log produced by command kpilotDaemon --debug=9 > kpilot.debug.7 2>&1
Hi Joe. Hm. Did you configure KPilot to use the new akonadi data resources for these conduits? As I said, as far as I can tell [cf. bug 192188], I've configured KPilot to use the akonadi data resources properly. The Contacts conduit visibly works, the akonadi self-test succeeds, and what akonadi logs I can find show no errors. The only visible funkiness is functional, in the UI, and recorded in the debug log from kpilotDaemon. There must be some way to extract more information from akonadi, but I haven't been able to discover how. Sigh. Does anyone know how to verify that KPilot is properly configured to use akonadi, or, even better, willing to document how to configure KPilot to use akonadi in the first place. I'd be glad to write documentation, but I literally don't know what I'd be documenting. Jason - any help would be warmly appreciated. Thanks. Hi Joe, KPilot should be configured to use akonadi if you open KPilot's configuration settings for the conduits and select your resource from the dropdowns available. If you've done that much, then it should be configured properly. I see this in the log:
> loadAllRecords
> event
> event
> addMessage
> addMessage
> addMessage
> changeIcon
> addMessage
Could not load records, is akonadi running?
> isOpen
!
! Error: Could not fetch collection with id: 2
So, this means that KPilot is not able to load the records from Akonadi for the resource that it's been configured to use.
Hi Jason - in System Settings > Advanced > Akonadi Configuration > Akonadi Resources Configuration > Add > ICal Calendar File > Select Calendar panel I selected the vCalendar file ~/Library/Calendar/JPC.ics as "the file which content should be represented by this resource". This is the file that the KDE 3.5 KPilot was using as its store. In KPilot > Settings > Configure KPilot ... > Conduits > Calendar panel (and likewise with To-do), I selected the only resource available in the popup, JPC.ics. This is strictly parallel to what I did with the the Akonadi Vcard file, JPC-contacts.vcf from KDE-3.5 KPilot, and the Contacts conduit, which works fine. Should I have done something different? Is there a good way to start fresh and just copy over the data from my Treo into Akonadi? On a different machine, I have tried selecting non-existant .ics and .vcf files, since the Akonadi Confguration UI seems to indicate in the selector that "If the file does not exist yet, it will be created", and selecting those from the KPilot Conduit config drop-downs, but when I synced, the files were *not* created and all the data on my Treo was *erased*, forcing me to restore from backups using pilot-xfer. Hi Joe, it sounds like you've done exactly the right things in setting this up. I'm at a loss for why it is not working. =:( I know that's not much help, and I apologize. I'll leave this bug open in hopes that in the near future, I might be able to steal some time away from life to look into what could be going wrong here. =:( Thanks for your help, Jason.
Digging around a little, I found where akonadi keeps its db, so I removed it and tried the following experiment to test what happens when starting with a fresh akonadi installation in ~joe and my Treo reduced down to only the most recent and future events & to-dos.
More precisely:
0. While logged in as root, delete all akoanadi traces in ~joe:
.config/akonadi .kde/share/config/akonadi* .local/share/akonadi
Log in as joe, forcing rebuild of the above files.
1. launch kpilotDaemon --debug=9 2> kpilot.debug.1
2. run akonadi self-test
3. configure resources to use :
~/Library/{Calendar/JPC-calendar.ics,/Contacts/JPC-contacts.vcf}
4. run akonadi self-test.
5. restart akonadi
6. run akonadi self-test.
7. confirm kpilot to using akonadi resources
8. use KPilot UI to copy HH to PC
9. Unplug HH and KpilotDaemon crashes
10. Open Kontact and see Calendar and ToDos blank, Contacts OK.
11. restart kpilotDaemon --debug=9 2> kpilot.debug.11
12. try to HotSync & KPilot crashes
13. restart kpilotDaemon --debug=9 2> kpilot.debug.13
14. HotSync
15. kill pilot daemon to do post-mortem
15. Launch Kontact - no Contacts or Calendar
16. Restart akonadi-server
17. Add new appointment and edit an existing contact
18. restart kpilotDaemon --debug=9 2> kpilot.debug.18
19. HotSync
20. kill pilot daemon to do post-mortem

