Package: akonadi-backend-mysql Version: 4:22.08.3-1 Severity: normal User: debian...@lists.debian.org X-Debbugs-Cc: p...@hands.com
Hello maintainers of akonadi-backend-mysql, As seen on the recent live images for Sid: https://openqa.debian.net/tests/113442#step/kmail/1 kmail (and kaddressbook, korganizer and pimdataexporter) do not start the akonadi server properly; the akonadi server crashes. Some investigation using strace suggests that a mariadb server cannot be started on a location that uses overlayfs, because the fallocate function return 0 instead of the allocated space. I've found a work-around: I've installed akonadi-backend-sqlite instead of akonadi-backend-mysql. However, the mysql backend is installed per default, because it is the first backend listed in the dependencies. What do you propose? Should the live images install akonadi-backend-sqlite instead of akonadi- backend-mysql? Step to get a working akonadi while in a live environment: * apt-get install akonadi-backend-sqlite * apt-get remove --purge akonadi-backend-mysql * apt autoremove * # Delete all user settings: * find ~ -name "*akonadi*" -delete -print * akonadictl start With kind regards, Roland Clobus PS If the link above went stale, use this: - Go to https://openqa.debian.net/group_overview/14 - Go to the latest sid_kde image - Go to the link with 'apps_startstop' - Under 'Logs & Assets', the actual ISO image can be downloaded -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.0.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages akonadi-backend-mysql depends on: pn default-mysql-client-core | virtual-mysql-client-core <none> pn default-mysql-server-core | virtual-mysql-server-core <none> pn libqt5sql5-mysql <none> Versions of packages akonadi-backend-mysql recommends: pn akonadi-server <none> akonadi-backend-mysql suggests no packages.
