Description paolo 2009-06-05 12:06:19 UTC
Please describe the problem:
I am having this rather annoying problem with Evolution ... and searching Google or here has proved that apparently I am the only one or so.

Running Ubuntu 9.04 with full update to all the latest software.

When I enter a new appointment in the calendar it comes up with the time field empty (even if I clicked on a time slot). I can select one from the list and nothing happens (the box stays empty) or type a time but when I save it ... the time disappear again, and so the appointment.

Now if I switch to the list view I can see it with starting time 0.00 and end time 0.00 .... I can edit those values from there but whatever I pick from the drop down list I get an error saying: Date should be in the format 1.30.

In the preference page time is set to 24h (though the options are disabled and grayed so I would not be able to go 12 even if I wanted to).

See also file attach 1 (time box is empty), file attach 2 (appointment was created but with no timing) and finally file attach 3 (error on setting the time from the page on screenshot 2)



Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:
To create a calendar entry with the right time

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Thanks for the answer. I did not search in Italian but only in English (here and on Ubuntu forums) and the bug did not came up. My fault. 

I am just curious what do you mean by latest version? Having Ubuntu 9.04 (latest release) fully updated is not considered latest/supported? Should I report bugs only if I run latest version compiled from source?

Thanks 
Paolo
