Please,is there any other way to get the connector? Will it work with actual releases of Evolution, 2.12?

[multiuser]

hi

i have the problem too!
i need the connector for evolution?

where is it? please help - thanx!

[Valerion]

It is part of the Scalix download. Look inside the server package and you should see it. There's an RPM and a .tgz in the RHEL5 download, and I am certain the others have it too.

For evolution 2.24 the sources provided cause compile error due changes into the evolution libraries. I made a patch for scalix to make it work (tested with evolution 2.24.2 on ubuntu):

[multiuser]

hi

i have a problem:

# rpm -ievolution-scalix-11.4.2.105-ev28.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libcamel-1.2.so.0 is needed by evolution-scalix-11.4.2.105-1.i386

whats this?

[echelon]

Do you have evolution-devel installed?

Depending on your version of Evolution and Linux you may be better off compiling from scratch.

[multiuser]

yes, evolution-devel is installed??!! same error

[Beaujolais]

Based on the above patch by mbrigl I've created patch for version 107 of the connector that is shipped with scalix 11.4.3 - evolution-scalix-11.4.3.107

[napfkarl]

When I use the patch from Beaujolais, evolution-scalix can be compiled successful, and I can see even Calendar and Contacts.
But as soon as I try to delete or move a message, evolution crashes.
When I start evolution from a terminal window, I can see the following error message after the crash:

camel-sx-provider:ERROR:camel-scalix-utils.c:253:uidset_add: assertion failed: (index < messages->len)
Aborted

Can someone give me any hint?

[Beaujolais]

Yeah, I'm fighting the same issue

[thatitguy]

I suspect it's related to some of the variable names changing in Evolution; I created a separate thread regarding the instability here:
viewtopic.php?t=12438&highlight=evolution

I'd love to get this resolved, even though I suspect it's actually an Evolution issue not necessarily a Scalix issue.
