Hello,
I'm using Gentoo Linux and currently KDE 4.7.4. Gentoo updated akonadi-server from version 1.6.2 to version 1.7.1. As a result kmail is not able to access any mail anymore ![]() I'm using a local IMAP server (cyrus-imap) which kmail connects to. My ~/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc looks like this:
When starting akonadi manually (akonadictl start) I'm getting a lot of error messages:
I also ran mysql_upgrade but without any success. When blocking akonadi-server version 1.7.1 and going back to version 1.6.2 everything works fine. As a workaround I switched to Thunderbird but I would like to go back to KDE-PIM and kmail. Oliver |

Please try removing ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf as it seems that InnoDB is running at an insufficient level for some reason for writes to occur to the database, which I suspect is related to an out of date configuration.

Thanks for your fast reply, unfortunately it didn't help.
I stopped akonadi (akonadictl stop), moved ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf to a backup folder, updated akonadi-server to version 1.7.1 and started akonadi again (akonadictl start). Same error messages, the newly created ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf is identical to the old version. The system was set up from scratch in February (new hardware), I only kept my home directory. In addition I switched Linux from 32 to 64 bit, but KDE version didn't change (I was using v4.7.4 32 bit on the old system and now v4.7.4 64 bit). Maybe this is important. But with akonadi-server version 1.6.2 everything worked fine. Oliver |

Sorry, you seem to have been hit by http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=40360
You may need to manually the previously mentioned mysql.conf file to restore the ability of MySQL to be used by Akonadi. I do not know why this has occurred unfortunately.

The bug you mentioned is more than 3 years old. I'm using mysql 5.1.61 and it should be fixed in this version. However, I don't know MySQL and have no idea what to change in my mysql.conf. This is my ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf:
Thanks so far, Oliver |

Under the [mysql] section, please try adding:

My ~/.local/share/akonadi/mysql.conf has two [mysqld] sections:
I added binlog_format=row after the first [mysqld] and... it worked! No error messages at all after starting akonadi and kmail is able to access all mails. Great! Thank you very much for your help! Now I can open a new thread and try to find a solution for my search problem with kmail... ![]() Oliver |
