I have a problem with kontact at logon. When you logoff from a session without
closing kontact first, and then log back on, I get the standard prompt from
kwallet and another prompt stating the following.

'Kontact already seems to be running on another display on this machine. Running
Kontact more than once can cause the loss of mail. You should not start Kontact
unless you are sure that it is not already running.'

Then there's two prompts. Selecting 'Start Kontact' and then entering my
passphrase in kwallet will start two instances of kontact. Selecting 'Exit' will
not start kontact at all.

Furthermore, with the two instances of kontact running, closing one will close
the other as well, probably because it crashes. In the end, I have to manually
start kontact again anyway.

Here's a copy of the crash dump of the crash I mentioned.

Do you have kontact to start twice?

I had set kontact to autostart in my .kde/Autostart dir and also as part of a
saved session, and I saw this exact behaviour.

I don't have kontact set to autostart. Not sure what you mean by saved session.
This behavior happens to me when I leave kontact open when logging off and then
logging back on.

Hi,

I have the same problem as described by Andres, and I don't have kontact in .kde/Autostart/

If you have an IMAP based address book, this could be causing a start at login
if the "Contacts" plugin of KRunner (ALT+F2 thingy) is enabled.

The reason is that the plugin accesses the addressbook which in turn needs to
access the IMAP addressbook which in turn needs KMail (stand-alone or in
Kontact) to provide the IMAP access.

Cheers,
Kevin

Hi,

I don't have an IMAP based Adressebook, but an FTP based calendar. So normally no call to kmail. But thanks for your hint I will have a closer look at KRunner.

Gerard

Hi,

you reported http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=523363 some time
ago. Since then, KDE Software Compilation had several releases. Can you please
verify whether the bug you reported is still present in a more current version
(and - if yes - specify which version)?

This bug appears only when an akonadi contact resource is present. If
not, Kontact starts normally at logon but the contact component does
not work (ubuntu bug 564263)
