[opensuse] Trouble with kmail
Having installed by upgrade, opensuse 12.1 everything seems to have gone smoothly except for akonadi and kmail. The migration failed which, if I understand correctly, is a common problem but kmail continually failed to even start successfully. Having done some googling, kmail now starts with no error messages but also with no email messages, no folders and I can't send or receive messages. I have now install evolution and it works fine. Sees all my messages and folders, and I can both send and receive mail. I would be glad to hear if anyone is using the new kmail, what they did to get it going. I connect to both pop and imap servers for my mail. Many thanks Eddie -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Hi Eddie, You're just over a day late :-) From Will Stephenson on this list on the 16th:
The detailed list of things to backup are: ~/.local/share/akonadi (Akonadi's databases) ~/.config/akonadi (configuration for Akonadi itself) ~/.kde4/share/config/akonadi* (configuration for KDE-based Akonadi resources, eg imap or pop accounts)
If you imported mail from an earlier version of KMail, Akonadi will be using the maildir under here, so bring those too: ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail
If you made a clean setup, fetched (POP) mail is here: ~/.local/share/local-mail
And it is a good idea to bring the full-text index too, to save re-indexing your PIM data: ~/.kde4/share/apps/nepomuk ~/.kde4/share/config/nepomuk*
This was followed up by a note from Sven Burmeister:
Or ~/.local/share/.local-mail.directory

Only insofar as migrating the configuration of your imap accounts goes, and the migration of local filter rules (which nobody with a choice in the matter should be using). If the automatic migration fails you could use this guide to remove any broken accounts created by the migrator and add them manually.

No, this hasn't changed. "Akonadi" is a replacement for the KDE2 era middleware that KMail, Kontact et al were built on, but the underlying storage on disk is the same maildir or mbox, vcard, or ical formats, and these are as configurable (or more) than the previous implementation, and since more of the infrastructure is shared between different types of personal information, the configuration options are less idiosyncratic.

the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely

OK. I give up. 11.4 to 12.1 upgrade.
Migration failed. I've deleted all kmail stuff from .kde4
How do I start from scratch and get kmail to start? it will not start because akonadi has errors. Thanks. L x
"Could not fetch the resource collection"? Or which error?
The ubuntu guide above explains how to resolve that one by correcting the path of the local folders resource to a valid path.

Nope. Still doesn't work. Removing what you say gives these errors:

Akonadi needs MySQL? I happen to use MySQL but most desktop users don't do they?
It's a private 'embedded' instance, not the system wide server you're running, so users don't need to do anything to set it up. Look at the Test 6 output you pasted. As a mysql user you'll recognise that the config Akonadi's mysql uses is optimised for this private local usage.
Really confused with this. 12.2 should never have shipped with kmail2 if it wasn't ready.
AFAICS it's a mysql upgrade problem, not a KMail problem. As a mysql user, are you using some nonstandard mysql packages? Zypper locks to some specific version you need?
Whats the problem? I have KMail with Google IMAP and AKonadi running flawlessly. I missed the other messages since I been swamped lately.
OK. Followed the removal instructions above and get these errors:

The following looks like MySQL is unable to run at all. Check that all your mysql packages are upgraded from 11.4 and are mysql-community-server, not mariadb. Check that the usual system mysqld can run without error.
Am sending this from kmail. I deleted the MySQL community server and installed the cluster server instead just to try something different. I went back to the akonadi-kmail'clean slate'. Some mysql package names have changed with 12.1 it seems. That made kmail work but it has slowed down the box. virtuoso-t, akonadi and nepomuk are eating nearly 100% of the CPU. Ahhgghh!! Any ideas?

Ok, half good. What were the changed mysql package names you had to remove and replace? Upgrade should have caught those. For now, you have to go to each folder (or each *large*) folder, right click, Folder Properties, Maintenance tab and uncheck 'Index for full text search'. Don't ask me who thought that was a good idea to set that for all folders by default. Someone with infinite CPU and IO at their disposal. I'm writing a tool to allow us to set that flag for multiple folders at one go, and default to only indexing the inbox and sentmail folders, but I'm not done yet.

I think the problem with nepomuk and using it for search purposes in general is as follows. It only finds what it has indexed. So if one has nepomuk + strigi enabled and starts a file/content search in dolphin it does not find files in folders which are not indexed. Same for kmail I guess. Nepomuk does not add content to the classic search, it subtracts everything not indexed. So even if you only want to search for a file name in a local git clone of KDE's sources it will not be found unless you index those sources – which IMHO does not make sense resources-wise. It's plain confusing that one gets less results when nepomuk is enabled unless one gives it unlimited resources to index everything. Especially since nepomuk's features and performance as a dekstop search are far away from state of the art.
I'm writing a tool to allow us to set that flag for multiple folders at one go, and default to only indexing the inbox and sentmail folders, but I'm not done yet.
What about adding a tab to kmail's settings with checkboxes for the folder- tree? BTW: If indexing for a local mail folder is enabled via systemsettings and akonadi feeds its folders into nepomuk as well, does that data end-up duplicated in nepomuk or is nepomuk smart enough to recognise that the files are the same?

This is a common complaint about nepomuk. If you let it run once to completion it will not take that much resource in the future.

Yeah. I've given up on kmail. It's just too time consuming to configure. Thunderbird seems to be a good alternative until kmail gets fixed. Thanks to everyone who has helped. L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

OK. I give up. 11.4 to 12.1 upgrade.
Migration failed. I've deleted all kmail stuff from .kde4
How do I start from scratch and get kmail to start? it will not start because akonadi has errors. Thanks. L x
"Could not fetch the resource collection"? Or which error?
The ubuntu guide above explains how to resolve that one by correcting the path of the local folders resource to a valid path.
To get a blank slate, remove all of ~/.local/share/akonadi (Akonadi's databases) ~/.config/akonadi (configuration for Akonadi itself) ~/.kde4/share/config/akonadi* (configuration for KDE-based Akonadi resources, eg imap or pop accounts)
and move aside ~/.kde4/share/config/kmail*
HTH, I'm on child rearing duties until Saturday morning so I will check back in then.

Nope. Still doesn't work. Removing what you say gives these errors:
MySQL server not found Executing the MySQL server failed ;ySQL server configuration not found or not readable Akonadi control process not registered at dbus + some others.
Akonadi needs MySQL? I happen to use MySQL but most desktop users don't do they?
It's a private 'embedded' instance, not the system wide server you're running, so users don't need to do anything to set it up. Look at the Test 6 output you pasted. As a mysql user you'll recognise that the config Akonadi's mysql uses is optimised for this private local usage.
Really confused with this. 12.2 should never have shipped with kmail2 if it wasn't ready.
AFAICS it's a mysql upgrade problem, not a KMail problem. As a mysql user, are you using some nonstandard mysql packages? Zypper locks to some specific version you need?
Whats the problem? I have KMail with Google IMAP and AKonadi running flawlessly. I missed the other messages since I been swamped lately.
OK. Followed the removal instructions above and get these errors:

Having installed by upgrade, opensuse 12.1 everything seems to have gone smoothly except for akonadi and kmail. The migration failed which, if I understand correctly, is a common problem but kmail continually failed to even start successfully. Having done some googling, kmail now starts with no error messages but also with no email messages, no folders and I can't send or receive messages.
Did you check that you have resources added to akonadi? You can either do that via kmail or systemsettings > personal information. Sending accounts only from within kmail I think. You should see the accounts in the folder list on kmail's left. For IMAP you can right-click the account in that folder list and check the subscribed folders, i.e. whether the inbox etc. is selected.
