I upgraded KDE to 4.13. (while upgrading Ubuntu from 13.10 to 14.04) Now, Akonadi doesn't start. Several concurrent Mysql deamons are being started: gerhard 3629 1.0 0.3 450520 29424 ?

Test 3: SUCCESS -------- MySQL server found. Details: You have currently configured Akonadi to use the MySQL server '/usr/sbin/mysqld'. Make sure you have the MySQL server installed, set the correct path and ensure you have the necessary read and execution rights on the server executable. The server executable is typically called 'mysqld'; its location varies depending on the distribution. Test 4: SUCCESS -------- MySQL server is executable. Details: MySQL server found: 140422 20:50:08 [Warning] Using unique option prefix key_buffer instead of key_buffer_size is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please use the full name instead. /usr/sbin/mysqld Ver 5.5.35-1ubuntu1 for debian-linux-gnu on x86_64 ((Ubuntu)) Test 5: ERROR -------- MySQL server log contains errors.

I already tried killing all mysqld processes and restarting akonadi. Also tried to remove the mysqld.conf.
Looks like a MySQL issue. Please check that you haven't run out of disk space, make sure that file ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ibdata1 (and all other files in that directory) are owned by your user and group and have at least -rw-rw--- rights and that the directory itself is writeable. Finally, try the following: cp ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ibdata1{,.backup} mv ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ibdata1{,.mv} cp -a ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/ibdata1{.mv,} (Found on the internet, reported by users to solve the "can't get ibdata1 lock" problem.
Thanks for your reply! There is plenty of disk space left (13GB) The file premissions are: -rw-rw--- The mv/cp didn't help. I also ruled out AppArmor: 3 processes are in complain mode. /usr/sbin/mysqld (1596) /usr/sbin/mysqld (5612) /usr/sbin/mysqld (5638)
Ubuntu just got an update from mysql 5.5.35 to 5.5.37. Didn't change anything.
Others got the same problem: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=215&t=120510 http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gentoo/user/286323?page=last https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29926 I don't think that this is a mysql problem.

Hmm, there's the problem. You are running on MyISAM, which is not a supported configuration (I'm not sure if it was in the past, but I doubt it). I'm not sure how that could happened. Anyway, Akonadi requires InnoDB, because it depends on FOREIGN KEYS to function properly. I recommend converting all tables to InnoDB manually, then restarting Akonadi. It should automatically create all missing indexes and foreign keys.
Thank you very much! That worked! I'm using akonadi since the very beginning. Maybe the default was changed at some point...
