[Evolution] Evolution 2.2.2 on Solaris 10

[Ian Baines <ximian ianbaines org>]

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade the Solaris 10 (Sparc) built in Evolution 
(1.4.6) to Evolution 2.2.2 using the Blastwave.org build and am 
having problems getting it going. I have addressed this issue 
to the Blastwave.org users list but so far have not resolved 
the problem.

I am trying to run under the standard Solaris 10 Gnome 
which is based on Gnome 2.6.

The built-in Evolution 1.4.6 runs fine. The install of the csw 
(Blastwave.org) package (pkg-get install evolution) goes OK.

I close Evolution 1.4.6 & run evolution --force-shutdown to clean up.

When I start up Evolution 2.2.2 I get the following:-

[ian amazon ~]$/opt/csw/bin/evolution
es menu class init
evolution-shell-Message: Killing old version of 
evolution-data-server...

(evolution:2116): e-error.c-WARNING **: No parent set, or 
default parent available for error dialog

A pop up error window appears which contains the message 
"Evolution can not start. Your system configuration does not 
match your evolution configuration. Click Help for details 
(With a Help and Quit button.)"

(Clicking Help brings up Firefox with a blank page at 
support.ximian.com. Quit does have the desired effect.)

No Evolution related processes are left running.

Firstly, does anyone know specifically what these error 
messages mean and how to resolve them.

Secondly, are there any issues with running Evolution 2.2.2 under 
Gnome 2.6 rather than a later version? Could there be gconf issues?

Thirdly, does anyone else have this combination running?

Any help in resolving this would be appreciated.

Ian
