After many reboots. > > Kevin Kofler Update: Tonight I edited the akonadiserverrc to indicate that it should start the server (mysqld I assume), and stopped mysqld, then stopped kmail for 10 secs and restarted it. NOW it says the migration succeeded, and I have serveral copies of both akonadiserver and akonadiserver_control running, along with the usual 8 or 9 copies of mysqld, still running as the user mysql. I would consider this a bug if it can't find and use an already running mysqld. Is that a good assessment?
