Description Christian 2012-09-14 18:36:39 UTC
When I open the "Test..." log of the Akonadi service from the Akonadi settings window, there is a red X on a line "Error log for current Akonadi session exists".
The only contents of that file are: Nepomuk Query Server not available 

I tried to find out from the web (e.g. Troubleshooting http://userbase.kde.org/Akonadi_4.4/Troubleshooting ) what to do about it, but there is no information about this error. The same error text is contained in this Troubleshooting item http://userbase.kde.org/Akonadi_4.4/Troubleshooting#Can.27t_initialize_character_set_latin1 but I can tell it's not the same error because in my case the only line in the error log is the one about the Nepomuk Query service.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Akonadi Settings and go to the Test...
2. Click on the Red X near "Error in the current akonadi session log"

Actual Results:  
It says that "Nepomuk Query Server not available". The FAQ/Troubleshooting contains no info about how to fix this.

Expected Results:  
There should be no errors in the log. Alternatively, the troubleshooting webpage should explain how to fix this.
I don't even know what "Nepomuk query service" is or does or how this bug affects me...
Comment 1 Jan Hendrik Nielsen 2012-11-11 19:42:49 UTC
I can confirm this behavior using 
KDE SC 4.9.3
Akonadi 1.8.1
Qt: 4.8.2
KDE: 4.9.3
Kontact: 4.9.3
on gentoo linux
Comment 2 Bruno J. 2012-12-26 17:37:05 UTC
I'm seeing this on KDE 4.10 beta (4.9.95).
THough, it looks like a timing/dependency issue because sometimes after hitting "restart" akonadi or issuing a akonadictl restart the error is gone.
I don't really know what is affected by this error...

Same problem with KDE 4.10.4. So nepomuk is not working. :(
Comment 4 Markus Bienst 2013-08-15 11:22:21 UTC
I have the same problem after an upgrade from KDE 4.10.5 to 4.11.0 on kubuntu 12.04.

Issue fixed on kubuntu 12.04. Virtuoso 6.1.6 was required.

I have virtuoso 6.1.7 with KDE 4.11 and I still have this.
Comment 7 MadAGu 2013-12-22 09:23:35 UTC
it also happens here (ArchLinux with virtuoso 6.17 and KDE 4.11).

I think you mean 4.12 for Arch.
Anyways, I confirm that it is still showing this error with kde SC 4.12
Comment 9 MadAGu 2013-12-23 18:37:39 UTC
well today I updated in 4.12 ;). The bug is still there
Comment 10 Jon Randoem 2014-03-14 11:57:26 UTC
On Fedora 19, I managed to get rid of that bug with the following:

- install of the package mysql-connector-odbc
- restart akonadi

Note that I obviously use MySQL (actually MariaDB) as backend for Akonadi.
KDE 4.11.5
Virtuoso 6.1.6

Hope this will be useful.

Akonadi 1.12 / kdepimlibs 4.13 doesn't check for Nepomuk anymore.
