Just made some triaging, it seems to be, this time, i the line:
[General]
...
Current View=Month
...
which made things break,removing it makes kontact start.
Anne can you reproduce this?
I doubt if it's coincidence that my preferred view is month - so you could
well be right. This is what happened with my experiments.
I removed korganizerrc and restarted kontact. No problem.
I changed to Calendar and set it to Month view. Then closed kontact.
Restarted kontact - except that it didn't start.
Opened korganizerrc in kwrite, changed Month to Week. Kontact didn't start.
Removed korganizerrc. Kontact didn't start. KOrganizer wouldn't start as
stand-alone either.
I started closing windows with a view to restarting the desktop, but tried
Kontact once more, just before doing the restart - Kontact started. I'm
assuming that korganizer was using a cached rc at the time that it wouldn't
start.
Interestingly, it started in Week mode. On checking the rc I find that there
is no line setting the mode.
