Hello Will, at first, excuse my last answer, but I'm not online before.

But normally I use the Factory Repository and I've not seen that so a big change is upcoming - some hoers after the update and conversation - I see the message on the Newsticker :-( But it's not really so critical, so it's only my private Emails.
If this is a problem use KDE 4.5 from KDE:Release:45 instead. No, not realy. But I will support you, that the system is more stable, in the next release. I've always some trouble with the home on the NFS share and some databases (AmaroK, ...).
But it doesn’t work now. So I rename the ${HOME}/.local/share/akonadi and restart the System. Know Akonadi works fine, but kmail/kontact crashes with a generally error message (aditional some knotify - crash messages pops on the screen).
What is the crash backtrace? I can't generate a crash message. So I start it on a command line, but additional, there is no detailed information available. In a other case I've put it in this Email.
I can't add the Nepomuk Email search, it's light gray and can't be selected).
Is Nepomuk enabled? (Desktop Search settings) I activate Nepomuk in the settings and Nepomuk run message are bold marked line behind. But no entry in the task list is present. Additional I find no entry in the Akonadi Settings overview. (Please excuse my not so detailed information - but my Messages and windwos are in German - and it's not so easy for me to translate the dialogs and messages in English)
Is the user's $HOME on an NFS share?
I do my normal work, to bring up Akonadi (root on my PC have nobody rights in my Home - so I mount it via NFS from my Server): So I've written it my Email. So I solve it with the script before. After it run's (also on KDE 4.4 before) I've no problems.
This can give problems as mysql does not support having its database on a share. The solution would be to symlink $HOME/.local/share/akonadi somewhere local. So, if I would use the Database on different Desktops, is it not a problem? Can I move the Database on my server (which delivers the NFS share)?
Otherwise, I'm confused as to whether you are running KDE as root, or just the mysql server used by Akonadi. # ps aux | grep mysql ulf 5799 0.0 0.7 231908 28316 ? Sl 19:36 0:02 /usr/sbin/mysqld --defaults-file=/home/ulf/.local/share/akonadi//mysql.conf --datadir=/home/ulf/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ --socket=/home/ulf/.local/share/akonadi/db_misc/mysql.socket
Normally KMail/Kontact starts Akonadi which runs its own instance of mysql (as the same use). Therefore rcmysql restart has no effect. OK, so you mean, that I must kill this instance?
It is possible to use a separate (system) mysql instance but I won't support this configuration. OK, but what’s the best solution to use akonadi on a shared home?
