RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jiri Koten 2013-01-31 13:37:44 UTC 
Description of problem:
When I create a new MAPI Address Book in evolution, it is not synced - I don't see it from other clients like OWA and also it doesn't retain any contacts. 

I'm getting "Unable to perform search. This query did not complete successfully
" error when I select the Address Book.

When I create a new contact in it, on next start it's displayed in the default "Contacts" Address Book. The newly created Address Book remains empty.

Tested with MS Exchange 2010 server.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.28.3-30.el6
evolution-data-server-2.28.3-16.el6
evolution-mapi-0.28.3-11.el6
openchange-1.0-4.el6
samba4-libs-4.0.0-53.el6.rc4


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new MAPI Address Book
2. Select it
3. Create a new contact in it
4. Restart evo 
5. Select the newly created Address Book
6. Open the account in another client (OWA)
  
Actual results:
Address Book is not accessible from other clients and fails to retain any contacts

To be honest, I do not know how OWA works with user-created book/calendar (bug #906364) folders. I think if you create the folder under "Contacts", or under "Calendar" (simply below the "Personal Folders", then it'll be shown in the OWA too.

*** Bug 906364 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 5 Milan Crha 2013-02-01 11:14:23 UTC 
This depends on the QueryRows bug (bug #905591), without it evolution-mapi throws errors when selecting newly created books/calendars.

Otherwise this is addressed by three upstream bugs:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600655
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=620095
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623280

Please note that to have this fully working, one should visit the Mail view and see there the folders, otherwise the list of places in New Book/Calendar is "empty", consisting only with "Personal Folders", which is just a virtual node.

evolution-mapi-0.28.3-create-new-sources.patch

This is a compilation of the fixes for those three upstream bug reports and a bit more changes, thus user cannot create folders directly under the "Personal Folders" node. The Exchange's 2010 OWA shows calendar/book folders regardless whether they are created under Mailbox folder or the mailbox/Calendar folder, it only requires to be re-logged, to not use cached data.
Comment 8 Milan Crha 2013-05-09 10:26:45 UTC 
All three upstream patches from comment #5 are part of 0.32.2, thus I make this depends also on the rebase bug.

Screenshot

The addressbook is created and synced to server but it contains three malformed contacts (see screenshot) which only shows in Evolution. After opening the adressbook in OWA they disappear on next sync.

Also cannot delete or rename the adressbook and it doesn't retain any contacts created in evo, they appear in Contacts after restart. Should I file separate bugs for these? 


Addressbok created under Mailbox > Contacts.
Comment 15 Milan Crha 2013-10-11 14:00:35 UTC 
It seems to me that there are missing upstream patches for

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638247
   Deadlock when enables an account

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641123
   Not set "folder-id" property on an addressbook source

I see it working fine with them. Here [1] is a test package for confirmation. Please, give it a try.
