[Evolution] Failed to connect address book “tmcconnell...@gmail.com : Contacts”

2022-03-12 Thread Tim McConnell via evolution-list
Hi All, 
When I open Evolution I get the above Banner with this in the text of
the Banner. "Invalid request URI or header, or unsupported nonstandard
parameter: Contacts API is being deprecated. Migrate to People API to
retain programmatic access to Google Contacts. See
https://developers.google.com/people/contacts-api-migration."; 

I've followed the link and tried adding the dependencies it suggests
and the stupid banner reappears. I'm on Debian 11 Bullseye (Stable) 
with Evolution 3.38.3-1. 
If I do some checking Debian Bookworm (testing) has the current version
of Evolution.  Deos that version shut this banner up?

If it works from the command line, then it really should work anywhere.
Is the command in kalarm executed as your own username?

Thanks for the explanation. That works from my command line, but
doesn't work in kalarm.

Evolution (or the others) don't actually do it themselves. They use
xdg-open which opens whatever in the users preferred application. So
something like 

  xdg-open http://www.gnome.org

will open the wewbsite in your preferred browser using the configured
mechanism (new window, new tab, etc.).  This applies to not just URLs -
it works for files - give it a .docx file, it will open LibreOffice,
give it an image, it will open gimp etc. etc.

The issue is that it gives a "ENOSPC" error, which is usually
associated with disk space (and the text error message reflects that),
but in this case it's to do with the number of namespaces allowed by
the kernel.

If you Google for the error you can see that the error triggered
changes with kernel version, so obviously there has been some debate
about what exactly it should be reporting.

On my (Fedora 35) system it's 63513.

Set it by editing/adding a file in /etc/sysctl.d with the contents

user.max_user_namespaces = 63513

(call it something like "90namespace.conf" and then reboot the machine)

I'm still not sure why this is an issue if you aren't using a
containerised environment.

Especially if /tmp is a tmpfs containig a lot of small files and/or
links, inodes might be the culprit.

By default tmpfs is half of the available memory, so it might be just
around (2210MiB+6971MiB)/2=4590.5MiB
   4590.5MiB/1024=4.48GiB . That isn't much.

Hi,

it's also possible that the the file system used by Evolution run out of
inodes. IOW it's possible that still a lot of disk space is available,
but that no space is left related to inodes, see

https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/how-to-all-out-of-inodes.html .

I once run out of inodes when building a package in tmpfs with a
countless amount of links.

Regards,
Ralf

Is this a Flatpak or other installing inside of a sandbox or VM?  As
Pete mentioned, it sounds like the environment is out of disk space.
