Censored Bug Buddy report from evolution-exchange crash

Looks like libsoup is choking on a URI it doesn't like and Evolution is not
checking for error.  This appears to have been fixed in Evolution 2.21 so I can
backport the fix.

James, I built an updated evolution-data-server package with a patch based on
your  Bug Buddy report, but I haven't been able to reproduce the crash here so
the patch is untested.  Would you mind testing the package before I push it to
Fedora repos?

Updated package is here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/packages/evolution-data-server/1.12.3/3.fc8

Thanks, it no longer crashes.

-- Additional comment from mbarnes on 2008-02-20 12:04 EST --
Cool, I'll push it out to Fedora Updates then.

I'm still trying to reproduce this on our internal Exchange servers here but the
Authenticate step is working fine here.  I suspect it's related to your Outlook
Web Access configuration.  Do you know anything about it, or whether it's some
kind of non-standard configuration?

evolution-data-server-1.12.3-3.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8

Seems RHEL is not appropriate for desktop environment, I am using debian and ubuntu at home, and no complains at all.

Comment 17 David Ward 2009-07-14 12:36:42 UTC

Matthew, I applied the patch for that bug from upstream to the source RPM and built it, but it continues to crash for me.  Does that patch fix it for you?

David, as far as I can tell it fixes the issue. Are you sure you are running proper evolution-data-server binary?
