Crash appear in TIFF loader which use libtiff. I recommend to check libtiff version installed on your computer (Help/Components info menu entry). Also, i recommend to install last digiKam 1.3.0. Gilles Caulier Thank you for hints; so it looks like a lib-problem!? Under OS Ubuntu 10.04, I use OS-updates rather than updatung single progs; I think, I have to wait a little.

It is a TIFF file, the name may be printed on the console shortly before the crash, and it happens when _reading_ the file (scanning triggered by the file changes). Dear Marcel: thank you for your mail. As I answered to Gilles suggestion (comment #1), that I prefer keeping my system congruent and do install my distri, here UBUNTO 10.04, which is "Long Term Serviced" (LTS); maybe, this does not comply perfectly with subsequently refined software modules as it is with DIGIKAM, e.g. Controversely to my own speech (and as I wrote), I did follow http://www.digikam.org/drupal/node/528 to update DIGIKAM to 1.3 under 10.04. >> Crashes, nothing worked anymore. Needed new system-installation (+ lost half a day... :-( ). Unfortunately, it is some time back, when this crashes occured. And I did not note the pic's name :-( ! That's why, I don't really know the right picture anymore. I'afraid! Sorry! Given the pictures date an dthe assumption that is was a *.tif pic, one migth assume some potential risky pics. These have image sizes between 38,3 and 299,1 MB. I have no idea, how to send these over an "normal" eMail-account. Some time ago, I asked for a tool to check pictures integrity (for whatever type of defectness). If one had such a tool, one could exclude certain pic's to a "quarantane" as virus checkers often do. Do you want some of those pics? How can we get along with? Is there a small image checker tool? Happy to help. Let me know! Axel P.S.: tif-pics occur only as products of hugin-panorama; at this moment, I own 110 with max size about 1000 MB (usually, this crazy volume are converted to png or smaller jpg's) The crash occurs when opening an image with libtiff, deep inside libtiff. We dont really want to read the image, just get some information. This must be some libtiff problem.
There are some tools that come with libtiff, like "tiffinfo". You could try something like
find /media/fotos/Digikam\ Sample/ -name \*.tif -or -name \*.tiff -print -exec tiffinfo {} \;
and see if tiffinfo also crashes at some point.

You'll get it under <http://www.dropbox.com/help/16> Folder /Photos/Bilder, DSC_0202.NEF (resp. DSC_0202.jpg; *.NEF = NIKON-Raw) Sorry, I do not have any experience with net-storage. The link leads me to the help page explaining how to create a link to a file... What's new there ? Please try using digiKam 1.4.0...

My UBUNTU 10.04 LTS ist working completely fine and stable- I just like to keep a rubning system. As you remember about 2 weeks ago: I experienced system crashes when installing DIGIKAM 1.4 following <http://www.digikam.org/drupal/node/528> . You told me therefore to ask KDE-team for answers, without any response. Why is DIGIKAM related to KDE?? Why don`t using an OS optimized for stability as UBUNTU, DEBIAN ( you told me, what you use yourself ) Tt is hard to be dependent on such a DESKTOP for _one_ very favourable program as DIGIKAM!!! I beg you for mercy!!! Axel digiKam 1.6.0 is out: http://www.digikam.org/drupal/node/550 Please update and check if this entry still valid. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier Coming back to comments #5 and #6: The dropbox location never worked, at least with the given link. It is all right for me to send a file of a few MB to my personal mail account though, this could be easier. We need feedback using a recent version. 2.0.0 RC is out, please test... Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier Gilles: sorry for delay, I am very busy in job, right now. Since 2.0rc, I checked writing... - rebuild all thumbnails, - writing fingerprints - writing metadata as single task and all at the time. It took from 8 hours to 2,5 days, but no crash occured any more. Hope this helps Axel Ok, i close this file now. reopen if necessary Gilles Caulier Am 21.07.2011 11:31, schrieb Gilles Caulier:
