 Posted: Mon Oct 18, 2010 8:35 am Post subject: Latency in KMail after system upgrade |
 |
|
I recently upgraded my system by doing emerge -uDN world
After the upgrade I experience latency in the KMail application. Every now and then the response to keyboard commands just pauses for about 20 seconds. Likewise if I type a mail and click the send button KMail just freezes for about 20 second before the mail is expedited.
Has anyone experienced the same with KMail? Any cure?

+1 
I suspect something in which akonadi would be involved but that is nothing more than suspiscion.
EDIT : I also read about this, recommendations to test under some all brand new user account and if the problem does not occur then redo kde configuration from scratch...  ... had of course no time for this... |

My suspicion also lean towards akonadi.
Is this someone else can confirm?

When you start kmail the first time, do you get an Akonadi dialog box, listing the self-test routine with success/failures?

No, I have never seen the self test.......
I have akonadi installed though:

I found the Akonadi Tray Utility under Utilities in the KDE menu.
Under the section Akonadi Server Configuration I could run the test. It shows (I just show details where errors were found):

There are obviously some errors. But I am not sure what actually went wrong or how to mitigate the errors.

The Gentoo default is recently changed to sqlite instead of mysql. I got rid of my kmail/akonadi mysql errors by moving over to sqlite, but there are a few hoops to jump through first. Take a look here for more details. https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-847971-highlight-.html
After moving to sqlite, don't unmerge mysql, as a few other apps might need it. Doesn't seem to conflict on my box. You can remove any the
akonadiserver.error files.
BTW, do you now have a /home/philip/.config directory, and if so, what's in it?

Well, I trust you wrc1944, however, I must have missed something somewhere...
| Maciej Mrozowski in Gentoo Bug 306539 wrote: | | sqlite backend is functional starting with akonadi-1.4.0, earlier it wasn't much of a use. |
As far as I understand philip's posts, philip is running Akonadi 1.3.1 (Me too)
This in addition with considering the number of bugs involving sqlite still open in this environment, I would not consider moving from mysql to sqlite as a good idea.
BTW, I would hope being wrong and wrc1944 right. |

I would rather stay with mysql than mixing two db environments. However I see that sqlite has been drawn in from some dependency

Do you experience the same problems I have?

I may have achieved some progress here.
First I read the mysql howto at [url] http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/mysql-howto.xml[/url]
Lazy as I am I have never configured my mysql environment.
I did:
| Code: | | emerge --config =dev-db/mysql-5.1.50-r1 |
and then:
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/mysql start |
I used the KDE --> Utilities --> Aknodaditray application to view akonadi self test and also to stop and then start the akanadi server.
Now two of the error messages in the Akonadi server has disappeared. One remains, which still seems related to mysql:
| Code: | 101019 14:20:12 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 1214781
101019 14:20:12 [Warning] Can't open and lock time zone table: Table 'mysql.time_zone_leap_second' doesn't exist trying to live without them
101019 14:20:12 [ERROR] Can't open and lock privilege tables: Table 'mysql.servers' doesn't exist
101019 14:20:12 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: '5.1.50-log' socket: '/home/philip/.local/share/akonadi/db_misc/mysql.socket' port: 0 Gentoo Linux mysql-5.1.50-r1 |

The previous error | Quote: | | [Warning] Can't open and lock time zone table: Table 'mysql.time_zone_leap_second' doesn't exist trying to live without them |
went away with the tip in this link:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=695037#p695037
But new errors get logged:
| Quote: | "[

1: akonadiserver() [0x8052d2c]

3: /usr/lib/libdbus-1.so.3(+0xb79a) [0xb750e79a]
]
" |
and
| Quote: | Unable to register service as org.freedesktop.Akonadi.Control Maybe it's already running?

This is really frustrating
