OK, figured it out myself: $ mysql --socket=/tmp/akonadi-${USER}.rp6WPG/mysql.socket mysql> use akonadi mysql> DELETE FROM PartTable WHERE name = 'GID'; mysql> quit Bye $ akonadictl start
That helped and akonadi database migration was successfully completed. KMail is now working again. P.S. Nota, that exact name of your akonadi mysqld instance temporary socket file will be different, use the following command to find it out: $ ps aux | grep mysqld Then look for the line in the output with the following parameter: --datadir=/home/$USER/.local/share/akonadi/db_data/. Copy the --socket= parameter from the same line to start mysql textmode client above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1290717 Title: akonadi 1.11.80 fails to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/akonadi/+bug/1290717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
