Cant reproduce this.

I reported the dup -- is there anything I can do to help debug this? 
I'd like to get printing working again.

Hi guys

I have some additional information that might help.  BTW I reported
bug 259016.

The crash only occurred when I tried to print two specific days in my
calendar (using the day view).

I could print from other Evo modules such as email and I could print
other days.

I went back to look at what might be different about these two days. 
There were two things I noticed , but ..... life isn't simple.

1) Some events on the days that crashed Evo had icons in them.  One
day had a reminder icon (bell) and on the other day there was a
meeting invitation sent by someone else and so that appointment had a
bunch-of-heads icon in it.

I chose the first day and removed the reminder from this appointment,
exited Evo then restarted Evo and then went to print.  Unfortunately
it crashed again!

2) The second thing that I noticed that was different about these two
days is that they both contained appointments that overlapped the std
time period.  This means that the appointments showed side by side on
the day view rather than one under the other.

I moved one of these overlapping appointments from the first day to
another (much) later day; exited Evo; re-started Evo and went to
print.  Voila! Evo printed without crashing!

Aha! I though, I have found it and so to try to prove that I went to
the (much) later day and caused the appointment on that day to overlap
with another appointment and tried printing that day..... Well,
unfortunately it printed without crashing and so things aren't as
simple as I thought.

Back I went to the second day that causes Evo to crash while printing.
 I tried printing that day and sure enough it crashed as well, as is,
and with the iconic appointment removed.  However, as soon as I moved
the overlapping appointment to a different day, it too printed without
crashing.

Therefor, there seems to be a definite link between the crashing when
attempting to print and overlapping appointments but it isn't as
simple as creating an overlapping appointment and then trying to print
that.  Something else needs to be present as well and I don't know
what that is.

Lastly, the only other thing that I have changed on Evo lately is that
just prior to the crashes, I changed the configuration to extend the
definition of a working day from 9:00am through 5:00pm to 8:00am
through 6:00pm.  This seems a bit obscure and may be a red herring
but, what the heck, more info is better than less info (sometimes).

adding version info and keyword

changing subject since this bug is very likely based on overlapping
appointments...

Still happens in 2.0.2

I too see these problems, with evolution 1.4.6 but printing a task. 
Based on backtrace, seems to happen in get_uri_without_password ()
from /usr/lib/evolution/1.4/components/libevolution-calendar.so.

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Still unable to reproduce this locally on 1.4, even with the calendar
provided in 56780.  Saw nothing in valgrind on 2.2.  Maybe someone who
can reliably reproduce this can run valgrind?

James: Does this crash occur for all tasks or a for a specific task. If its for
a particular task if you could attach that task.ics or can you give more
information on what all the data is there in that task.  

Created attachment 46370 [details]
Task which crashes evolution when printing

How to crash:

I emailed this task to myself

pressed 'Ok' next to 'Choose an action:  Update'

The task showed up in my task list.  I highlighted the task, right clicked on
it, than clicked 'Print'.

Clicked 'Print' in the print dialog (note that printing to a file also crashes
evolution)

Evolution usually just disappears, but every once in a while bug-buddy catches
it.

This task crashes both 1.4.6 (from gnome2.2 Debian woody backport) and 2.0.2
from Official Debian Sarge.

Actually, it is for 2.0.4 from Debian Sarge.

To answer your questions, most tasks print ok.

The above attached task crashes evolution.

Tasks with long descriptions don't crash when printing, but the whole task
doesn't print either.  Eg I added the result of 'ls -l /usr/bin' to the
Description field of a task, and then printed it.  Though evolution was
extremely slow while working with this task, evolution did not crash, but I only
got one page of output (even on print to file).  This may be a different bug.

James: Thank you for inputs, i am not able to reproduce so far the crash for
task attached, i will try different ways to get this task into my task list and
print.

I just confirmed that if I do:

click on the below task in firefox
right clicking and doing 'Save page as' then saving it to disk as crash.ics
use evolution to mail crash.ics as an attachment
use 'Update' in evolution on the email with this attachment
highlight the task in evolution
right click, print
print to file (or printer-- doesn't matter)
click Print
crash

James: Thanks for inputs. I could reproduce the bug. It is specific to 'Debian',
I am not able to reproduce it on SUSE 9.x/ NLD. Developers over here will look
into it tomorrow, I will follow up with them to provide fix for this as soon as
possible.

I added a bug to the Debian BTS referencing this bug a few days ago:

308962@bugs.debian.org

It might be a packaging issue.

This is not a accessibility bug.
Please remove the accessibility keyword.

harry: done

anyone able to reproduce this bug with any newer version of evolution, like 2.4.2.1 or 2.6 on debian? i have only seen 2.0 reports on this.

Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided. Please feel free to reopen this bug if you can provide the information asked for.
Thanks!

I just tried this on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06.1 and it caused a crash.  This is a debian based distribution, but I don't know how close the evolution and gnome packaging is to Debian though.

This is evolution 2.6.1 BTW.  I can't see how to re-open this, but it is defintely not fixed yet.

James can you install debuggin packages, please, and post a backtrace?
