What version of Thunderbird, Lightning, and Provider for Google Calendar do you use?

The 2nd error might be Bug 1189109 that ought to be fixed in Lightning 4.5 after 2015-08-26.

[:Ms2ger (he/him; ⌚ UTC+1/+2)]

Thunderbird 38.2.0 from the Ubuntu repos
Lightning 4.0.2
Provider for Google Calendar 1.0.4

I also got the same symptoms and error. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Thunderbird 38.3.0 from Ubuntu repos, Lightning 4.0.3.1, Provider for Google Calendar 1.0.4

In my case the freeze was 100% CPU intensive. I had to restrict the CPU frequency, otherwise my Thinkpad X201 would do an emergency shutdown due to high CPU temperature.

The problem disappeared after letting Thunderbird do its magical things for 30 minutes or so. After that CPU load went down to normal and everything works again.

Strange...

[Elias Aarnio]

Correction to my previous message: CPU load did not sink. Top is still showing 99-100% for Thunderbird. I guess it is one core. 

I'll try to dig into this. What info should I deliver?

Comment 5

In my case the problem was caused by Google birthday calendar. After unsubscribing it the problem disappeared. 

I do not know what exactly causes the behaviour. The birthday calendar contains only the birthdays of Google contacts so the information value is about zero. Who the heck would tell Google a real birthday?

ms2ger, do you also have this?

[:Ms2ger (he/him; ⌚ UTC+1/+2)]

Sorry, forgot to mention. I'd subscribed to a google-hosted MoCo calendar through the ICS link (I believe). Subscribing with the gcal addon helped.

I surprisingly started getting this broken behavior after upgrading from TB52 -> TB60.

Builds up to current stable 60.4.0 have not improved the situation.

I just discovered my calendar malfunction is caused by the same underlying issue: subscribing a Google calendar via ICS. I can provide a link to any interested party capable of repairing this.
