Description Michael Hordijk 2005-09-14 15:07:13 UTC

Distribution/Version: Gentoo

Using a Visor Deluxe, I can sync to my Exchange address book, ToDo list, etc. 
But as soon as I try to do the same with the ECalendar conduit, the
evolution-exchange-storage plugin crashes.  I've searched through bugzilla and
google, but haven't found anything that seems like it's this problem.

Using GDB, I get the following:

(evolution-exchange-storage:19386): libecal-CRITICAL **:
e_cal_component_get_as_string: assertion `priv->icalcomp != NULL' failed

(evolution-exchange-storage:19386): libecal-CRITICAL **:

Fix for the bug

Michael: Attached patch fixes exchange-storage process crash during calendar
sync.	Can you give it a try?	You also need the calendar/addressbook patches
in http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-patches/2005-November/msg00111.html
. Those patches enable authentication support in the conduits which is required
for current head.

Comment 3 Veerapuram Varadhan 2005-12-01 14:45:02 UTC

An updated patch lies in
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-patches/2005-December/msg00007.html

Comment 4 Veerapuram Varadhan 2005-12-06 09:12:35 UTC

Fixed in head.
