Created attachment 147417 [details] Error message I found this error when trying to install kmail which fails due to akonadi failing on startup. I get this: Akonadi Server Self-Test Report=============================== Test 1: SUCCESS -------- Database driver found. Details: The QtSQL driver 'QMYSQL' is required by your current Akonadi server configuration and was found on your system. File content of '/home/jarl/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc': [%General] Driver=QMYSQL [QMYSQL] Host= Name=akonadi Options="UNIX_SOCKET=/run/user/1000/akonadi/mysql.socket" ServerPath=/usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi StartServer=true Test 2: SUCCESS -------- Akonadi is not running as root Details: Akonadi is not running as a root/administrator user, which is the recommended setup for a secure system. Test 3: SUCCESS -------- MySQL server found. Details: You have currently configured Akonadi to use the MySQL server '/usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi'. 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: /usr/sbin/mysqld-akonadi Ver 10.3.34-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 for debian-linux-gnu on x86_64 (Ubuntu 20.04) Test 5: SUCCESS -------- No current MySQL error log found. Details: The MySQL server did not report any errors during this startup. The log can be found in '/home/jarl/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/mysql.err'. Test 6: SUCCESS -------- MySQL server default configuration found. Details: The default configuration for the MySQL server was found and is readable at <a href="/etc/xdg//akonadi/mysql-global.conf">/etc/xdg//akonadi/mysql-global.conf</a>.

Result: akonadictl 5.19.3 (21.12.3) Test 10: ERROR -------- Akonadi control process not registered at D-Bus. Details: The Akonadi control process is not registered at D-Bus which typically means it was not started or encountered a fatal error during startup. Test 11: ERROR -------- Akonadi server process not registered at D-Bus. Details: The Akonadi server process is not registered at D-Bus which typically means it was not started or encountered a fatal error during startup. Test 12: SKIP -------- Protocol version check not possible. Details: Without a connection to the server it is not possible to check if the protocol version meets the requirements. Test 13: ERROR -------- No resource agents found. Details: No resource agents have been found, Akonadi is not usable without at least one. This usually means that no resource agents are installed or that there is a setup problem. The following paths have been searched: '/usr/share/akonadi/agents'.
