https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=662851 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=662851#c0 Summary: kmail migration fails on IMAP account Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Applications AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: suse-beta@cboltz.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Blocker: --- Update from 11.3 (KDE 4.4) to 11.4 Factory (between M5 and M6) KMail startup brings up a migration dialog that migrates the mail accounts to Akonadi. This worked for my POP3 accounts, but it failed for an IMAP account. Relevant section of the messages that were shown (@ replaced with [at]): i Trying to migrate 'info [at] cboltz.de IMAP' to resource... i Creating instance of type akonadi_imap_resource i Created imap resource x Migration of 'info [at] cboltz.de IMAP' to Akonadi resource failed: Resource 'IMAP Account 1' is not working correctly I closed the dialog, and it came up at the next KMail start again. The error message was the same except that it said 'IMAP Account 2', at the next startup 'IMAP Account 3', ... - always without actually starting KMail. I finally decided to kill -HUP kmail-migration. KMail started afterwards, but the IMAP account is lost in the settings. I'm setting this bug to critical because I never got past the migration tool (aka "KMail does not start") while doing things an average user does. (I don't expect that an average user knows how to kill kmail-migration.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
