This just started happening. I have not launched Kaddressbook in several months, but it was working last time I did launch it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Launch Kaddressbook. Actual Results: Upon launch of Kaddressbook, I get a failure: "Akonadi not operational." Expected Results: I expect Kaddressbook to launch normally and open my addressbook.

I neglected to mention that I have un-installed and re-installed Kaddressbook and Akonadi-server, but the problem still persists.
Hej, as clearly stated in the mysql log: 'Access denied for user root@localhost!' You are not allowed to start MySQL server as user root (this is a limitation of MySQL, nothing we can fix...). Actually you shouldn't start a KDE environment as user root, that has many security and stability implications. Ciao, Tobias
Tobias: I am not invoking Kaddressbook from "root". I am logged in as "joe" which has administrative priviledges. I verified that my menu item "KAdderssbook" is not using su-to-root. I do not know where this "root" is coming from. Joe
Hej, googling for the error messages shows that it seems to be a problem of mysql_upgrade calling mysqlcheck... so it's really something we can't fix. Ciao, Tobias
