Did you have to set up an akonadi db user and passwd?
Yes. You need to create a user with password on the database where akonadi can create the tables. Here is my akonadi-config: *** % cat .config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc [%General] Driver=QPSQL [QPSQL] Name=joost-akonadi Host=localhost Options= ServerPath=/usr/bin/pg_ctl InitDbPath=/usr/bin/initdb StartServer=false User=<username> Password=<password> Port=5432 [Debug] Tracer=null *** It also works with the database running on a different machine. -- Joost
