Description Vincent Noel 2005-05-23 16:46:49 UTC

Every time I compose an email and click on "send", I get a crash.
With evolution, gtkhtml, gal and evolution-data-server CVS.
It may come from recent changes in libgnomecanvas ?
(I had to cut the backtrace, it was too long for submission)

Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/evolution-2.4'

Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]

Comment 1 Vincent Noel 2005-05-23 16:51:56 UTC

I tried to downgrade to libgnomecanvas 2.10.1, same thing.

Comment 2 Nagappan Alagappan 2005-05-24 09:57:09 UTC

Vincent: What all accounts you have in your box (IMAP/POP/Groupwise/Exchange/...)?
Do you have any LDAP account configured ?

Comment 3 Vincent Noel 2005-05-24 13:41:38 UTC

I have a single IMAP4 account.
No LDAP account.

Comment 4 Jeffrey Stedfast 2005-05-24 14:40:17 UTC

try using a normal IMAP acount type, IMAP4 is still experimental. The backtrace
you provided doesn't suggest that that will necessarily fix it (crash doesn't
appear to be in the imap4 code but then again, a trace of all threads isn't
present so impossible to say)

Comment 5 Vincent Noel 2005-05-24 15:34:49 UTC

I used a normal IMAP account and even local mail account, same thing : crash :-(

Comment 6 Sebastien Bacher 2005-05-28 13:18:32 UTC

seems to be a duplicate of bug #304915 which has a patch
