After installing KDE-Desktop for my Debian Wheezy Installation and trying to configure KMail I receive an error from Akonadi.
It seems that the problem occurs to other people too, but its complicated and I can't seem to find a solution for me. Maybe someone can help or point me in the right direction. Thanks a lot Herre is my akonadi selftest report.
Edit: It seems that the SQL-Agent can't be started "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/home/ralf/.local/share/akonadi/socket-deb7t530/mysql.socket' (2)". Beside KDE I have a parallel Gnome Installation. And I think KDM has been replaced by GDM. Maybe the problem lies here? |

Do you have mysql or mariadb installed?
In Debian it means using the "mysql-server" package. Don't forget to turn off the system startup of mysql after installing it (as Akonadi will bring it up itself, when needed).

Hello Einar,
thanks for the quick reply. I have installed mysql-server-core-5.5 MySQL ist not listed in Startup-Services. But what I found is: ~/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc shows
while
Maybe changing the socket name is sufficient? Maybe a symbolic link is recommended? Or is mysql.socket missing in this subdirectory? |

Try changing the socket name in akonadiserverrc.

It seems to solve part of the problem, but not all.
I still have the D-Bus Problem in Test 7 & 8
I tried to add /usr/share/akonadi/agents to XDG_DATA_DIRS but with no success. Some Problem with D-BUS maybe? I also tried
and then

Try writing "akonadictl start" in a konsole (within your X session, not in a virtual terminal) and see if there's any interesting output. If it says that Akonadi is still running, use "akonadictl restart".

That shouldn't be necessary, I don't have that directory in there and Akonadi works fine here. Maybe running "kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental" helps? |

I received some errors/warnings due to my parallel GNOME installation.
And the Akonadi problem persists.

OK, two more ideas:
- Do you have apparmor running? Try to disable it. - You could also try to rename ~/.config/akonadi and ~/.local/share/akonadi to start with a completely fresh config and database (the configured resources should still be there). Maybe that would enable akonadi to start? |

This!
Akonadi is up and running. Renaming the config-files did it. Thanks a lot guys for your patience. |
