Description BryanFRitt 2014-11-29 20:06:43 UTC

Right click on icon -> New Note ...
Get "An error occures during fetching. Do you want to select an new default collection?"
(including the grammar error(s))
Click Yes -> new dialog pops up with Nothing to choose from
Click No -> the dialogs just goes away

When KNotes gets started it adds in a 'Local Notes * Ready' item in
System Settings -> Common Appearance and Behavior -> Akonadi Resources Configuration -> ...
which has maildir tab -> /home/bryan/.local/share/notes/akonadi_akonotes_resource_731
(Question What are these things added called? The dialogs don't say)

When run from a konsole window knotes says something like:

QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
knotes(31041) NoteShared::LocalResourceCreator::slotSyncDone: Instance synchronized 
knotes(31041)/libakonadi Akonadi::EntityCache<T, FetchJob, FetchScope_>::processResult: "Collection 431 does not exist" 
knotes(31041)/libakonadi Akonadi::EntityCache<T, FetchJob, FetchScope_>::processResult: "Collection 432 does not exist" 
knotes(31041)/libakonadi Akonadi::EntityCache<T, FetchJob, FetchScope_>::processResult: "Collection 433 does not exist" 
 Error during fetch:  "Collection 322 does not exist" 
 Error during fetch:  "Collection 322 does not exist"

note: these numbers may change between runs

--

p.s. When starting knotes after upgrade the old knotes conversion didn't work, and it created lots stuff in /home/bryan/.local/share/notes/akonadi_akonotes_resource_*
(or at least I think that's when those were created)

Your problems are already reported:
See bug#339168 and bug#339169

To get knotes working, right-click on its icon, choose "Configure KNotes..." and set an existing Akonotes resource as default collection in "Collections".

And you should probably set a different folder than ~/.local/share/local-mail/ for your Akonotes resources in System Settings -> Common Appearance and Behavior ->Akonadi Resources Configuration (a good candidate would probably be ~/.local/share/notes/ or subfolders thereof).
