Description of problem: When setting up an Ms Exchange account, On the Receiving Email Page, if Mailbox field is filled before clicking "Authenticate" button.This account will unavailable even it seems had been set up. you can easily verify by clicking "Send/Receive" tool,Evolution will throw an Error dialogue : >Error while Scanning folders in "Exchange server ***". Could not authenticate >to server. ( Password incorrect? ) even with the correct password. In another account set up scenario, I just filled the usename & OWA URL fields, then click "Authenticate" button, the same Mailbox as what I have input in the previous scenario will generate automatically. and this account is available.is it due to my wrongly operation in the previous scenario ? We have a Ms Exchange server and some accounts for test, If you want to use them,pls tell me Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.12.3-8.el5_2.3 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1.launch evolution account assistant. 2.Enter account information and go to Receiving Email page 3.Set server type as Microsoft Exchange 4.Enter username/OWA URL/Mailbox 5.Click Authenticate button 6.Enter the password 7.Follow the assistant to setup account. 8.Close Evolution Preferences window 9.Click "Send/Receive" button on toolbar. Actual results: Evolution will throw an Error dialogue : Error while Scanning folders in "Exchange server ***". Could not authenticate to server. ( Password incorrect? ) Expected results: the account should available. Additional info:
Could you try to run evolution-exchange-storage process on terminal and get the debug log from there, in similar way as shown below, with command in terminal: a) evolution --force-shutdown b) open terminal for the storage and invoke: E2K_DEBUG=5 $PREFIX/libexec/evolution/2.12/evolution-exchange-storage >&eex.log (it's supposed to be on one line. The prefix is place where is the package installed.) c) on other terminal run 'evolution' Try to open the mail folder in the exchange account, maybe enter password again, then it'll probably fail. Close evolution, the exchange-storage-process should stop after few seconds too. Look in the eex.log, delete passwords and/or other sensitive information from there and upload here please. Thanks in advance.
Never mind, I see the problem, probably, the URL is damaged, somehow.
I posted patch to the upstream bug, and new evolution-data-server-1.12.3-6.el5_2.3 package has been built now. Changing component to eds too. I do not know how properly close this, maybe a duplicate of the bug #471215 ?
Bug 471215 is z-stream though. Will that messed up the nvr? If they are not related and the risk of not including this patch is low (ie, its ok for customer to wait n they got something which is working), I suggest we push to 5.4.
Verified on evolution-data-server-1.12.3-6.el5_2.3
