Bug Description

After upgrading to 11.10 beta 2, I got a message saying migration failed when trying to start Kontact. It suggested I should try kmail-migrator but:
$ kmail-migrator --interactive
kmail-migrator(5811) main: Migration of kmailrc has already run, not running it again

And trying to start kmail directly (presumably with none of my data) give me a tip of the day and then "KMail encoutered a fatal error and will terminate now. The error was: Failed to fetch the resource collection".

I have backups of my mail and contacts, but if the migration has failed for my very basic and unmodified usage, it probably needs to be looked at.

There seems to be no pattern as to which stay and which don't.

One folder had only 1 item in it, and it was grey (and I recall deleting it) but Kmail still showed a blue "(1)" as if it was a new message.

So it seems something is very out of sync somehow

Even after removing and adding the address book sources, neither show up in kadddressbook. That and the 'inbox full of grey deleted message' and 'keep getting pointless conflict prompts' bugs mean I don't feel kmail2 should be inflicted on the masses yet.

Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.1)
OS: Linux

Migration in Kmail2 failed After update from KDE 4.6.5 to 4.7.1.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Actual Results:
When Kmail2 started first time after update there was error message about failed migration and that need to run "kmail-migrator --interactive" manually.

But when running "kmail-migrator --interactive" I got error message:
Migration of kmailrc has already run, not running it again

I restored backup of ~/.kde and figured out that if run "kmail-migrator --interactive" before first start Kmail2 then migration will be successful.
But if Kmail2 started first then migration will be failed.

Expected Results:
Migration should work when starting Kmail2.

Thanks, Clay! I removed ~/.kde/share/config/kmail-migratorrc and re-ran "kmail-migrator --interactive". This time I got a the migration tool to complete and show a "succeeded" check mark at the end. The command line showed some errors or warnings. The message notification widget showed a bunch of errors about the different email folders I have, and the 3 cores in the desktop have been churning for 10 minutes, apparently importing my emails (I have email back to 1995 in this machine) into the different email folders I used to have. I will report again when it finishes up.

Below are some typical errors shown in the terminal.

So, here is a summary of the migration (see comment #18 above):

• it completed successfully after a long time (more than one hour for about 20k emails on a 3core fast desktop)
• it added a new IMAP Google account/folder I didn’t have and seemed to slow things down significantly
• it created some Local Folders (besides KMail folders) and placed a few of my “Inbox” emails in the Local Folders’ Inbox. The rest stayed in the right Inbox within “KMail Folders”. This is probably a result of the first failed migration
• I used to have Kontact to autostart on login. I wonder if, after distro upgrade, Kontact started before akonadi and the original migration failed because of that
• KWallet was disabled and that created also lots of errors/grief. I ran KWallet from the menu and activated it for use with KDE. After that, password management got smoother (without that, the second migration worked, but I would have to retype each account’s password after each login to KDE)

Hope this helps!

Yes, I think you should change that. When/if there will be another migration of this kind needed, the user might want THAT migration to happen.

This version of the patch disables only this migration permanently and not future ones (with new target versions.)

That said, I'm not convinced that that hunk is correct in the first place. Does a user really expect a "no" to be permanent? I'd expect it to be a "Not now", not a "Never".

By the way, the commit which caused this regression is this commit by David Faure:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdepim-runtime/repository/revisions/60f8c01542f86bd04cafd68b91c2f609d73d4aa2
which added the check preventing running the migration manually when it was already run.

Well I can add to the cacophony of failure. I downloaded the full release of 11.10 yesterday and immediately got most of the errors that others have seen above. I currently have no email, but can get Contacts. Also, for some reason I cannot get my calendar to work either.

Unless someone has a fix for this pretty darn quick, I'm going to have to seriously consider a clean installation. Since that will mean me recreating all of my accounts, aliases and filters, I am thinking hard about moving to another package, like Thunderbird or Evolution. At the moment, it is mainly Kontact that has kept me with Kubuntu, so the end result of all this might well be (another) lost Kubuntu user.

*Please*; if anyone can offer any hope for a fix in the near future, please say now.

Sorry to rant on, but the decision to leave this bug in the full release was foolhardy in the extreme. It could be very serious for Kubuntu if many others have the same problem as the rest of the people on this list.

Perhaps it's time for radical thought and considering the provision of a roll-back solution?

Not release ready. Obvious bugs. Makes you wonder who's been dog fooding this before it went to beta, and why feedback from the beta didn't set alarm bells ringing doesn't it ?

OK. Things are a little better since I found this: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/OneiricOcelot/Final/Kubuntu/Kmail2. I had to jump through hoops to stop Kontact exiting after the error, but once I was in, I was able to import all my mail manually. However, I spent most of yesterday evening doing it instead of doing something useful (or fun).

I hope that the link and my experience will help people who find their way to this bug, but I have to say again that I suspect there will be legions of people who just give up and move to another suite, like I almost did.

This problem needs fixing fast!

I just had another crash.

 Partially helpful, thank you... now I no longer have the "Failed to fetch
resource collection" but

1) a collection of error messages during the interactive migration "KMail
folders: unusable configuration".
2) a migration request when i start kmail
3) no mails in the correctly transfered directory/folder structure

Is there an ETA for the migration script to work properly? Is it currently planned to fix it or just not in the agenda?

I have arround 200 Kubuntu 11.04 installations in a corporate environment and its just not acceptable to ask all users to backup and import all their PIM data manually, so I've disabled update-notifier for the moment.

Thank you.

Has this been improved with KDE 4.8 ?

The upstream bug report https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=283563 doesn't appear to have been addressed at all, but it's quite possible that doesn't signify anything.
