Interesting...just tried that with my wife's account she never used on my box: I've started _kontact_, which askes users account detail an so on. After finishing that I receive the same errors - but if I use the 2nd "fix" of the given URL then, and after restarting akonadi (akonadictl restart), everything is up and okay. In short: # mysql --socket=/tmp/akonadi-USERID.XXXXXX/mysql.socket -e 'create database mysql' # mysql_upgrade --socket=/tmp/akonadi-USERID.XXXXXX/mysql.socket # akonadictl restart And yes, this should by fixed by the kde devs, definitively.
