GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 311973
Generic error after creating a tasks list under other user's Tasks list despite the permissions
Last modified: 2013-07-23 14:29:02 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1.Subscribe to other user's Tasks with permissions to create subfolders 2.Now try to create a sub Tasks list of the Tasks list creating in step 1 "Generic error" message is displayed, but that newly created tasks list appears in the folder hierarcy which is unusable.
This is happening with the devel snaps, evolution-exchange-2.3.6.0.200507270301-0.snap.novell.11.1 evolution-data-server-1.3.6.0.200507270301-0.snap.novell.11.1 evolution-2.3.6.0.200507270301-0.snap.novell.11.1
looks like only gconf entry is created and folder creation is faild.
Bumping version to a stable release.
The "evolution-exchange" package only supports Exchange 2000 and 2003 servers. Newer versions such as Exchange 2007 and 2010 are not supported by "evolution-exchange". It is required to use the package "evolution-ews" (or to some extend "evolution-mapi") for newer version fo Exchange servers. If the problem/request described in this report still happens with a recent version of "evolution-ews" or "evolution-mapi", please add a comment to this report (and update the "product" setting accordingly if possible). There are currently no plans to continue the development of the package "evolution-exchange", so this report will soon be closed as WONTFIX. Thanks for your understanding and sorry that the reported problem was not solved in time in the package "evolution-exchange".
evolution-exchange only supports the older Microsoft Exchange server versions 2000 and 2003. The last stable release of evolution-exchange was 3.4.4 which took place a year ago. evolution-exchange is now deprecated and not under active development anymore. It is unlikely that there will be any further active development. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again. Also feel free to reopen this ticket and change the "Product" field accordingly if the reported issue still happens with a recent version (newer than version 3.6) of one of those Exchange backends that are still supported. Please see https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/3.8/exchange-connectors-overview.html for more information on available backends.
