Description Jörn S. 2012-10-22 10:54:53 UTC 
Application: akonadi_googlecalendar_resource (4.9)
KDE Platform Version: 4.9.2
Qt Version: 4.8.2
Operating System: Linux 3.6.2-4.fc17.i686 i686
Distribution: "Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle)"

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:

When KDE starts, I get multiple crashes. When I restart akonadi manually via akonadiclt restart, I get

reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there.

"/usr/bin/akonadi_googlecalendar_resource" crashed too often and will not be restarted! 


- Custom settings of the application:

I had my Google Calendar akonadi resource configured and it worked (no crashes). I installed Zanshin as an alternative ToDo list manager and replaced the default ToDo manager in Kontact. The crashes appear since Zanshin was installed.

The crash can be reproduced every time.

Comment 1 Daniel Vrátil 2012-10-22 11:25:53 UTC 
Could you please attach gdb to the akonadi_googlecalendar_resource process and try to obtain a backtrace from where the exception has been thrown ("catch throw")? See [0] for more details on how to do this.

I'm aware of the crash (there are more duplicate reports), but I was unable to get the exact location in code from which the exception comes.

Comment 3 Jörn S. 2012-10-22 12:18:44 UTC 
I attached the gdb output to this bugreport. If you have follow-up questions: the session is still open. 

I also noticed this in the akonadi output, can't say if it is related:
Error during executing query "INSERT INTO CollectionTable (remoteId, remoteRevision, name, parentId, resourceId, cachePolicyInherit) VALUES (:0, :1, :2, :3, :4, :5)" :  "Duplicate entry '26-Master Thess' for key 'CollectionTable_parentAndNameIndex' QMYSQL3: Unable to execute statement"
Comment 4 Daniel Vrátil 2012-10-22 12:41:58 UTC 
Thank you very much for the GDB output. Regarding the error - if "Master Thess" is a collection in Google Calendar hen it might be related, otherwise it's related to respective resource to which the collection belongs.
Comment 5 Jörn S. 2012-10-22 12:49:07 UTC 
"Master Thesis" (I do not know why it is misspelled in the Akonadi output) is a todo item which I created in the Google Calendar resource with several sub-todo-items. Hope this helps!
Comment 6 Daniel Vrátil 2012-10-22 12:59:19 UTC 
The output indicates that the problem is when creating a new collection. Anyway, if you are sure there's no other "Master Thess...." collection, please open a new bug for this issue.

I'll close this bug as a duplicate of the original report of this crash, but rest assured I wouldn't solve it without your backtrace ;)
