Bug 313614

if akonadi is not running, no alarms can be setin kalarm, and AFAIK, there is no other plasma avail that allows to program a simple alarm later today, when i have to leave work, to be in time to pick up my son from school :-)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.stop akonadi
2.click on kalarm in ("boite a miniatures") the little icons, i forgot the original name, where klipper, networkmanager and friends sits
3. kalarm pops up ith a message saying "go away" akonadi is not running.
Actual Results:  
Akonadi Server Self-Test Report
===============================

Test 1:  SUCCESS
--------

Database driver found.
Details: The QtSQL driver 'QMYSQL' is required by your current Akonadi server configuration and was found on your system.

File content of '/root/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc':
[%General]
Driver=QMYSQL

[QMYSQL]
Name=akonadi
Host=
Options="UNIX_SOCKET=/root/.local/share/akonadi/socket-linux-p8rs.site/mysql.socket"
ServerPath=/usr/sbin/mysqld
StartServer=true


Test 2:  ERROR
--------

Akonadi was started as root
Details: Running Internet-facing applications as root/administrator exposes you to many security risks. MySQL, used by this Akonadi installation, will not allow itself to run as root, to protect you from these risks.

Test 3:  SUCCESS
--------

MySQL server found.
Details: You have currently configured Akonadi to use the MySQL server '/usr/sbin/mysqld'.
Make sure you have the MySQL server installed, set the correct path and ensure you have the necessary read and execution rights on the server executable. The server executable is typically called 'mysqld'; its location varies depending on the distribution.

Test 4:  SUCCESS
--------

MySQL server is executable.
Details: MySQL server found: /usr/sbin/mysqld  Ver 5.5.28-log for Linux on x86_64 (Source distribution)


Test 5:  SUCCESS
--------

No current MySQL error log found.
Details: The MySQL server did not report any errors during this startup. The log can be found in '/root/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/mysql.err'.

Test 6:  SUCCESS
--------

MySQL server default configuration found.
Details: The default configuration for the MySQL server was found and is readable at <a href='/etc/akonadi/mysql-global.conf'>/etc/akonadi/mysql-global.conf</a>.
