--- Comment #7 from Peder Chr. Nørgaard <[email protected]> --- I succeeded in working around the problem - not that the problem in any way is solved. What I did was to kill me entire KDE configuration (the ~/.kde directory) and kill the akonadi (~/.local/share/akonadi and ~/.config/akonadi) - all done from a console login, so KDE itself was not active during the process. Then login again via KDE and laboriously configure all of KDE from the beginning (fortunately, I had most of it documented). My actual mail archive (in ~/.local/share/local-mail) survived (I did take a backup first!), and was accessible from my reconfigured KMail. This info above is just information that may help others that are hit by the same problem. Now some info about the problem itself: I tried to do some debugging while the problem was still manifest. I did not figure out much, the entire KMail setup is too complex for me to figure out in my spare time. I did discover the source of the report - it is thrown in kdepimlibs, in the method Akonadi::SpecialCollectionsRequestJob::slotResult. But then that is because of an error situation established earlier in some callback processing of a DBus communication - at that point I ran out of time :-) If anyone are interested in solving the basic problem - that something may happen during the 4.11 update that can render KMail useless with a useless error message - I still have a copy of my old ~/.kde - if someone are interested, I will provide copies of selected files to this bug report. But I do not know what exactly to provide, and I will not dump the entire shebang on you ... I may even be able to re-manifest the bug if I try real hard, but will not give any promises. This is really a two-tier bug - bug 1, the update creates a problem, bug 2, that problem manifests itself by throwing a far-too-lowlevel error message to the defenseless user. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Kdepim-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-bugs
