Possibly related: this happens when I attempt the steps with gdb:

org.kde.pim.incidenceeditor: free slot calculation: invalid range. range(  0 ) / mSlotResolutionSeconds( 900 ) =  0
QIODevice::read (QLocalSocket): device not open
QIODevice::read (QLocalSocket): device not open

Still a bug for me with latest kde.

Comment 3 Allen Winter 2025-05-08 20:41:38 UTC

I don't see what this has to do with KOrganizer.
maybe the OP meant Kaddressbook?

if this still happens with a modern kontact version (like version 6.4 or above)
please open a new bug under kaddressbook.
