Guys this bug should be highest priority, it is a SHOWSTOPPER!! An operating system without mail and addresses is doomed! Such a fragile Framework such as akonadi shoud be removed from the distro at this stage of development, it messes it up! Not only for newcomers, I have accumulated hundrets of addresses o9ver the past years and currently cannot access them!!! this is crazy!
I have installed Lucid on 3 computers, and on non of them akonadi works. All 3 have been new installes but used home dirs from 9.04 and 8.04 kubuntu. I have tried a lot of things that I found on the web. Some of them could fix the problem only temporarily. (like putting the path on XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share:/usr/share:/usr/local/share or autostart akonadi). After I put exported XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share:/usr/share:/usr/local/share my old addresses showed up but the next time I logged in akonadi was dead again, showing me some database issues. checking strigi in Nepomog config worked for 1 session then nothing worked anymore, but I am not sure whether strigi has been the reason as it appears inactive!? autostart akonadi did not work Below some more logs in the hope this might help. Here is akonadiserver.error: Database process exited unexpectedly during initial connection! executable: "/usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi" arguments: ("--defaults-file=/home/joerg/.local/share/akonadi//mysql.conf", "--datadir=/home/joerg/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/", "--socket=/home/joerg/.local/share/akonadi/db_misc/mysql.socket") stdout: "" stderr: "" exit code: 1 process error: "Unknown error" Here is a log after $ akonadictl start [akonadiserver] /usr/bin/mysqlcheck: Got error: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/home/xxx/.local/share/akonadi/db_misc/mysql.socket' (2) when trying to connect [akonadiserver] FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed [akonadiserver] Database process exited unexpectedly during initial connection! comment mysql.socket does not exist in '/home/xxx/.local/share/akonadi/db_misc/' ** Attachment added: "akonadi first log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/51461776/akonadi_failed.txt -- cant find resource agents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554514 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to akonadi in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
