I'm unable to start KMail in Fedora-18, with the error message "The Akonadi personal information service is not operational" Further details are: "MySQL server log contains errors. Akonadi control process not registered at D-Bus. Akonadi server process not registered at D-Bus." I think this happened on updating kdepim last night as part of a general update after installing Fedora-18. (KMail worked find under Fedora-18 before the update.) The error seems to lie in mysql-server, so I have downgraded this, which required downgrading mysql and mysql-libs also: -------------------------------- [tim@blanche ~]$ sudo yum downgrade mysql-server mysql-libs mysql -------------------------------- But this didn't do the trick ... MySQL error log reads: -------------------------------- 130203 12:39:34 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled. 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: The InnoDB memory heap is disabled 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: Mutexes and rw_locks use GCC atomic builtins 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: Compressed tables use zlib 1.2.7 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: Using Linux native AIO 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: Initializing buffer pool, size = 8.0M 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: Completed initialization of buffer pool 130203 12:39:34 InnoDB: highest supported file format is Barracuda.
