Hi!

Reported as:

Bug 292393 - [PostgreSQL backend] akonadictl tries to start outdated 
version of PostgreSQL server and crashes

https://bugs.kde.org/292393

but I thought I ask here - maybe there is an easy workaround.

I tried setting Akonadi-Server to start the database server itself.

Currently I do use a central PostgreSQL server that works fine. But to have 
the Akonadi data in my home directory or central backup of all user data 
and to have akonadictl stop all whats being needed to make Akonadi data 
consistent in that it also stops the PostgreSQL server, I tried setting it 
to Startserver=true like this:

[QPSQL]
Name=
Host=
Options=
StartServer=true


But then Akonadi fails to start the PostgreSQL server since it tries with 
an outdated version thats not installed. I have:

merkaba:~> apt-show-versions | grep postgresql
akonadi-backend-postgresql/experimental uptodate 1.6.2-1
postgresql/wheezy uptodate 9.1+128
postgresql-9.1/sid uptodate 9.1.2-4
postgresql-client-9.1/sid uptodate 9.1.2-4
postgresql-client-common/wheezy uptodate 128
postgresql-common/wheezy uptodate 128
postgresql-contrib-9.1/sid uptodate 9.1.2-4


The output of akonadictl start:

martin@merkaba:~/.config/akonadi> akonadictl start

"akonadiserver" crashed too often and will not be restarted! 


I think I will report this as bug as well, but maybe someone knows an easy 
workaround.
