Dear all, today after an attempt of adding a new calendar korganizer has crashed and from that moment on it is impossible to access to the GUI and to my data. Doesn't a matter if I launch it from the tray, from the commandline or from the menu.
When I try to launch it I get the following message:
korganizer KCrash: Application 'korganizer' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/libexec/kde4/drkonqi from kdeinit sock_file=/home/cazzola/.kde/socket-surtur/kdeinit4__0
and the KDE crash handler starts but no way to send a track bug (the crash handler itself crashes).
I've tried to cancel the sockets files, the configuration files and to clear the cache but without success.
korganizer has always worked (up to this morning) and contains all my appointments and I'd like to have it working again.
I've not had this problem in korganizer, but I have seen it with other kontact modules. I find that the best thing is to killall kontact and wait a few seconds, after which everything works again. I assume that something that should have shut down is still open, and this seems to find it.
Alternatively, it usually works if you open system monitor (Ctrl-Esc) and put korganizer into the search bar. You'll probably find a slave hanging around, and if you can kill it there that should clear things.
