Strace of Evolution Email none

Description Anthony D. Davis 2004-03-16 08:27:20 UTC 
Description of problem: Evolution Email will not open. I click on the
Icon and it starts to initialize but does not. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.4.5-7


How reproducible: It just won't open.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Up Fedora
2. Click on Evolution Email on Task bar.
3. Main Menu, Internet, Evolution Email.
  
Actual results: Will not open, Initializes but stops. You can see it
appear in the task bar trying to initialize but then it stops and
disappears. 


Expected results: For Email to open so I can see my email and other 
things Evolution offers.

Additional info: An strace was done.

Strace of Evolution Email

The only things I can think of that I did before this bug happened was send a
new e-mail edited it. I also sent an e-mail using Mozilla 1.4.1 by clicking on
a web page link to bring up Mozilla e-mail (I send email from it I don't
retrieve email from Mozilla I did not add a mail server only smtp server). I
also did edit the email I sent while using Evolution but my strace shows a
different shared object file to report an error.
Comment 2 Bart Martens 2004-03-18 05:49:41 UTC 
Anthony, could you run these commands, and copy the output here please?

rpm -qf /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2
rpm -q evolution gtkhtml3
ls -l /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2*

The output that I got, is:

$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2
gtkhtml3-3.0.9-5
$ rpm -q evolution gtkhtml3
evolution-1.4.5-7
gtkhtml3-3.0.9-5
$ ls -l /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2*

Comment 7 Bart Martens 2004-03-19 19:17:59 UTC 
OK, this doesn't seem to be an evolution bug, rather a problem with
prelink. I'm not sure whether prelink did something wrong or only got
interrupted. Changing component from evolution to prelink.

You could try to fix the problem you're now having with evolution,
with these commands:

mv /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2.#prelink#.O0YsOG
/usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2
chmod 755 /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2
Comment 8 Anthony D. Davis 2004-03-20 08:21:46 UTC 
The command above did not work but there is also a
/usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2.#prelink#.8uv5xd
file that I did not move to /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2
should I do that? I only did this command below:
 
mv /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2.#prelink#.O0YsOG
/usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2
chmod 755 /usr/lib/libgtkhtml-a11y-3.0.so.2.1.2

evolution is still not opening. It starts in the task bar then dies.
Comment 9 Bart Martens 2004-03-20 08:55:18 UTC 
Anthony, let's continue this via e-mail and irc, to keep support
questions separated from bug documentation.
