Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it. Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!
I've submitted a strack trace via bug-boddy. Bug-boddy told me http://crash.gnome.org/report/index/7493bfd8-c89e-11dd-ad92-0007e9333148?date=2008-12-12-22 as url
Since the URL returns an 530 error these are the crash-details: Distribution: Fedora release 10 (Cambridge) Gnome Release: 2.24.2 2008-11-25 (Red Hat, Inc) BugBuddy Version: 2.24.2 System: Linux 2.6.27.7-134.fc10.i686 #1 SMP Mon Dec 1 22:42:50 EST 2008 i686 X Vendor: The X.Org Foundation X Vendor Release: 10503000 Selinux: Enforcing Accessibility: Disabled GTK+ Theme: Nodoka Icon Theme: Fedora Memory status: size: 0 vsize: 0 resident: 0 share: 0 rss: 0 rss_rlim: 0 CPU usage: start_time: 0 rtime: 0 utime: 0 stime: 0 cutime:0 cstime: 0 timeout: 0 it_real_value: 0 frequency: 0 ----------- .xsession-errors --------------------- (evolution:6162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_box_pack: assertion `child->parent == NULL' failed (evolution:6162): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `GtkButton' to `GtkMisc' (evolution:6162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_misc_set_alignment: assertion `GTK_IS_MISC (misc)' failed (evolution:6162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_box_pack: assertion `child->parent == NULL' failed (evolution:6162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_box_pack: assertion `child->parent == NULL' failed (evolution:6162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_box_pack: assertion `child->parent == NULL' failed (evolution:6162): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated (evolution:6162): e-data-server-CRITICAL **: e_account_set_string: assertion `ea != NULL' failed --------------------------------------------------
Thanks, but this information still doesn't contain a stack trace. Can you try pasting the crash report directly from Bug Buddy? (crash.gnome.org is rather useless, unfortunately.) Also please make sure you have debugging information installed before posting the crash report. (run "debuginfo-install evolution" as root) Thanks in advance.
Also, you might try updating to evolution-2.24.2-2.fc10. That updated fixed a serious bug that's been causing all kinds of strange side effects. The crash you're seeing might be one of those side effects.
Updating to evolution-2.24.2-2.fc10 solved this problem. Thanks for the fast help.
Thanks for the update.
