[Evolution] Evolution 2.32.2 not sending or receiving pop3 mail
Hi Guys, I am running Evolution 2.32.2 on a Fedora Core 14 distro which has stopped sending or receiving email after the last yum update (I have a list of the packages updated if anybody wants to see them). This is the second time this has happened and I eventually got around the issue by reinstalling the distro. What was really annoying is that with all the updates applied to the Fedora Core 14 desktop, evolution worked fine, whereas it had failed to work after the updates on the previous install to get to the same level of files. After the update was done, evolution quickly flashes the checking mail dialogue but does not send or receive email. A tcpdump on the desktop shows no traffic on ports 25 or 110 during the send/receive operation. The only errors I can find are from the console when starting evolution from the CLI (evolution:4164): GLib-CRITICAL **: the GVariant format string `(u)' has a type of `(u)' but the given value has a type of `(s)' (evolution:4164): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_variant_get: assertion `valid_format_string (format_string, TRUE, value)' failed (evolution:4164): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_propagate_error: assertion `src != NULL' failed (evolution:4164): camel-WARNING **: CamelTcpStreamRaw::connect() reported failure without setting its GError (evolution:4164): camel-WARNING **: CamelPOP3Store::connect() reported failure without setting its GError Evolution still runs fine apart from the email, so I can still use the calendar, both local and the gmail calendar which sync's with an onine calendar and they are fine. It seems to me that with the lack of port 25 or 110 traffic that evolution is either broken in the POP3 department (perhaps that's where the camel errors are coming from) or there is an issue with authentication preventing the POP3 from working. However I am not sure how to debug this issue. Any ideas?

[Evolution] Current status of palmos sync?
Hi, I'd like to ask whether anything has changed with the palm-pilot conduits for evolution 3.0.1. Specifically whether birthdays are synced now (they weren't a while back, hence I'm now using a very roundabout syncml based way). ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

This is due to the fact that I am running KVM-QEMU and have eth0 bridged through br0 to allow direct access to the virtual guest I have running on this system and is controlled by network instead. (The guest is a windows XP for some software that only runs in Windows). This desktop was configured this way from the start before evolution was ever configured on the desktop and has worked flawlessly until now. Just to make sure that NetworkManager was not involved, I unconfigured network and started NetworkManager and configured network access and even after a reboot, the same error persisted with Evolution. Just a side note, the offline/online functionality still seems to work fine with the network controlled by the network daemon.

Re: [Evolution] evolution-2.32.1 (FreeBSD HEAD) calendar not working
I think we're getting somewhere :-)
I think I catched the beast:
I checked in /proc/PID/map where the two addr are:
(gdb) p *hash_table
$2 = {size = 8, mod = 7, mask = 7, nnodes = 0, noccupied = 0,
nodes = 0x29972d60, hash_func = 0x29ed1f6b, key_equal_func = 0x29ed1f39,
ref_count = 1, version = 0, key_destroy_func = 0, value_destroy_func = 0}
(gdb) p e2k_ascii_strcase_hash
$1 = {guint (gconstpointer)} 0x2a06d7db e2k_ascii_strcase_hash
the good addr 0x2a06d7db is in the area of the shared lib:
0x2a02c000 0x2a09b000 87 272 0xc4b14908 r-x 2 1 0x0 COW NC vnode
/usr/local/lib/evolution-data-server-1.2/extensions/libecalbackendexchange.so
NCH -1
the broken addr 0x29ed1f6b does not is in any area of /proc/PID/map
then I checked all shared libs in
/usr/local/lib/evolution-data-server-1.2/extensions/ for the symbol
e2k_ascii_strcase_hash():
libecalbackendweather.so
libecalbackendhttp.so
libecalbackendgroupwise.so
libecalbackendfile.so
libecalbackendcontacts.so
libecalbackendcaldav.so
libebookbackendwebdav.so
libebookbackendvcf.so
libebookbackendldap.so
libebookbackendgroupwise.so
libebookbackendgoogle.so
libebookbackendfile.so
libebookbackendexchange.so
0003bf6b T e2k_ascii_strcase_hash
^^^
libecalbackendexchange.so
000417db T e2k_ascii_strcase_hash
^^^
as you can see e2k_ascii_strcase_hash() is in two shared libs and with
the same last bits of the correct addr and the broken addr; as I wild
guess I simply renamed 'libecalbackendexchange.so' to get it out of the
way; the e-calendar-factory complains about it:
(e-calendar-factory:36266): e-data-server-WARNING **: Cannot open
/usr/local/lib/evolution-data-server-1.2/extensions/libebookbackendexchange.so
but for the rest it works fine and can access my calendar data on the
Echange server;
any comments about this clash in the shared lib mapping?
matthias
btw: I filed a bug report in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=649433

