Re: [Evolution] Calendar Birthdays and Appointments



I see the Personal and addressbook but cannot get back to my contacts
in Birthdays, I had about 15 contacts entered in there. It would not
import so I entered them by hand. How can I restore them.

You are right. I have the Flatpak. Where should I see the list of
Calendars? At the top left I see Birthdays and Anniverseries below
the
Personal and contacts. Does that change the Calendar?

Thank you.Richard

  Hi,
that can be because the Birthdays are provided by
Birthdays&Anniversaries calendar, not by the On This
Computer/Personal
calendar. These are shown in the calendar if the corresponding
calendar
is checked in the list of calendars on the left.

You claimed you use Evolution 3.32.2, but it looks like you use
the
3.32.3 from Flatpak. Is that correct? At least using Flatpak
changes
a
lot of things, the directories are different and the overall work
and
the way to debug things is very different from the host-system
installed Evolution.

In the Flatpak version, usual path to store user data is in:
   ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution/data/evolution/calendar/system/
That's where the On This Computer/Personal stores its data.
The system-calendar.source file is stored in:
   ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution/config/evolution/sources/

there any thing I can do in simple language to solve this? I am
afraid to go into the code you have sent because I might mess
up
more than I cured.

If we are talking about the Flatpak version, then you cannot
break
much. If you do not have much data setup in the Flatpak version,
then
I'd suggest to start from scratch, that is:
a) restart the machine (this will make sure no background
processes
   related to the Flatpak version of Evolution are running)
b) rename the Flatpak version directory, thus the next time you
   start Evolution it will create it from scratch. You can do it
with:
   $ mv ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution
~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution.bak
c) start the Flatpak version of Evolution. There will be no data,
no
   accounts, just nothing, but there should not be any errors
like
before
   as well. You can always return back to the previous Flatpak
version
   data when you run these two commands, ideally after restart
(see
a)):
   $ mv ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution
~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution.new
   $ mv ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution.bak
~/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution

Hope it helps to fix the system-calendar error.
  Bye,
  Milan
