[Kde-pim] Akonadi disaster

[Anne Wilson]

I'm (deliberately) running Fedora 12 with KDE 4.3.85 and for the first time I 
find that Akonadi is running with kde-pim.  Initially I had constant crashes, 
often finding it very difficult to get Kontact to start again.  I was, 
however, able to run applications stand-alone, so that managed while I tried 
to sort it out.  After watching screens of output I came to the conclusion 
that Akonadi was searching for a folder called Local, under, IIRC, 
/home/anne/.local/share/.  The folder didn't exist, of course.  I pointed it 
to /home/anne/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail/inbox, and, after several seconds of 
'thinking about it' Kontact started up.  At that point I though I was on a 
winner :-)

The shock came this morning when I restarted Kontact.  My addressbook was 
empty - something I haven't seen for years.  I restored the file from a backup 
one, but I can't find any way of persuading the content to show up.  I presume 
the database says I have no contacts in my addressbook.  How can I put this 
right?  Thanks

Anne
