Akonadi Issue Resolved

Postby mark9117 » Sep 24th, '17, 10:09

I had some pesky trouble with the akonadi server. I originally posted a message about it here. I marked it "solved" when I reinstalled Mageia 6 and thought it was resolved. I did notice at the time that akonadi was running. And then I updated the system. I shortly discovered that akonadi was no longer running.

Since it was a specific akonadi issue, I opened the issue in the KDE support forums. It took a while, but tonight I finally tracked it down with help from wolfi323. For some reason, the system didn't update some of the packages associated with akonadi. Specifically, I found this list of packages stuck at ver. 16.08.3 while everything else was either from ver 4 (not relevant) or was on ver. 16.12.3.

    akonadi
    akonadi-kde
    akonadi-mime
    akonadi-search
    akonadiconsole
    lib64kf5akonadisearchcore5
    lib64kf5akonadisearchxapian5

I used drakrpm to uninstall all of those packages and then installed the 16.12.3 versions. After a reboot everything worked as expected.

Not sure what caused that mismatch, but it's fixed now and I've got very few things not working to my satisfaction. But that's for another message.

Just wanted to make that available for the record.
Let's just reboot everything all the time.
