MySQL is started when I boot up. Since this machine is also used as a web server, it is virtually never down. MySQL is up and running correctly at present. I chose not to use the running version of MySQL since the Akonadi server was having all sorts of problems accessing it. A snippet follows. ******************************************************************* Test 3: SUCCESS -------- MySQL server is executable. Details: MySQL server found: cat: /var/db/mysql/scorpio.seibercom.net.pid: Permission denied rm: /var/db/mysql/scorpio.seibercom.net.pid: Permission denied 100520 05:45:56 mysqld_safe Fatal error: Can't remove the pid file: /var/db/mysql/scorpio.seibercom.net.pid Please remove it manually and start /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe again; mysqld daemon not started /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe: cannot create /var/db/mysql/scorpio.seibercom.net.err: Permission denied 100520 05:45:56 mysqld_safe Logging to '/var/db/mysql/scorpio.seibercom.net.err'. ******************************************************************* Is there some special configuration I have to setup on MySQL in order to get the server to work with it? I placed all of the pertinent information requested when I configured it; or at least I thought so. > > Test 12: ERROR > > -------- > > > > Current Akonadi server error log found. > > Details: The Akonadi server did report error during startup into <a > > href='/home/gerard/.local/share/akonadi/akonadiserver.error'>/home/gerard/. > > local/share/akonadi/akonadiserver.error</a>. > > > > File content of > > '/home/gerard/.local/share/akonadi/akonadiserver.error': "[ > > 0: 0x414701 <_Z11akBacktracev+865> > > at /usr/local/kde4/bin/akonadiserver 1: 0x7fffffffffc4 > > ] > > " > > The most common case for a backtrace in the log is database > connection failure or loss. > I have no personal experience with using a system wide MySQL daemon > so I won't be able to give you any hints on how to check that its > setup is correct. > > > Apparently, there is a problem with 'dbus' although I am not able to > > figure out what.
