SUMMARY Crash Akonadi (the way I did it: delete /home/user/.local/share/akonadi/ CAUTION: I still haven't found a way to fix Akonadi.) KMail will outright crash the first time, the next time it'll show a 'The Akonadi personal information management service is not operational', with a 'Details' button below it. Clicking on the 'Details' button does absolutely nothing. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Somehow do stuff to Akonadi that prevents it from working 2. Run KMail 3. Click on the 'Details' button under the 'The Akonadi personal information management service is not operational' error message OBSERVED RESULT Nothing happens EXPECTED RESULT The error details should be shown SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 5.23 KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.11.0-40-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50GHz Memory: 7.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 620 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION none
I have the same issue, in the terminal you get a meaningful error message: >org.kde.pim.akonadiserver: Starting up the Akonadi Server... >org.kde.pim.akonadiserver: mysqld not found. Please verify your installation >org.kde.pim.akonadiserver: Shutting down AkonadiServer... >org.kde.pim.akonadicontrol: Application '/usr/bin/akonadiserver' exited normally... Though this is a really bad user experience :/
