Hey,

first post here. Hello everyone.

[edit: I failed in using the "Guided Posting"-Thing, could you please move this thread to the appropriate forum? I think Kontact&PIM is correct", sorry for the mess... ]

I'm having a problem with my akonadi_davgroupware_resource (ownCloud)

The akonadi_davgroupware_resource starts blowing up my Calendar. At the moment, it increased the amount of calendar items from ~180 to 1.310.879 items, which creates a collection size of over 467,4 MiB.

When this happens, akonadiserver starts eating a lot of ram. ATM it is at 2.2 GB ram use, In addition it consumes 45% CPU.

when watching the output of "akonadictl restart" following happens:

Code: Select all

akonadictl restart

The first time this happened, I tried to delete the ownCloud Agent with "akonadi console" unfortunately, the corresponding folders for that agent where not deleted. My only hope to return to a clean state was a:

Code: Select all

rm -rf ~/.local/share/akonadi ~/.config/akonadi ~/.kde/share/config/akonadi* ~/.kde/share/apps/akonadi*

After that I added all imap-agents and the ownCloud agent from scratch.

But now the problem appeared again, and I can't remove the davgroupware_resource
( Akonadi-Console > Browser > RightClick on Default Calender > Delete Folder : appears not to be working)

Any hints, how I could remove the broken resource and prevent it from breaking again?

moved to Kontact & PIM

What version of KDE PIM are you using? I know there are some issues with the pwnCloud 5.0 - PIM interactions, some fixes have been landed for 4.10.2 and I also think that ownCloud made some adjustments.

I'm using 4.10.1-1

Code: Select all

[edit / update] The collection did grow again and consumes 934,7 MiB now... akonadi console shows >2.6M items. How can I delete that collection manually?

What version of ownCloud are you using?

I'm asking the KDEPIM developers about the issue. I'll let you know as soon as I get a response.

OC 5



I left my Computer running over the night, and akonadi kept doing stuff like this:

Code: Select all

* 711651 FETCH (UID 711651 REV 0 REMOTEID "" MIMETYPE "application/x-vnd.akonadi.calendar.event" COLLECTIONID 131 SIZE 363 DATETIME "30-Mar-2013 13:13:14 +0000" FLAGS ())


In the same time, the file .xsession-errors did blow up to a Size of 61 GB, which filled my harddisk.

[Edit / Update:] The .xsession-errors file fills up with this stuff:

Code: Select all

cat .xsession-errors| grep akonadi_davgroupware_resource_1

akonadi_davgroupware_resource_1(1755)/akonadiserializer (calendar) Akonadi::SerializerPluginKCalCore::deserialize: Failed to parse incidence! Item id =  2643071 Storage collection id  131 parentCollectionId =  -4132

I *think* this is the issue I've read about on OC 5 <-> KDE PIM integration. It should be solved by 4.10.2, which will be out soon (around thursday).

ok, I'll wait for the new release.


[EDIT / UPDATE: Updated to .2 , let's see if error still exists, meanwhile I could delete the old faulty resource. Patience did the trick. As there is no feedback that akonadi is still busy with deleting, I assumed that it has finished the last time and did shut down my machine. That seemed to have resulted in a very untidy state of the resource]

After updating the strange behaviour didn't occur again. I'll treat this problem as solved.

Thanks for your help
