Description of problem: evolution-data-server crashes when using the search functionality in the task view within Evolution. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.7.2.1-3 evolution-data-server-1.7.2-1 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. start up evolution 2. switch to task view 3. enter search term 4. hit enter or preform search Actual results: evolution-data-server reportedly crashes Expected results: search result returned succesfully
I was able to reproduce this on an x86_64 machine, but not on a i386. Both machines were running evolution-2.7.2.1 and evolution-data-server-1.7.2. Will investigate further.
I can no longer reproduce this at all with evolution-2.8.0 and evolution-data-server-1.8.0. David, are you still seeing this problem?
I am indeed still seeing a crash while doing a search in the task context. What information do you require my good sir and I shall provide
A backtrace for evolution-data-server would be very helpful. My access to a 64-bit machine is pretty limited at the moment. TIA. Probably easiest to attach GDB to a running session: $ gdb --pid `/sbin/pidof evolution-data-server-1.8`
Created attachment 136587 [details] backtrace of unwelcome crash I'm unsure if this is indeed the crash we want because now it crashes when I switch to the task view rather than search and my tasks are all gone. I did a evolution --force-shutdown to ensure a clean restart and the same thing happened.
It doesn't look like the backtrace is showing a crash. All three threads are stuck in __GI___poll(). Did the attachment get clipped somehow?
Created attachment 136903 [details] new backtrace Maybe, I recaptured the crash with bug-buddy in the hope that this time the backtrace might be useful.
This one seems to have gone away.
