the log file is not very helpful, as this is the Akonadi one. Can you crate the 
log file from korganizer?

Don't blame Akonadi, Akonadi don't even care about the content of an event. 
For Akonadi this is only data, that is sent from Korganizer. Akonadi don't 
even parse this data. That's why Akonadi don't even know that you created a 
full day event or a 5 min one. Your description is more like a bug inside 
Korganizer.

What backend you use to store those events? a local ical file, on a server, 
using CalDav? As those backends have very different permission systems.
