evolution-exchange stop displaying messages in certain folders [corrupted summary ?]
Last modified: 2009-01-20 00:30:10 UTC
Please describe the problem: After using evolution for some times, my exchange account does not work properly. Some folders do not display any messages while they do have messages in, other folders work fine. Symptoms: 1) Right clicking the folder -> refresh do not change anything 2) Going to Folders->Subscription, selecting the exchange account and hitting refresh do not show any folders 3) right clicking the folder->Properties reads: 0 unread 0 total size seems is correct 4) Folder size does not seem to be an issue as some small folder do have the symptoms while other bigger folder to display messages 5) find /home/user/.evolution/mail/exchange/ -name '*cmeta*' -exec rm '{}' \; did not resolve the issue 6) folder with symptoms show nothing in .evolution/mail/exchange/<account>/personal/subfolders/Inbox/summary (except some binary data, but no actual headers) 7) removing summary file from those folders fix the issue Steps to reproduce: unfortunately, I don't know how to reproduce it Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? once the folder is corrupted, refreshing ... won't have any effects Other information:
Created attachment 99295 [details] cmeta of non working folder cmeta of non working folder
Created attachment 99296 [details] summary file
Created attachment 99297 [details] summary-meta
Forgot to mention, this is evolution-exchange 2.12.0-0ubuntu1 on ubuntu gutsy 7.10 both i386 and amd64
I'm experiencing the same symptoms on fedora 8. [nik@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep evol evolution-data-server-1.12.1-2.fc8 evolution-help-2.12.1-3.fc8 evolution-2.12.1-3.fc8 evolution-webcal-2.12.0-1.fc8 evolution-exchange-2.12.1-1.fc8 Possibly the same problem: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435371 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442098 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=478151 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381351
I'm also seeing this. I just upgraded from Fedora 6 to Fedora 8, and many of my folders simply show no messages now. If I use a different interface to exchange, I can rename the bad folders, then they work just fine within evolution.
Hello, I guess this http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353715#c7 might fix those issues. Marking as NeedInfo.
Reducing the severity as per the information provided in Comment#7. Can you please verify and let us know if you still face the issue. Thanks.
I am seeing this as well. chris@chris-desktop:~$ uname -a Linux chris-desktop 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 13:23:42 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux chris@chris-desktop:~$ evolution --version GNOME evolution 2.22.1 Junk filtering is disabled.
Summary Stuff has greatly been rewritten since. Thus I am marking this as obsolete. Can you try with a current stable and report back?
