Comment 5 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-09-18 12:41:20 UTC

Critical Warning Crash.


From the descriptions:
* startup
* trying to read an e-mail
* Clicking the buttons for some JPEG photos attached to a mail.

Can you guys confirm, that the email that is supposed to be displayed contains attached images?

Comment 6 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-09-18 12:47:42 UTC

Regarding your repeated crashes, here are some hints how to recover, taken from
an archived post [1] of mine:

> [...] the first step is to disable the global
> (pre)view option. With the (pre)view pane disabled, Evo will not render
> (display) the currently selected mail when started, thus avoiding
> displaying the mail that crashes Evo.
> 
> $ gconftool-2 --set /apps/evolution/mail/display/show_preview --type bool 0

If starting Evo after running that command still crashes, there are a lot more
details and info in the post how to go on. (If this happens to be a non-local
account like IMAP, using another client temporarily just to get rid of the mail
would do also.)

FWIW, you most likely got the pre-view pane enabled, which will show the last
selected mail upon starting Evo. Unfortunately the mail that is being displayed
causes the crash.

Comment 7 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-09-21 14:51:20 UTC

Probably the same crash as bug 333864 and its duplicates?

No this isnt fixed. That was something different sankar.

Confirming, for obvious reasons.

Comment 15 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-10-13 02:46:36 UTC

Btw, missed a target milestone, eh? ;)

Note that according to descriptions, a fairly large amount of the current flood of useless stacktraces without responses most likely actually are duplicates.

Comment 16 Karsten Bräckelmann 2006-10-13 03:06:52 UTC

Hmm...  *poke*

Please note that there are different kinds of traces here. Some are like the initial report, with g_object_unref() and g_return_if_fail_warning() calls. Some are without that, stopping right after efhd_image_resized().

Also, what about comment 7?

Comment 17 Srinivasa Ragavan 2006-10-13 20:25:11 UTC

The patch attached at bug #333864 should fix also. It is a combined patch.

Comment 18 Srinivasa Ragavan 2006-10-16 12:40:32 UTC

Fixed to head and stable.
