KMail2 won't start after migration

Tue Nov 30, 2010 1:56 pm
Hello,

I just updated my OpenSuSE 11.4 M4 box to the latest packages, so I got KMail2. All my mail was stored in Kontact, so the first think I done after reboot was to launch it. The migration tool popped-up, all the mail seems to be correctly migrated (I had akonadi imap crash though, wich I reported on bugs.kde.org). Now KMail won't start. Each time I tryto launch KMail, the migration tool comes, stating that all accounts were already migrated and showing a "close" button. When I click it, the wizard disappears and KMail never kick in.
Here is a screenshot of the migreation tool :

I had the idea to launch KMail into the konsole and here is the output :
> kmail
kmail2(4075): Akonadi migration failed!
kmail2(4075): command was: ("/usr/bin/kmail-migrator", "--interactive-on-change")
kmail2(4075): exit code: 3
kmail2(4075): stdout: ""
kmail2(4075): stderr: ""
kde(4074): Communication problem with "kmail2" , it probably crashed.
Error message was: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown" : " "The name org.kde.kmail2 was not provided by any .service files" "

Any clues?

Could be that the migrator is incorrectly reporting its state back to KMail.

You can do this to disable migration (can be re-enabled later in case this would ever be necessary).

kwriteconfig --file kmail-migratorrc --group Migration --key Enabled --type bool false

or edit kmail-migratorrc manually, setting Enabled=false in group [Migration]

Cheers,
