[Akonadi] [Bug 326188] Akonadi server fails to start when home is in AFS on KDE 4.8.5, Kubuntu 12.04 amd64
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326188 --- Comment #8 from Daniel Vrátil dvra...@redhat.com --- You don't have to remove the MySQL package. Stop Akonadi (akonadictl stop), start Akonadi Server KCM (kcmshell4 akonadi_server), select PostgreSQL driver and configure it. Then delete ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data and ~/.local/share/akonadi/file_db_data and ~/.config/akonadi. Then start Akonadi (akonadictl start) and you should be running against PostgreSQL. You will have to recreate all settings though and Akonadi will have to download everything again. We only support MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite backends, but SQLite is NOT recommended due to miserable performance. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
[Akonadi] [Bug 326188] Akonadi server fails to start when home is in AFS on KDE 4.8.5, Kubuntu 12.04 amd64
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326188 --- Comment #5 from u1...@hushmail.com --- I have now also tried to move the whole folders ~/.config ~/.local ~/.kde from AFS to the local harddrive (ext4) but the problem is the same. Is it not strange that it complains with the following: stderr: Could not open required defaults file: /afs/mydomain/myuser/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted because the file /afs/mydomain/myuser/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf is there and is readable both by myuser and by root). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

Maybe MySQL simply refuses to read anything from a network filesystem. Anyway, this is obviously a problem in MySQL not in Akonadi, so closing as UPSTREAM. Please take this to MySQL forum/mailing list, maybe they will be able to help you. You can also try with PostgreSQL, maybe they support AFS. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326188 --- Comment #7 from u1...@hushmail.com --- Sorry for being stupid, but how do I change so that Akonadi uses PostgreSQL instead of MySQL? I have now installed the packet akonadi-backend-postgresql but if I try to remove the package akonadi-backend-mysql the system also wants to remove akonadi-server. Any other database management system would be fine too if PostgreSQL is not a suitable. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Kdepim-bugs mailing list Kdepim-bugs@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326188 --- Comment #4 from u1...@hushmail.com --- (In reply to comment #3) Bit of a googling revealed ([0], [1]), that MySQL actually might not work on AFS, so there's nothing we can do about this. [0] http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~bolo/notes/mysql.html [1] http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/16170 But MySQL should work since the MySQL files are not stored in AFS since I have made symbolic links for the folders ~/.config/akonadi and ~/.local/share/akonadi to the local harddrive (ext4) and the MySQL files that Akonadi uses seem to be stored in /local/myuser/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/mysql/: $ df -h /local/myuser/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/mysql/.
