Calendar will not launch under Mojave. It starts to load then crashes.

Like Ronald Stephens from Nov 2018, https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8611349, my calendar loads to a blank calendar, then it says it is Updating calendars, then crashes at the 3/4 point on the third or fourth blue updating screen. I then get this message of why it crashed:


Time Awake Since Boot: 420 seconds


System Integrity Protection: enabled


Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread


Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT)

Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000

Exception Note: EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY


Application Specific Information:

dyld3 mode

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: '*** +[CalEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:inManagedObjectContext:obtainPermanentID:]: could not obtain permanent id for BirthdayCalendar with error Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134020 "The model configuration used to open the store is incompatible with the one that was used to create the store." UserInfo={NSUnderlyingException=Can't resolve how to assign objects to stores; Coordinator does not have any stores}'

terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

abort() called


Unfortunately, Mr. Stephens never reported back on whether or not he or Apple solved his problem.


To re-cap all the suggestions on that original post and on others;

Yes, Calendar launches successfully in a new admin account.

No, Calendar does not launch successfully in Safe Mode.

No, Calendar does not launch successfully after a re-install of the OS.


Observations-

1-When launching in a new Admin acct, Calendar does not try to update the calendars.

2-Mr. Stephens and my Crash Reports both state the same issue, "could not obtain permanent id for BirthdayCalendar..."


If creating a new Admin acct "solves" the problem, can I not simply keep the new acct and delete the old one?

To trouble shoot further you can:


Try a SafeBoot https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262

Takes noticeable longer to get to the login screen, does a 5-15 minute disk repair before it fully boots up, and certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, including dynamic loader cache, etc. Login and test. Reboot and test as caches get rebuilt.

This test will tell you if third party interference; extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.
