for a Linux - Outlook/Exchange Calendaring interoperatibility (sp) solution. $69 to hook up a Linux machine to an existing network is still a big money saver for corporations, heck, a license of Windows 9x costs more than that. You'd save boatloads on security alone. I can easily imagine this to be a big market. I know that *I* will bug my boss to get me a license so I can get rid of my Win2k Workstation. As for the GPL vs. Proprietary issue, what's the big deal? How about a forked version, or a plugin or something like that. It's all been done before and we still have a free OS, don't we? Just because the EvoEx Connector is proprietary doesn't mean the OS - or even Evo for that matter - isn't. What good is Linux on the Workstation if it cannot talk to the rest of the world? Now if Ximian dumps support/development of Free Evo in favor of Proprietary Evo, that's when you can start to get all bitchy. ;-) No offense meant by any of what I say.

It seems that even Evolution doesn't, from the examples of discussion on here that I've seen - for example, our calendaring at the moment is p2p, right? How will Evo(GPL) handle this when Evo(Proprietary) appears? Is it really planned to have a version of iCal that wanders around client-client as well as a version that talks to servers? It all sounds a bit, um, icky. And I'm guessing that the development of the connector isn't going to be at all publically discussed. And I'm a little frustrated that the mail client that I thought was this huge effort on the part of the community to write the app that's going to be a /huge/ part in bringing Linux to the desktop is only going to be the answer to Outlook in a Yeah, use Evolution. It's cool. Oh, but you have to pay for Exchange interoperability. way, and that no-one mentioned this before. Feels almost like we have to start again, to find another way of arguing Linux is free. You can do _this_ with it. to our bosses. Anyway. Someone had to rant. I think the more fair argument is that, well, /I/ haven't put any code into Evo. And most of us haven't. And there's no way in hell it'd be here if Ximian hadn't hired people and all of this, so it's at least justified. But enough. I'm off to try and get my 1.0 install alive again. - ~C, a little disillusioned. -- $a=printf.net; Chris Ball | chris@void.$a | www.$a | finger: chris@$a As to luck, there's the old miners' proverb: Gold is where you find it. ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
RE: [Evolution] Ximian Connector
Hello Ximian, I'll second that, if this is a possibility please get in touch with me and I'll bug my superiours until they cave.

In another week or so, we'll be forced onto Exchange 2000 here where I work. I'd personally be more than willing to pay the $70 up-front if possible to get development copies file bugs against it. Just thought I'd offer, since more testers could be useful.

[Evolution] Appointments with Outlook
Hello People, My advanced apologies if I am just missing something obvious or have been avoiding hitting the correct URL in my research. Here goes my problem: I am trying to make Evolution talk to my Outlook in regards to appointments. The Evolution Features page lists this as possible, but all I get on my outlook are emails with files named calendar.ics attached. MS Outlook seems pretty much unable to handle these. I'd be grateful for any help. (Version of Evolution: 0.99.1, installed via Red Carpet on RedHat 7.0.)
