Talk:Akonadi
Actually I believe that the commands for resolving the apparmor problem are wrong. I believe they should be the following:
- /etc/sudo aa-complain mysqld-akonadi
- sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor reload
MySQL/InnoDB problem
I've seen a couple of reports of this problem. I'm using kubuntu intrepid. It may stem from the fact that I already had mysqld installed. Additionally, my home directory is automounted remotely, and root can't write to it. Here's the output from akonadi startup:
Akonadi Server Self-Test Report =============================== Test 1: SUCCESS -------- Database driver found. Details: The QtSQL driver 'QMYSQL' is required by your current Akonadi server configuration. The following drivers are installed: QMYSQL3, QMYSQL. Make sure the required driver is installed.

Details: You currently have configured Akonadi to use the MySQL server '/usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi'. Make sure you have the MySQL server installed, set the correct path and ensure you have the necessary read and execution rights on the server executable. The server executable is typically called 'mysqld', its locations varies depending on the distribution. Test 3: SUCCESS -------- MySQL server is executable.

Details: The Akonadi server process is not registered at D-Bus which typically means it was not started or encountered a fatal error during startup.

Test 12: ERROR -------- No resource agents found. Details: No resource agents have been found, Akonadi is not usable without at least one.

---I had this problem too, for me it was solved by making sure that the contents of [homedir].local/share/akonadi was actually owned by my user (instead of root, as it was before). Jan
---Thanks Jan, I've checked and they are. I think the problem is that my home dir is automounted across the network, and the local root is not allowed to write to it (or read from it). Not sure how to fix this, though. --John
