[later] I see the panel was refreshed after 50m but input was still not accepted and the display will not refresh. It resolved after 70m. After this is seems to be OK, I can read mail etc. To be sure, I made a copy of the profile where I deleted all the .msf files and observed the same thing. I tried this a few times. It is not just a one-off post-upgrade process. After it recovers and works, if I shut tb down and launch it then it repeats the problem. There are not too many emails here, maybe a few tens of thousand totaling just over 1GB (a few mailing lists). My main mail client is on another machine, still running tb 91, and not showing this problem. Searching the 'net I did not find a relevant report, where should I look? BTW, after reading the release notes, seeing the structural changes, I wonder if it is at all possible to downgrade to v91? TIA (*) "not refreshed" means the panel is not painted after minimize/restore, showing only a border.
A progress update. After trying a few solutions (unsuccessfully) I compared an empty profile (working, created as a test) to the bad one (hanging) and started moving some control files (file in the root of the profile) across. The last thing I did was replace the calendar-data with the one from the empty profile and this solved the problem. I was not using the calendar for a few years so completely forgot it is there.

[later] No, copying in a fresh cache file did not help, I needed to copy in a fresh local.sqlite As I see it, there is an issue with the upgrade process where the (v91) calendar is somehow incompatible with the new version. I can understand a once-off long conversion of the database but not a permanent (every startup) process. Luckily I did not need to keep the calendar data. BTW, I do not know if the calendar-data/backup is something I created or tb created during an update, but the last file there is named local.v22.sqlite with a date matching the update to v91. There is no backup file from the recent v102 update. Next I need to update my main mail machine which has much more data, and I am still hesitant... -- Eyal Lebedinsky (fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
