[Kolab-devel] [issue4833] VirtualBox Suspend Timejump during sync causes sync to hang until aborted

[aheinecke]

Assigned to emanuel for triage.

Version: enterprise35 20120322.0d8ab49

1. Start Kontact
2. Quit machine and save machine state
3. Wait a minute or so (theres probably a timeout check involved as this did not
happen on shorter intervals)
4. Start the machine again
5. Hit Synchronise before the KDE clock jumps to the new time.

-> Kontact starts to sync, then during the sync the clock jumps and the sync
fails an error message pops up: 
"The connection to the server Kolab-Server was unexpectedly closed or timed out.
It will be re-established automatically if possible."

You have the option to never show this message again, making this dangerous for
hidden errors.

The Synchronise progress bar stays at 0%
The Status bar reads "The connection to account Kolab-Server was broken."

Hitting Sync again will not unblock this!
You are still able to send mail. 
Afterwards the status bar no longer shows that the connection was lost.

Only by expanding the progress bar and canceling the sync or by restarting
Kontact you can unblock it. See attached screenshot as an example for what i
mean by progress bar.
