Akonadi runs an instance of mariadb for its own use, without reference to what else might be running on the machine. I've never had to run mysql_upgrade before, and I can't find a way to do it manually because of this in .local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf: # Do not listen for TCP/IP connections at all skip_networking Maybe I could comment that out temporarily, but I don't know what else might be affected. Otherwise it looks like creating a new user for myself and importing the message archive. Another strange thing is that I sent the root message of this thread to the kdepim-users list as well, and referred to it later, but there's been not a squeak from anyone there. -- Regards, Peter.