So your *calendar* works, but presumably not your address book? I see the problem now.

So of course the same function exists in *both* of the shared libraries that get loaded. The addressbook plugin then gets *unloaded*, I think, when the calendar-server decides that it isn't a calendar plugin. And I think that what you're seeing here is a bug in your platform's dynamic linker. Even though the addressbook plugin got unloaded, the internal symbols in the calendar plugin get resolved to point at it. Then again, maybe it's not a bug; maybe it's just undefined behaviour. I don't remember what is *expected* to happen in this case. But quite frankly, we got what we deserve; we *know* that weird shit happens on a lot of platforms when we do that, so we shouldn't have been doing it in the first place. We should have made our 'libexchange' into a shared library, or played namespace/linker-script tricks to ensure that those functions weren't *exported* from our plugin 'library' objects. I think you'll find this is 'fixed' in Evolution 3.0 merely because the calendar factory no longer loads the addressbook plugins, and vice versa; they are stored in separate directories now. But I suspect we should still fix it *properly* anyway. -- dwmw2 ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Autodiscover is a PITA. Can you try running from the command line with 'EWS_DEBUG=2 evolution' and see what happens when you click the 'Fetch URL' button? Ok, the autodiscover URL is timing out, I even tried doing the POST manually with wget and it didn't connect. So I asked our IT guy for the EWS endpoint URL, I manually entered that and now I get this response from the server: HTTP/1.1 440 Login Timeout Soup-Debug-Timestamp: 1304616346 Soup-Debug: ESoapMessage 21 (0xaaf8ff08) Set-Cookie: sessionid=; path=/; expires=Thu, 01-Jan-1970 00:00:00 GMT Set-Cookie: cadata=; path=/; expires=Thu, 01-Jan-1970 00:00:00 GMT Content-Type: text/html Connection: close Content-Length: 154 No idea what it means or what evolution should do with this.

Correct, I have cutpaste the wrong name from my debugging log file; So your *calendar* works, but presumably not your address book? Correct, the GAL stoped working; but I could managed this to work again when after accessing the calendar, making libebookbackendexchange.so visible again before using GAL for the first time in Evo; I see the problem now.

I have checked the man pages of dlopen(3); there is no definition what will happen with bound symbols on dlclose(3); I could bring this up in the FreeBSD-hackers list, but I think it should be fixed by a better design in Evolution itself (as you said about 3.x); But quite frankly, we got what we deserve; we *know* that weird shit happens on a lot of platforms when we do that, so we shouldn't have been doing it in the first place.

But I suspect we should still fix it *properly* anyway. Should I wait for some kind of fix for 2.32.x? Meanwhile I will compile all again with clean sources from 2.32.3 (to remove all my debugging inserts) and will try to find some dirty workaround, for example with file permissions and setuid-bit so that e-calendary-factory can not open the libebookbackendexchange.so while the e-addrbook-factory can do it... At least we do know now what the problem is in detail; this is good news, I think; thanks for all your hints and help on the way through. matthias -- Matthias Apitz t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e g...@unixarea.de - w http://www.unixarea.de/ ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
