Akonadi

Hi All!

Right now I have KDE 4.3.5, soon I hope to see KDE 4.4 The only problem is that akonadi doesn’t work :frowning:

Here is result of akonadictl start from konsole:

I have tried to change config and no effect :frowning:
Is Akonadi fixed in KDE 4.4 or what should I do to fix it in my current OpenSUSE 11.2

With Best Regards, Tribunal

Struggling too, but try this commmand from console:

kcmshell4 kcm_akonadi

I have tried, but standart Akonadi settings from “System settings” are too poor to understand, what’s wrong. They are sending you to
http://userbase.kde.org/Akonadi but it seems, that this site was written by developers for developers.
As I have seen, I am not the only user with problem of starting Akonadi in KDE 4.* in OpenSuse 11.2.
And one more moment:
Are there any users of OpenSuse 11.2 with working Akonadi? :slight_smile:

Maybe you need to be sure you have Nepomuk running. Also it depends on a SQL backend I think SQLITE.

have you read the first para of that cite?

yes, it is written by developers, but it is not written for
developers…it uses very plain English…which maybe you don’t
understand readily…let me try to help:

when it says “This page is mainly concerned with troubleshooting
Akonadi, as there are inevitable glitches in early stages of migration.”

it means that the making of Akonadi is just getting started and you
should expect lots of problems…

when it says: “For many people the first signs of Akonadi activity
will be in KDE SC 4.4 . . .”

it means that users shouldn’t expect any functionality prior to
having KDE4.4 installed…now, since you have something even earlier
than that you should expect nothing to work…

as you have proven that is true by trying…

and, even after installing 4.4 you should expect to be confused by
Akonadi’s interface, lack of features, stuff that doesn’t work like
you might expect, etc etc etc

then, when it goes on to say “. . . and many will be confused by it.”

it means that even after you have installed KDE4.4 you should still
expect lots of problems! so many that the lack of working buttons,
features that don’t do what you expect, and etc will probably
confuse you…

so, my guess is you need to chill…

I have tried to use instructions from this site. For example, I have this error:
Akonadi server process not registered at D-Bus
So, I have read solution and tried… but there are no

The fix is to edit the following file "/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld-akonadi". 

in my OpenSuse 11.2
That’s why I’m asking are there other solution?

P.S. Nemomuk is running

P.P.S.
Here is the full output of Akonadi selftest:
