[Bug 882214] Re: Evolution throws up various GConf error dialogs

 

I get the same errors. I see a bunch of dialog alerts come up. I'm
seeing these when evolution is running in the background (it may be
triggered on the automatic mail check?). I am running it on a desktop
that I never put to sleep.

Version: 3.2.0-0ubuntu2

GConf error: Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error:
Method "Set" with signature "s(ii)" on interface
"org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't exist

GConf error: Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error:
Method "LookupExtended" with signature "ssb" on interface
"org.gnome.GConf.Database" doesn't exist

Title:
  Evolution throws up various GConf error dialogs

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Evolution seems to throw up various GConf error dialogs, and I think
  that it may be related to waking from sleep. One example is "GConf
  error: Configuration server couldn't be contacted: D-BUS error: Method
  "Set" with signature "s(ib)" on interface "org.gnome.GConf.Database"
  doesn't exist". There are other messages, similar, but different. In
  my case, there are about a dozen such error dialogs, and in some
  cases, it required that I killall the Evolution process to regain
  control.
