Comment 1 André Klapper 2006-01-21 00:31:24 UTC
Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system - bug 324058 has a similar stacktrace.
Please feel free to report any further bugs you find. Thanks in advance.


*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 324058 ***
Comment 2 Chenthill P 2006-01-23 07:06:05 UTC
This is not a dup of bug 324058, as that bug states new appointment dialog comes up and evo crashes while saving the appointment.

Adding william murray in CC. Can you please test this patch and see if it fixes the issue.
Comment 5 Wiliam Murray 2006-01-23 11:33:08 UTC
Excellent. That fixed it, thank you.

   Unfortunately, it means it now crashes when I try to 
delete a calendar entry! I wanted a tracback, so bug-buddy has submitted a new bug for that.
       Bill
Comment 6 Harish Krishnaswamy 2006-01-25 04:15:24 UTC
Patch approved for commit. The crash due to deletion of calendar entry (different from the bug here) needs to be resolved yet, though.
Comment 7 Chenthill P 2006-01-25 04:20:37 UTC
Fix has been committed. William, can please specify the crash which occurs while deleting a calendar entry.
