Hi all,
I cannot open evolution anymore. Got the newest version. when I try to open it, it comes up until it generates the maillist and then it gets stuck. Doesn't even ask for password. Uninstalled it, reinstalled it. Even the opening of the back-up file on another computer doesn't work, but that might be a different one. I simply cannot get or send emails, because evolution does not open. Does anybody have a suggestion?

I am on Fedora as OS and use the 3.26.1 version of Evolution.
I used the back-up on a different PC and it worked out the same way. By my comments you know that I don't know much. I suspect, that I unintentionally saved a wrong password. I never save passwords but then again, I type sometimes faster than I think... Sorry. Is there a way I could delete that password? Any backdoor?

Any backdoor? If you the menus still work you can do Edit -> Preferences -> Mail Accounts -> (select account) -> Edit -> Receiving E-mail and then click on "Forget password". Evolution will always remember what ever password you type in, otherwise you would be typing it every few minutes. But I suspect that's not the problem - if it were the wrong password the login would fail and you would be prompted for the password. You need to run Evolution from the command line and see if any errors are produced there. Did you do as Patrick suggested and create a new *Linux* user, login in as that new user and configure Evolution? Does Evolution work then?

There even necessarily is ~/.xsession-errors when running X, as long as the user doesn't redirect the output or the user chose a display manager doing this. That's why I've written "FWIW" and "usually", let alone that I first explained how to run evolution from command line. However, while reading the mixture of output redirected to ~/.xsession-errors often isn't that clear as running a GUI app from command line, it still could be very helpful, if a culprit e.g. is easy to "grep" by terms such as "error", "evolution", "lib", in addition with "| grep -v -i warning" to eliminate all the waste, that isn't filtered when simply launching an app from command line. Résumé: Mentioning ~/.xsession-errors makes very well sense. There is a reason that this file usually is provided by default installs of user-friendly distros, even if they migrated already to Wayland while a lot of issues caused by Wayland still aren't solved yet. AFAIK know for good reason they allow still to chose between a Wayland and a X user session by the display manager's greater. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [hidden email] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list |

It's relevant for this thread, since you spread misinformation about Linux. Next time users reading this don't try to solve an issue, that actually could be solved by purging and after that installing a package. You could have written that purging Evolution and then installing it again, doesn't make much sense, but instead you claimed: "Virtually always a waste of time. Linux isn't Windows." How is Windows relevant in the context of this thread? _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [hidden email] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list |

No, Andre is right. There is no ~/.xsession-errors on Fedora 27 (which the OP is using), nor is there in any modern incarnations of Wayland/Gnome. Fedora hasn't used .xsession-errors for sometime. The log output of the display server is sent to the systemd journal. Find out which unit your logs go to by searching for the unit of type 'scope' and then view it with journalctl. $ systemctl list-units -t scope UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION ... session-2.scope loaded active running Session 2 of user pete ... $ journalctl -b -u session-2.scope And THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO RANT ABOUT SYSTEMD. It is what it is.

As an Arch Linux users for many years, I much likely was one of the first users subscribed to this mailing list using systemd.

Next time users reading this don't try to solve an issue, that > actually could be solved by purging and after that installing a package. I wasn't aware I was 'spreading misinformation about Linux'. Apparently Ubuntu has this feature called 'purge' which I've never heard of. Maybe it comes from Debian, which I don't use. In any case a special 'purge' option is not a standard feature of Linux. In the case of rpm-based distros, including Fedora which I use, this the default behaviour. I also see from your quote that '... this does not affect any data or configuration stored in your home directory'. My recommendation to the OP was to try a new configuration in a separate Linux account, which *will* effectively eliminate the effects of any per-user configuration. Since Evolution only stores config information in the user account, using 'purge' is indeed a waste of time in the case of Evolution. And I note that my actual statement was 'virtually always a waste of time', which I maintain is the exact truth. The number of times this is going to correct a problem, either by explicitly deleting config files or by using something like 'purge' is a in my experience a tiny minority of cases. In other words the problem is almost always somewhere else. > You could have written that purging Evolution and then installing it > again, doesn't make much sense, but instead you claimed: "Virtually > always a waste of time. Linux isn't Windows." How is Windows relevant in > the context of this thread? Because reinstalling software is a standard recommendation when a Windows user has a problem. It is definitely not a standard recommendation in Linux. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [hidden email] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list |
Hi all,
let me make my problem more precise. Evolution works fine. It is in my setting that something went wrong and all of a sudden it does not open any more. I installed evolution on a different PC. restored an older back-up and one or two times it loaded fine and then again, it did not want to open again. I am not interested in configuring evolution with a different email. The reason is: I use evolution for my business emails and thunderbird for my private emails. I am not mentioning thunderbird as a problem, so no need to comment on that further. It is just to give the background that I am using different email clients for different reasons. Clawsmail is my security email, which is so restricted that it is only used for a certain group of people and absolute not public. Could it be a problem though, that evolution, thunderbird and clawsmail in one system don't like each other? or may just two of them. The worst side of the problem is that I don't find warnings or comments or anything indicating any error. It just starts and hangs there. The same thing happened on Linux mint, but then I would simply restart the whole system and evolution would just start again. Because linux mint, (and please this is only to mention the background) uses only an older version of evolution, whatever good reason they might have for it, I installed fedora in order to be able to use a more update version. My backup is about 4.2 GB big (just emails), is that getting to the core of the problem? :-) greetings to you all. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [hidden email] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list |

Hi, let's ignore the dependency tree and optional dependencies and just take a look at the direct hard dependencies of a distro, that doesn't split software from upstream into several packages.

As mentioned several times now, we need debug output from you. It sounds like Evolution "hangs" (does not respond to anything in the user interface anymore) but does not "crash" (the application window vanishes unexpectedly). Please make sure that "gdb" is installed. Then open a Terminal window. Then enter the command "gdb evolution". At the next prompt, enter the command "run". Then make Evolution hang. Then enter the command "thread apply all bt full". Then post the *complete* output of *all* those steps somewhere.
