Description Martin Möller 2007-02-08 10:47:42 UTC
In the properties windows for e-mail accounts, the OK button is constantly disabled. This makes it impossible to chance any settings for the entered e-mail accounts. The OK button shows up enable for half a second, then disables and stays that way, no matter what changes are made.

Comment 3 Martin Möller 2007-02-09 06:45:51 UTC
This is the output when started from command line. Perhaps this is of any use?

Comment 4 Peter 2007-02-15 09:26:07 UTC
Same problem here. Gentoo linux, Evolution 2.8.3, gtk 2.10.9. 

Andre or somebody how is aware. Where does evolution saves it's account settings? I need to modify smtp server to send mail, but I'm unable to do this...
Comment 5 André Klapper 2007-02-16 20:04:11 UTC
Peter: run "gconf-editor", go to apps/evolution/mail, open the key named "accounts", click on "Edit" for the account that includes the smtp setting, and for convenience copy the string to a text-editor (like gedit), change it, copy it back, and save it.
Comment 6 Karsten Bräckelmann 2007-02-18 23:26:38 UTC
Some snippets from IRC:

(evolution-2.8:29537): e-utils-WARNING **: can't load plugin '/home/kevin/tmp/evo/lib/evolution/2.8/plugins/liborg-gnome-groupwise-features.so: undefined symbol: _'

That warning seems to be related to the problem. Thanks Kevin. He disabled the groupwise plugins, which made it work for him.


Obviously, confirming.  (Not FreeBSD related.)

This patch fixes the missing symbol in the groupwise features plugin.

I found that the Groupwise Features plugin was the source of the broken OK button.  The unresolved symbol was caused by a missing include file.
Comment 8 Karsten Bräckelmann 2007-02-18 23:56:26 UTC
Thanks Kevin, great fix! :)

However, just spotted, that this exact issue has been fixed recently.
