    If I open pidgin and wait about 1 minute it crashes everytime.

    I tried to install 1.18.2.0 of sipe, but Norton thinks it's a virus and since I'm on a corporate network I can't make it ignore it.

    The debug log is not providing enough information. You'll need to provide a debugger backtrace which shows the full call stack with parameters.

    If you can't do that then your only option is to disable publishing calendar information in the account setting and then hope your account will never be upgraded to Lync 2013 with UCS...

    Hi Stefan,

    I have what appears to be the same problem with version 1.18.2.0 running Windows 7. I posted the debug to the forum about two weeks ago and have not seen a response. I have the pidgin.rpt file, but I do not want to post it to the public forum. Can I email it to you?

    Thanks,

    Peter

      Sorry, but I can't find your post with the debug ouput. Can you provide the URL?

      I don't know what a ".rpt" file is. so I don't know if it is helpful or not.

      I need the --debug output from Pidgin and a stack backtrace from the debugger at the point of the crash. In worse case you may have to recompile SIPE without optimization (-O0), because otherwise the stack backtrace might be unusable.

    For the future: please mention that you upgraded from 1.18.0 (or older) to 1.18.1 (or newer) and then you start to see a crash. That would have made it clear that it was a regression.

    I installed the patch yesterday and it appears to be working great! Thanks very much.
