--- Comment #7 from Hans-Peter Guggenbichler <hanspet...@gmx.net> --- On some forums (I don't remember on which ones) I read, that this is related to contacts with a birthday field. So I tried this: 1) backup all contacts from ~/.local/share/contacts remove all contacts from contacts directory (~/.local/share/contacts) stop akonadi remove all akonadi related files start akonadi Result: kaddressbook starts, is usable, is empty, of course 2) add some contacts to the contacts dir. ensure that there is no BDAY field in any of them stop akonadi remove all akonadi related files start akonadi Result: kaddressbook starts, is usable ! 3) add all the other contacts to contacts dir. Now there are many of them with a BDAY field. stop akonadi remove all akonadi related files start akonadi Result: kaddressbook starts, is usable !?!?!?!? I don't know why, but now it is working. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
