Comment 1 Allen Winter 2009-05-29 22:39:21 UTC

what version of libical do you have?

version 0.43 or higher is recommended.

Comment 2 wampyr.web 2009-05-30 12:08:31 UTC

I have libical 0.43-1. 
The problem seems to be in opening calendars file. I don't need remove settings, but only .ics for successful start.

Comment 3 Allen Winter 2009-05-30 14:43:07 UTC

hmm.. ok, I guess we need a sample of the ics file that causes the crash.

could you paste it here?  or attach it?

the file is ~/.kde/share/apps/korganizer/std.ics

Comment 4 wampyr.web 2009-05-30 16:17:17 UTC

Created attachment 34125 [details]
a std.ics

This is an example std.ics

Comment 5 Allen Winter 2009-05-31 01:28:21 UTC

I'm not seeing any crashes or other problems with the sample std.ics file you attached.

looks like something the backtrace is showing the crash in a timezone routine, so maybe you need to attach another sample that includes the VTIMEZONE sections in your std.ics file.

Comment 6 wampyr.web 2009-05-31 09:43:43 UTC

If timezone is set in Settings/Configure/Time and date, I have no choice here. Only [No selection] typed here. If I look into System settings/Date & Time, I have here only UTC timezone. Maybe this is source of this crashes?

Comment 7 Allen Winter 2009-05-31 14:06:09 UTC

yeah, that's not good.  you should be able to select from dozens and dozens of timezones.

better get that fixed first. although I really don't know how to help with that problem.

Comment 8 wampyr.web 2009-06-01 22:23:57 UTC

Yeah, these crashes was caused by missing timezones. I haven't installed two packages (dash and libfetch - I don't know if this contain timezones) so I made reinstall the "base" group (from archlinux repository). 
I had empty /usr/share/zoneinfo but now here is dozens of files and in system settings is dozens of choices. Korganizer is now working OK.
Thank you for your help.
