           Summary: Automatic calender (Korganizer) update leads to Kontact
                    crash
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

Version:           3.5.9 (using KDE 3.5.10)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

This morning I updated KDE 3.5.10  to the latest version via the rpms from the
KDE repository of Opensuse. I am using Opensuse 10.3. The KDE version is 3.5.10
"release 28.1". 
Kontact interacts with an OX5 Open-Xchange server (commercial version, SP4 U1). 

I now get permanent crashes of Kontact when the calender (Korganizer) is open
(!) as the active page/sub-application of Kontact and when an
update/synchronization of the calendar entries is performed with the groupware
server. The data update process itself seems to initiate and maybe finalizes,
but any subsequent mouse click into the Kontact application triggers the crash.
The crash also happens when you run Korganizer as a standalone application. 

The crash occurs after any automatic update/synchronization processes of the
calendar with the groupware server (in my case Openexchange OX5). (I have set a
certain period for automatic reloads from the server; automatic saving for new
calendar entries is deactivated). 
However, a crash also occurs when you click on the ox Kalendar ressource
(reload) and thus initiate a manual data download from the server. The bug
therefore can easily be reproduced.  

No crash occurs when any other application of Kontact (e.g. Kmail) is open
during the regular update processes with the groupware server. 

So I think this is a Kontact/Korganizer bug which seems to be specific for the
present KDE 3.5.10 release:   

For comparison I tested the automatic update behaviour of Kontact
/Kalender/Korganizer of a previous KDE version - version 3.5.9 "release 53.4".
There everything works flawless and smooth. 

Below you find the crash report :
