Bug#802450: icedove: Icedove is still running after an exit

[Cedric 321]

Hello Carsten,

Thank you for your fast response.

I have done:
$ mv ~/.icedove ~/old_icedove


I have tried this two commands:
$ strace -e file -f -s2048 -o /tmp/icedove_dbg.txt icedove



=>icedove-activity_problem.log
=>icedove_dbg_problem.txt

To have no probems, i let it make.
=>icedove-activity_correct.log
=>icedove_dbg_correct.txt

I have configured my email address cedric...@gmx.fr after a new start of icedove. $ NSPR_LOG_MODULES=IMAP:5,SMTP:5 NSPR_LOG_FILE=~/icedove-activity.log icedove To have the probem, i have closed it few times after start it (Icedove is still searching messages on email address). I notice that it doesn't " unlink("/home/cedric/.icedove/q8n4qwsr.default/lock") = 0 " when the problem arrives.

Dear Maintainer,

Since the last update of Icedove, sometimes it does not closed correctly. I see
this message:
"Icedove is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you
must first close the existing Icedove process, or restart your system."

This problem arrives each time i closed it few times after start it (Icedove is
still searching messages on email address).

I join a gdb.log.

a GDB log is not very useful here as there is no segfault happen. But
you can look at the activity of Icedove with some environment variables.

https://wiki.debian.org/Icedove#Debugging_Icedove_Activity

If you don't write the output to a log file (just skip the part
'NSPR_LOG_FILE=~/*.log') you will probaly see why Icedove is already
running.

Regards
Carsten
