Just found out, that ALL my plugins were gone and I had to RE-load them all! Andrew (now - of course - fancy viewer - does its job again as before, but address book is still gone ...) This is more like a mailing list message than a bug report, closing because of this. You probably lost the addrbook--index.xml file. If you have the addrbook--index.xml.bak file, use that by removing the .bak suffix. Otherwise you can rebuild the file by hand, its format is simple. |
Created attachment 1352 [details] gdb of claws-mail (after the crash after new boot, address book is still gone, fancy viewer does not work any more) Hello, at start, a failure notice about a missing address book came up (some XML files containing addresses are still there), 'fancy viewer' does not show any html features any more, later on Claws-mail crashed and the whole ubuntu saucy salamander amd64 froze, had to push the power button. Silly question (18 months newbie at Linux): Is there a 'repair' function somewhere? About me: Using PCs since 1982, first DOS, then Windoze, new notebook since May 2012 64-bit came with WIN 7, deleted the whole thing and installed Ubuntu 12.04 amd64 in September 2012, since then using claws-mail (and liking it!!!), now Ubuntu 13.10 amd64 is installed and up to date. Update for claws-mail 3.9.3 made by ppa. GDB result is attached. Thank you so much and be well, Andreas (German: Andreas)
