Description michael.zugaro 2012-08-10 08:49:30 UTC 
When started over ssh, Kontact cannot access Akonadi resources. For instance, KMail cannot access the Maildir resource. I have to manually stop/start Akonadi using akonadictl in a remote shell to get it to work. Restarting using a remote akonaditray fails.

This functionality is fundamental in networked environments where computers are routinely accessed remotely.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ssh <host> kontact
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Kontact cannot access Akonadi resources

Expected Results:  
Acess Akonadi

This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.

Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
