Evolution-mapi working or not?

[coutts99]

Hmm, message subjects seem to be blank

[clayton]

ALSO EDIT debian/changelog!!!!

Could you please explain what part of this file to edit?

[coutts99]

I didn't change it

[glauco.b]

Yay thanks it works!

You can save the patch file as patch.diff in the unpacked evolution-mapi directory then do -

patch -p0 < patch.diff

Ok, I did everything, but still no luck, after clicking on "authenticate" when creating the account i still get the same exact error as before

Logging into the server... succeeded 
libexchangemapi-Message: exchange-mapi-connection.c:146: exchange_mapi_connection_close: lock(connect_lock)

Plus: I just upgraded to gnome 2.6 and everything is the latest available version.


I'm giving up. Some day I guess it will magically start working

[clayton]

Same here. The latest update today (0.26.0.1-0ubuntu1) of evolution-mapi resulted in the same crash while trying to connect. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the jaunty-proper release.

I had to create a new blank account, then once evolution opens, go back and change it to a mapi account and fill in the details then.

[clayton]

Thanks for the advice, coutts99. I created the blank account then went back and put my exchange server info in. Evolution froze and I forcefully closed it. Every time I restarted Evo, it would crash within 2 seconds (checking exchange server mail).

I uninstalled and reinstalled evolution, and now it doesn't crash but it fails login with this output (no password in keyring?):

any ideas?

Not sure, mine works fine for checking email. Have you gone back into the options and put your password in again?

Lot's of bugs in the software though, so I'm sticking to using Outlook over Citrix for now. I'll keep revisiting it though, as I'd rather just use Evolution.

Hi guys, I'm getting the same segfault and I was wondering if you need to setup kerberos and connect to the domain before the above fix works?

Cheers, Evan.

I didn't do that.
