The Courier IMAP bug has been fixed: http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdepim-runti ... 68a2729eec

Please ask your distribution to backport this patch to their respective packages.

Please excuse if I am postig this in the wrong area, but I am seeing this issue with Dovecot and Gmail imap connections on kde 4.14.1 on debian 8.

On the system with the dovecot connection, I am seeing this in akonadiserver.error:

Code: Select all

"Cannot connect to agent instance with identifier 'akonadi_imap_resource_0', error message: 'Could not get owner of name 'org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Resource.akonadi_imap_resource_0': no such name'"
ItemRetrieverException :  Unable to contact resource
"Cannot connect to agent instance with identifier 'akonadi_imap_resource_0', error message: 'Could not get owner of name 'org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Resource.akonadi_imap_resource_0': no such name'"
ItemRetrieverException :  Unable to contact resource
"Cannot connect to agent instance with identifier 'akonadi_imap_resource_0', error message: 'Could not get owner of name 'org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Resource.akonadi_imap_resource_0': no such name'"
ItemRetrieverException :  Unable to contact resource

and this in akonadi_control.error:

Code: Select all

Executable "akonadi_nepomuk_feeder" for agent "akonadi_nepomuk_feeder" could not be found!
Executable "akonadi_folderarchive_agent" for agent "akonadi_folderarchive_agent" could not be found!
ProcessControl: Application /usr/bin/akonadi_imap_resource stopped unexpectedly ( "Process crashed" )

I have a webmail client and two android clients able to access the server concurrent to this error. restarting akonadi resolves the error immediately. I will check the gmail system when I get to work to confirm whether I see the same in the logs there.

The second error is a red herring, you can safely ignore it. Can you try to restart akonadi in a terminal, and see what other output is printed when you get this hang?

Howdy folks.

Having this problem with Kmail AND Thunderbird.

I'm currently running a fresh installation of Fedora 22 with KDE. I installed Thunderbird and configured IMAP to my VPS mailserver (cPanel) but it just hangs on "Connected to server" it does not download folders or mail. The problem began about a week ago (in Fedora 20 KDE) so I upgraded hoping it would fix, but it hasn't.

I tested last night in Kmail and that client is also just hanging (forever) and says "error with account"

What's happening here? How can I troubleshoot?

Thanks!

This looks like a server error. Do you have web mail access? If so, does it work?
