Looking at the code, I remembered that the MySQL details are merely for a 
cache and that the program should function without this cache. Moreover, given 
a suitable database to point the program at, the program should be able to 
create the necessary tables, although this will depend on what rights the 
selected database user will have.

I imagine that creating a new database, maybe creating a corresponding user 
with table creation privileges, and then specifying those details in 
kolab.conf will make the program happy and not fill the log file with 
messages.
