Calender closes when clicked

Binary package hint: evolution

Whenever I click on the Calender tab, it just closes the application immediately. No error message or anything.

Thanks for your bug report. Please try to obtain a backtrace http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and attach the file to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

I couldnt find the log file that it was supposed to create, so I just
copied all the info in the terminal and attached it as a txt file. Let
me know if you need anything else.

May you please install the following packages: evolution-dbgsym, libglib2.0-0-dbgsym, libgtk2.0-0-dbgsym, libedataserverui1.2-8-dbgsym and libedataserver1.2-9-dbgsym and try to get a new trace? this time please attach the file to the report instead of putting it as a comment, thanks!.

[nomojob (freedomcentral)]

First, I am new to Ubuntu. How do I install these? Also, does this
debugger create a debugging log somewhere? Where do I find that?

Thanks!

That's ok, you need to add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list :

deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/ddebs gutsy main universe
deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/ddebs gutsy-updates main universe
deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/ddebs gutsy-proposed main universe
deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/ddebs gutsy-security main universe

then run apt-get update and install the packages

Then you need to follow these instructions for getting a backtrace : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace if you have any doubt don't hesitate in asking us, thanks!

[nomojob (freedomcentral)]

In the instructions it says to:

"Attach the complete output from GDB, contained in gdb-<program>.txt, in
your bug report. "

I can't find this .txt file anywhere. What am I missing here?

hi there
in the instructions where it said gdb-<program>.txt the "<program>" part meant to be replaced by the name of the program you're trying to get a backtrace from. in this case will be evolution, and this file will be created after you run the commands described in the documentation.

hope this helps to clarify things out.

[nomojob (freedomcentral)]

I have followed the instructions about 5 times now and each time it does
not create that .txt file anywhere. I do a search for it one the whole
filesystem and it turns up nothing. What am I missing here? In the
terminal it looks as if everything is going as planned, except for
creating the .txt file.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However the stacktrace you submitted isn't good enough to determine where's the problem. Please follow these instuctions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
