Crash when opening Exchange inbox in e2k_context_send_message

PS. Makes evolution completely unusable for me.

Thanks for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? Maybe you could get a backtrace with a debug build of evolution-exchange? Does evolution crash too or it's unusable an another way or that's because you use it only for with an exchange server?

I'm running the latest edgy.

I've installed evolution-dbg and evolution-data-server-dbg. What's the easiest way to get the exchange backend with debug symbols? Hand-compile from source?

It's unusable just 'cos I use only exchange, sorry for being ambiguous.

to get a debug evolution-exchange add "deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ddebs edgy main" to your apt sources list and install the evolution-exchange-dbgsym package

There's -dbgsym packages for evolution, evolution-data-server and evolution-plugins, but not for evolution-exchange.

what architecture do you use?

"$ apt-cache show evolution-exchange-dbgsym | grep Filename
Filename: pool/main/e/evolution-exchange/evolution-exchange-dbgsym_2.8.1-0ubuntu1_amd64.ddeb"

Plain intel (i386/i686)

toni@toni-laptop:~$ uname -a
Linux toni-laptop 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Mon Oct 2 13:48:24 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

Well,

I installed debug versions of evolution-exchange-server, libc6-i686 and others, and got the attached backtrace by hand. I'm really not sure if this is the same, because it didn't seem to crash instantaneously with the new packages.

(At least this one doesn't seem to be an evolution-exchange bug.)

Can you get the debug symbols of evolution-data-server too and try again?

I already have them (evolution-data-server-dbg)

could you install evolution-exchange-dbgsym from "deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ddebs edgy main" and get a backtrace with it?

Oh, looks like the i386 packages have appeared. Okay, here's the latest.

Thank you for the work on that. It looks like the issue might be due to libsoup or gnutls, could you install libsoup2.2-8-dbgsym (it should be available tomorrow) and libgnutls13-dbg and get a new backtrace with gdb:
gdb evolution-exchange
(gdb) run

After that we should have all the required informations, sorry for the extra work required to install the debug packages etc, we are working to get automatic debug backtraces without having to ask users to install packages and get new backtraces, etc

Hmm, the evolution-exchange backend gets started when I log in, so I just attached to it using gdb. I hope this is OK.

And here's another report, this one by bug buddy.

Gaim crashes in the same gnutls bits in bug 51272. We can't rule out breakage in gnutls.

Why is this still tagged as needs information? What information do you need? Network sniffs, more gdb stuff, strace/ltrace, what?

Nothing else required, there is thousand of desktop bugs and only few people working on them so it takes time to reply, I've forwarded your bug with the debug backtrace upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402752

fixed upstream, thanks for reporting!.

there is no need to have a specific hardy bug for this one, using bug #236781 for the update rather

there is a new version in intrepid
