evolution for windows vista
 
Hi everybody!I'm newbie...

I have a problem to use email client evolution 2.22....in windows vista...when i launch the program it says that: "Your system configuration does not match your Evolution configuration"


I do some searching in the evolution website in FAQ...but they gave a solution in linux way I think...as below:-

What does "Your system configuration does not match your Evolution configuration" mean?
This means that the system configuration is not what it should be for the application to run well. To fix this, you must be root and edit the file /etc/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-config.xml by adding the line
<item>$PREFIX/lib/bonobo/servers</item>
in the <searchpath> section. After this, kill the process "bonobo-activation-server" and restart Evolution.

Is there anyway I could use this evolution in my Vista...its for my office...

Or is there any procedure to solve this problem in windows...

Please help me....

Thanks...

I had this same issue on Windows Vista. I did as the instructions explained and had good luck with Evolution Working again on my Vista box. I edited the file in question using "wordpad". It doesn't let you save it directly so I renamed the current file .old and then copied my edited .xml file directly into the location specified in the instructions.
