I opened kmail as usual and when I clicked on the email folders kontact crashed sayin it could not read them. When I restart Kontact all my email accounts and maildir folders were gone. Since then, the Akonadi server and Kontact are not able to start.

It is also possible that this binary or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built, or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware. We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail. key_buffer_size=8388608 read_buffer_size=131072 max_used_connections=0 max_threads=256 thread_count=0 connection_count=0 It is possible that mysqld could use up to key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 567120 K bytes of memory Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.
