Hi,
I upgraded my ubuntu bionic 18.04 LTS to focal 20.04 LTS with flaws, but successfully. One issue was the upgrade from mysql 5.7 to mysql 8.0, but it seems to work right now. But I cannot run aconadi and depending programs like kontact or kmail. Isn't it possible to run it with mysql 8.0? How to debug it, in case it should be possible to run with mysql?
I also reported some code in ubuntuusers. But I'm not sure, if this will run with mysql 8.0 at all. https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/akon ... st-9250988 Now: https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/nach ... st-9251171 `[ERROR] [MY-011011] [Server] Failed to find valid data directory.`

Here you can see the error.log in that datadir before and after the upgrade. I think, the datastructure is no longer importable for mysql 8.0. Unfortunately I don't have a mysqldump from that akonadi data.
Maybe I have to migrate to mariadb, and hopefully the current mariadb for ubuntu 20.04 will read that data directory? Otherwise I have to setup a docker with mysql 5.7 and make a dump from there? What to do?

Regarding the package management system it seems to be possible, but can one also bring it up running?

Okay.
I guess it's really not possible to set up akonadi with mysql-8.0! Nonetheless it's possible to install mysql-8.0 on kubuntu beside of akonadi regarding the dependencies, and it's not conflicting by the package system. Indeed mariadb-10.3 is claimed as a dependency, but desite this fact it's possible to have a system with akonadi and mysql-8.0 without bothering the package system. See the solutions in this thread: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1182115 ... 36#1189636 And the threads I opened for this issue: https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/nach ... st-9251493 https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/lts- ... st-9251643 SOLUTION:

I'm having a very similar issue but I've read some threads that say that Akonadi is possible with MySQL 8.
In my case since my work demands original MySQL, I had to first remove MariaDB. I had no issues with the latter whatsoever (in fact its a more optimized MySQL). The only thing that was bothering was incompatibility with MySQL workbench. Fast forward to MySQL installation. I removed MariaDB and installed MySQL at its place. And as usual, looks like the coneection with Akonadi has been severed and I use KOrganizer. For example, running akonadiconsole gives this list of errors:
To my knowledge MySQL config exists, is working and I've reinstalled the MySQL dependency for Akonadi. Still no progress. Askubuntu was not able to help. |
