Description Will Stephenson 2011-11-18 18:59:21 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

Got this from a community member updating to openSUSE 12.1, with testing kde-runtime packages including your recent 4.7.3+ fixes.
"
trailing is the nepomuk server output, the important bit seems to be

[/usr/bin/nepomukservicestub] "10:33:20 The transaction log file has been
produced by server version '06.01.3126'. The version of this server is
'06.01.3127'. If the transaction log is empty or you do not want to replay it
then delete it and start the server again. Otherwise replay the log using the
server of version '06.01.3126' and make checkpoint and shutdown to ensure that
the log is empty, then delete it and start using new version.
"

does this mean it crashed once on 11.4 and now I can't use it on 12.1 unless I
remove that transaction log? would there be a way to export this message to the
user more easily?

Indeed the server will not start if there is a log from another version. So in order to get this situation you need to kill KILL virtuoso, then update it, and then try to start Nepomuk again.
I already talked to OpenLink about some option to throw away old logs if not compatible but they did not like the idea. Thus, we need to create our own solution. I am not entirely sure yet how to do that though.
Comment 2 Vishesh Handa 2013-08-11 07:45:55 UTC
I'm marking this bug as FIXED. It is almost 2 years old and hopefully future versions of virtuoso have fixed this issue. Please feel free to reopen if you encounter this again.
Comment 3 David Edmundson 2013-09-26 00:56:36 UTC
This does not appear to be fixed in virtuoso.

Sequence of events today:
 - upgrade some stuff including virtuoso

 - reboot (probably uncleanly)

 - use Nepomuk - can't connect to server.

 - nepomukstorage says "Failed to start Virtuoso"

 - delete the soprano-virtuoso.trx  file

 - everything works!
Comment 4 Vishesh Handa 2013-09-26 10:39:41 UTC
Marking as FIXED. It's fixed in soprano master and 2.9 branch. I'll release 2.9.5 so that everyone else can update.
