@Mathieu (#29): I am having the same exact problem. Upon switching to the calendar, my events (from Exchange) appear on the calendar for a few moments before the crash. I used list-symbols-packages-v2.sh to identify and install all the dbgsym packages for normal running evolution and e-calendar-factory instances. I also manually installed the matching dbgsym versions of libebackend, libecal, libedata-cal, libedataserver, and libedataserverui. I followed your instructions and obtained the attached gdb output. If I'm missing something, please let me know. ** Attachment added: output using instructions from post #29 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+bug/655405/+attachment/2077892/+files/e-calendar-factory.gdb.ubuntu.10.10.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655405 Title: evolution calendar-, task- and notivication-lists crashes by opening -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thanks. Can you please try to start e-calendar-factory in GDB to see if the issue can be reproduced? To do this you'll want to: - Close evolution - Make sure evolution, and e-calendar-factory are no longer running - Start e-c-f in gdb: run the command gdb --args /usr/lib/evolution/e-calendar-factory, then type run and press enter again to start it. - Start evolution If all goes well, e-calendar-factory should get started, then evolution will start and e-calendar-factory might crash. This is likely the crash we need, so back in the terminal window with gdb, run the commands: bt full thread apply all bt full And copy all of the output to a file to attach to this bug report.

Apologies for not responding to message #25, been busy with the day job (made more difficult because I can't use my calendar !)

I have the same problem: When I switch to calendar view in Evolution, it does not display my calendar information but shows a number of error message windows. Evolution does not crash entirely, I can still go back to reading mail etc. Unticking a calendar box and then re-ticking it makes the calendar information display briefly, then another error message appears.

Steve, what happens if you open, then save the calendar ics file in iso-8859-1 (or -15 or whatever)? Can Evolution then read it? Also, does evolution crash immediately?

[Bug 655405] Re: evolution calendar-, task- and notivication-lists crashes by opening
We've had the same problem today after an upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10: The Evolution calendar has quit unexpectedly. // Your calendars will not be available until Evolution is restarted After a bit of trying to figure what was wrong by searching on internet, on a hunch, I went and opened the calendar text file in ~/.evolution/calendar/local/system/calendar.ics. I checked the encoding of the file by clicking File / Save As... (which allows to check the encoding), and I noticed it was ISO-8859-1. I made a copy of calendar.ics just in case, and saved a copy after forcing UTF-8 encoding in the Save as... dialog box. That solved the problem (except that accented letters were mangled -- not a big deal). Hope this works for other as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655405 Title: evolution calendar-, task- and notivication-lists crashes by opening -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi tellapu. I went to check again the copy I saved prior to applying the change, and I have to correct myself: Just the same as what you found out on your side, the file encoding was actually ISO-8859-15 (not ISO-8859-1 as I reported previously). I didn't pay attention to the line ending settings, but now I checked and it is Windows, before and after the fix (IIRC, in Unix/Linux, line ending are \n, in Windows \n\r, and in Mac \r) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655405 Title: evolution calendar-, task- and notivication-lists crashes by opening -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
Re: [Bug 655405] Re: evolution calendar-, task- and notivication-lists crashes by opening
Thanks for the comment again, I am glad that there is moving something. I tried to find evolution-dbgsym in the package manager, but could not find it (also in the terminal: E: Version ‘2.22.1-0ubuntu2.8.04.1’ for ‘evolution-dbgsym’ was not found). Even after adding the ddebs.list (according to the instructions https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash). Do I have to download and run the list-dbgsym-packages-v2.sh shell script as well? What is installed on my computer: libgtk2.0-0 - was installed libglib2.0-0 - was installed pkg-create-dbgsym - newly installed now evolution-dbg was installed. Anyway, I ran the backtrace again (according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace) and attached the new backtrace file. Perhaps it is useful. Otherwise please instruct me (step-by-step) what to do, I would love to help as I really desperately wait that the calendar would work again. ** Attachment added: gdb-evolution - Calendar crashes - 2.txt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655405/+attachment/1800527/+files/gdb-evolution%20-%20Calendar%20crashes%20-%202.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655405 Title: evolution calendar-, task- and notivication-lists crashes by opening -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
