Description heikki 2011-06-20 11:30:16 UTC

Version:           4.4 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

I often get error popups that say "Akonadi resource" and "Authentication failed". There is no information about what resource it is talking about, or where it tried to authenticate. I suspect it has something to do with my KOrganizer using remote calendars, but that is only a guess.

Would it be possible to make the error message a bit more informative?

Reproducible: Sometimes

It's right it will better :) but how I can know what is the resource which failed ?:)

I assume this was IMAP, fixed a while ago already.

Comment 3 heikki 2012-03-12 11:06:34 UTC

Actually, I am not using imap at all. My calendars are remote calendars over sftp.