Syncing contacts works with no issue. Hi Joe, Looking through your logs: > IDMapping > loadMapping File does not exist, empty map. Hmm... this should trigger a firstSync() > addMessage ! ! Error: Could not fetch collection with id: 2 This definitely looks like that the collection does not exist anymore. When you create remove an Akonadi agent and add a new one (even if it is for the same file), it will get a new id and you'll have to reconfigure KPilot (i.e. explicitly select the resource in the conduit config dialog.

Could you remove the mapping files (at least the one for Calendar) in: ~/.kde4/share/apps/kpilot/conduits/{USERNAME}/mapping to be sure that a first sync is triggered. Further more I saw that the 647 records don't come from your palm but from the Akonadi resource. Could you test with an Akanadi resource that doesn't have any records in it? e.g. 1) # touch path/to/empty-calendar-file.ics 2) Configure a new ical resource pointing for path/to/empty-calendar-file.ics 3) Configure KPilot ical conduit to use the resource configured in #2 4) Make sure that no mapping file exists 5) Try to sync. > > addMessage

This looks to have been my issue. My missing collection had ID 3. After several attempts to get a new collection recognized and sync'd, I finally succeeded; the unfortunate but liveable consequence was that my calendar events were duplicated. As I reflect back, I was monkeying around with a second collection of my Kontact calendar entries for whatever reason and I suppose when I was finished, I removed the wrong Akanadi collection.
Thanks; your comments were very helpful.

Well I did everything exactly as you said, but it didn't trigger a FirstSync, so I did it all again, and removed the Calendar and ToDo .pdb files from my conduits directory, which did trigger a FirstSync, but I still get: 15:57:29 [Conduit kpilot-conduit-calendar] 15:57:30 Invalid record mapping. Doing first sync. 15:57:30 Could not open or create PC data store. 15:57:30 The conduit Calendar Conduit could not be executed. 15:57:30 [Conduit kpilot-conduit-todo] 15:57:31 Invalid record mapping.

Looking at the log file from running the KpilotDaemon in debug -9, I'm still getting those messages about collection with id=2 no being found. NB at no time did a new mapping file get generated for either Calendar or ToDo. Which leaves the question: what are these akonadi collections? where are they supposed to be?

We don't support creation of akonadi datastores yet. Not doing anything.
Could not open or create pc data store.
NB I'm still eager to fix this problem, but will be on travel for the next week, so unable to respond until after June 6. Chris,
The problem is this:
Could not load records, is akonadi running?

You have configured an Akonadi Collection that doesn't exist.
1) Make sure you have an Akonadi collection for an calendar resource.
(i.e. akonaditray -> configure -> add an ical (or other calendar agent)
agent/resource.
2) configure kpilot -> kpilot -s.
a) Select the calendar conduit.
b) Explicitly select the collection you just added in the combobox.
c) Click apply.
3) Now start a sync.
The important thing is that you make sure that KPilot is configured to use the right resource. If the resource does not exists you get the message from the logs you've posted.
Well, when I finally corrected mine, I think I ended up with two calendar collections pointing to the same .ics file. Then in the pilot config, I selected the newer collection, sync'd, deleted the old collection, sync'd, and started cleaning up the duplicates. It was messy and no doubt I should have backed up the .ics records in a separate file, created a second, empty collection (or with one dummy entry), selected it in kpilot, sync'd where desktop overwrites the PDA, then copy and paste the backed up version of the original records into the new collection's .ics file, and sync'd where desktop overwrites hand held again. I'm not going to try this myself since mine is working again and I don't want to risk having to clean it all up again.
