SOLUTION: Evolution stop working with OWA

Out of the blue my Evolution stopped working today.
After browsing some forums with no success... I finally found a light:

sudo apt-get remove evolution
mv .local/share/evolution .local/share/evolution_bkp
sudo apt-get install evolution

and... Voila!

I don't know yet all the implications of this, but for now I'm so happy that I can see my messages again, and I don't have to use windows that I decided to post it here. If I find anything new I will update this post.

Cheers...

PS: Ubuntu 11.10

Page Object Pattern + WebDriver + Spring

During the last week I had start creating a test suite for a existing web-application which my team is currently working on. So now is good time to share some experience: The application A normal old java web application: Java 1.4, Struts 1.1, EJB 2.1, JDBC to persist the data and the anemic design (VO+BO+DAO) but I will talk about in another post... Page Object Pattern To map the web page's components inside the test code I used the page object pattern. This patterns helped me to eliminate duplicated code to access web-page's components. Basically it consists of classes that maps web-pages, so that if you want to fill a login form from your test classes instead of doing this: @Test public void someTest() throws Exception { WebElement userNameField = driver.findElement(By.name("j_username")); userNameField.sendKeys(username); WebElement passwordField = driver.findElement(By.name("j_password")); passwordField

Thunderbird with Microsoft OWA in Ubuntu 11.10

So, you as I are tired of Evolution's problems in Ubuntu 11.10 ? Move on to Thunderbird... To have it working with Microsoft OWA following the these steps: Install DavMail Download and install DavMail . It will act as a proxy between Thunderbird and your Microsoft webmail. Configure DavMail Some tips: Exchange 2003: https://mail.company.com/exchange/ Exchange 2007 Webdav mode: https://mail.company.com/owa/ Exchange 2007 EWS mode: https://mail.company.com/owa/ Exchange 2010 EWS mode: https://mail.company.com/owa/ Exchange 2010 EWS mode with unsupported authentication form e.g. Windows Live login:https://mail.company.com/ews/exchange.asmx In my case as I'm behind a proxy I had to mark the option "Use system proxy settings" in the Proxy tab: Click save then you should see a message in your system tray, saying that DavMail is correctly configured.

How to avoid losing a unused terminal command line

This morning I got a great tip... I typed a command in my terminal but I wanted to run another command before executing the line that I just typed without loosing the information in the current line. For instance: I typed in my terminal the command: git commit -am "Unit test for scenarios A, B and C" But I was not sure if I was committing just the scenarios A, B and C that I have changed, I would like to run a git diff before committing but also without losing my committing message... Then my friend Duck told me to put a # in the begging of the line and... voilà! # git commit -am "Unit test for scenarios A, B and C" It transform the line in a comment, so that I could hit enter without executing the commit and that line went to my history so that I could recovery it. Thanks Duck.
