Description David 2021-10-20 17:19:05 UTC
SUMMARY
If I log out of my plasma session and then log in again, some apps will stop working properly, such as "evolution" (mail client). This does not happen in other DEs so I doubt the bug is from evolution.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch a default plasma session.
2. Log out through Ctrl+Alt+Del or similar.
3. Log in again with the same user and everything else the same.
4. Launch evolution.

OBSERVED RESULT
Evolution does not log in to anything.

EXPECTED RESULT
Evolution should keep working, just like in the default session.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Is the problem limited to Evolution, or does it affect other apps too? When you say it "does not log into anything", is that because it can't connect to the internet? Do you see this issue with other apps as well?

So far, I haven't noticed any other app presenting problems like this, but then again I don't use other apps that would log in to online services. I'm attaching a screenshot of the problems it throws, which happen also with option "--force-online". Clicking the "reconnect" button and going throw the gmail authorization dialog again has no effect (I do not receive a security alert from it, and it does not log in to my email in evolution).

Are you using the systemd startup? You can find out with `kreadconfig5 --file startkderc --group General --key systemdBoot`

If you're not using it, you can turn it on with `kwriteconfig5 --file startkderc --group General --key systemdBoot true` and then reboot.

Can you try that and see if it fixes the issue for you? If so, you might just want to stick with systemd boot. If not, it will probably be fixed by https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1177.

Switching to systemd start didn't solve it, and introduced a new issue: if I set it to systemd start, log in, launch evolution, close it, log out, and launch evolution again, next time I restart the system it takes a very long time for plasma to start.

OK, in that case this will have been fixed by the fix for Bug 433293.
