Evolution calendar and contact problems.

Afternoon All,

Sometime since I installed evo 1.4.4 under Gnome 2.2 and since
upgraded to 1.4.5 under Gnome 2.4.1 I lost access to my calendar.  Since
upgrading to 1.4.5 I've also lost access to my contacts (including LDAP
contacts).  Evolution says;

For local contacts;
We were unable to open this addressbook.  Please check that the
path exists and that you have permission to access it.

For LDAP;
We were unable to open this addressbook.  This either
means you have entered an incorrect URI, or the LDAP server
is unreachable.

For Calendar;
Could not open the folder in
'file:///usr/home/carl/evolution/local/Calendar'

The directories ~/evolution/local/[Contacts|Calendar] are all owned by me
and are writable.

The LDAP server works fine in Balsa and Pine.

I've tried deleting my ~/evolution directory completely and letting
evolution recreate it with no joy.

Can anyone give me some hints on where to start debugging this?


Thanks,

Carl.
