Bug 279580

same problem here:
digikam(25633)/digikam (core): DBVersion not available! Giving up schema upgrading. 

while creating new database.

Also using latin1 for file names is a little bit old fashioned.

Hi, I'm on a guest pc so cannot test before write but a know to work procedure is:

1) create a sqlite database
2) create an empty mysql schema say "digikam"
3) give all privileges to a user, on the schema "digikam" and flush privileges
4) migrate from sqlite to mysql

It's not possible at the moment to use two separate databases for mysql, it's an open bug which is actively worked on.

In any case it's important for me to know what don't go as expected,adding the following to your my.cnf, in the section [mysqld] allow for logging mysql queryes:
[mysqld]
general_log_file = /var/log/mysql/general_log.sql
/var/log/mysql/ must be existant and with owner mysql

and something like the following to $HOME/.kde4/share/config/kdebugrc, replace the path with a suitable one, the real interesting one is 50003

please, if possible attach the logs for a failed attempt to this bug
I'll be slow to answer until after aug 15

mysql schema - missing procedure "create_index_if_not_exists"

as a "dirty fix" you may use the following syntax (fixed from /usr/share/apps/digikam/database/dbconfig.xml by adding delimiter tags)

thanks for 50003.log, it was very helpful

<sql>
delimiter //

                CREATE PROCEDURE create_index_if_not_exists(table_name_vc varchar(50), index_name_vc varchar(50), field_list_vc varchar(1024))
                SQL SECURITY INVOKER
                BEGIN

                set @Index_cnt = (
                    SELECT COUNT(1) cnt
                    FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.STATISTICS
                    WHERE CONVERT(DATABASE() USING latin1) = CONVERT(TABLE_SCHEMA USING latin1)
                      AND CONVERT(table_name USING latin1) = CONVERT(table_name_vc USING latin1)
                      AND CONVERT(index_name USING latin1) = CONVERT(index_name_vc USING latin1)
                );

                IF IFNULL(@Index_cnt, 0) = 0 THEN
                    set @index_sql = CONCAT(
                        CONVERT( 'ALTER TABLE ' USING latin1),
                        CONVERT( table_name_vc USING latin1),
                        CONVERT( ' ADD INDEX ' USING latin1),
                        CONVERT( index_name_vc USING latin1),
                        CONVERT( '(' USING latin1),
                        CONVERT( field_list_vc USING latin1),
                        CONVERT( ');' USING latin1)
                    );
                    PREPARE stmt FROM @index_sql;
                    EXECUTE stmt;
                    DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;
                END IF;


                END //

DELIMITER ;
</sql>

This should happen only when using two different schema for images metadata and thumbnail, could you confirm?

confirmed, i had 2 separate schemas for digikam & thumbs since support of the mysql engine was added to digikam

@Thomas, from comment #3

Why we need to use "DELIMITER //" with create_index_if_not_exists method ?

I tried to patch dbconfig.xml file following your tip without any improvement to fix this entry.

The delimiter here is a joke solution and did not work.

Git commit 74adf4f5dcdacc4b6574e61f55dac956fa4c7611 by Gilles Caulier.
Committed on 19/11/2015 at 14:38.
Pushed by cgilles into branch 'master'.

First stage to fix Mysql support:

- For Internal server:
  Use the current system user to run mysql_installdb program to init local database and server tables.
  The database is always installed in user account (~/.local/share/digikam/). The goal is to set this install path configurable as with SQlite.
  Check the value returned to start init and sever program with QProcess. If something is wrong abort the sequence and do not try to populate/use the database.
  This will fix a crash if DB backend is null at digiKam shutdown.
  Fix the default embeded mysql server configuration to not need grant privilege with index creation.

- For remote server:
  Fix the index creation procedure SQL statements to not check security rules. No more grant privilege is required,
  excepted for the DB tables and the standard DB user dedicated for digiKam use.
  Important : for a remote server, the database creation need to be instanced by administrator, using following SQL statements (which will be put in DB setup page later as helper):

  * For a common Mysql database storage :

  CREATE DATABASE digikamdb; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON digikamdb.* TO 'digikam'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'digikam'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

  with:

  digikamdb       : the common database name (storing Core, Thumbnails, and Face databases).
  digikam/digikam : the name/password of user account used by digiKam to access on mysql server.

  * For separated Mysql database storages :

  CREATE DATABASE digikamcoredb; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON digikamcoredb.* TO 'digikam'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'digikam'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
  CREATE DATABASE digikamthumbsdb; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON digikamthumbsdb.* TO 'digikam'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'digikam'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
  CREATE DATABASE digikamfacedb; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON digikamfacedb.* TO 'digikam'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'digikam'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

  with:

  digikamcoredb   : the Core database name.
  digikamthumbsdb : the Thumbnails database name.
  digikamfacedb   : the Face database name.
  digikam/digikam : the name/password of user account used by digiKam to access on mysql server.

- The Face recognition database is now fully integrated in Mysql support. A new settings have been add to DB setup page.
