well if I understand the ERROR correctly - mysqld complains about the missing directory /var/libs/mysql-files. Does this directory exits? > It wouldn't have helped this time, but we have had regressions in > akonadi in the past due to MySQL changes too.

Just try to start the mysql db from the akonadi defaults-file should be feasible. Best Regards, sandro
