Bug 397397 – KMail exits at start since it cannot fetch root collection of akonadi (imap) maildir resource

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Johannes Buchner 2012-01-02 14:12:18 UTC]

I am running akonadi 1.6.2, kmail 4.7.3 and have a very similar issue as in Bug
#250039: Creating an IMAP resource fails and KMail crashes/exits on startup.
I tried to clean up akonadi but it still has this 'Failed to request resource
"akonadi_maildir_resource_0"' issue.
What can I do?

Reproducible: Always

akonadi log of the problem

[Comment 2 Johannes Buchner 2012-01-02 14:14:30 UTC]

The main error message is:
Akonadi::SpecialCollectionsRequestJobPrivate::resourceScanResult: Failed to
request resource "akonadi_maildir_resource_0" : "Unknown error. (Failed to
fetch the resource collection.)"

[Comment 3 Johannes Huber (RETIRED) 2012-01-02 14:58:14 UTC]

Report upstream and link here back.

[Comment 4 Johannes Huber (RETIRED) 2012-01-02 15:04:07 UTC]

Oh i see that you have already a upstream bug report, which says INVALID...

Please have a look at the KDEPIM Upgrade Guide: http://wiki.gentoo.org/index.php?title=KDEPIM-4.7_upgrade .

What info can I contribute to debug this better?
I don't have any files that I want to keep, I just want to initialize akonadi+kmail+1 imap account from scratch. As you see from the log I try to delete directories that may be tainted.

[Comment 6 Johannes Huber (RETIRED) 2012-01-02 15:32:05 UTC]

In the upgrade guide you can find all relevant folders.

[Comment 7 Johannes Buchner 2012-01-02 15:39:38 UTC]

Thanks Johannes. I deleted all the files/folders mentioned in the KDEPIM Upgrade Guide, but am still having the exact same issue.

$ rm ~/.kde4/share/config/{mailtransports,kmailrc,kaddressbookrc,korganizerrc,emailidentities,emaildefaults} 
$ rm -rf ~/.kde4/share/apps/korganizer
$ rm -rf ~/.kde4/share/apps/kabc
$ rm -rf /home/user/.kde4/share/apps/kmail2
$ rm -rf /home/user/.kde4/share/config/kmail*
$ rm -rf /home/user/.local/share/akonadi/
