update to last 4.12.0 instead 3.5.0 and try again... 3.5.0 is very old now.

Problem persists, no change in behaviour. What next? I am on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, by the way. Regards ...

I removed the old database and digikamrc and started from scratch. Took quite a while to rebuild the database, but now everything works again. |
digikam had worked before with an album collection. Now, on start, digikam gives the error message: 'No album library path has been found in the configuration file. Giving up the schema updating process. Please try with an empty database, or repair your configuration.' After proceeding with 'ok', I tried to add a local collection in Settings->'configure digikam'. The previously used path (on main system harddisk) is remembered. When trying to add this collection path ('ok'), the message is: 'It was not possible to add a collection for the following paths: <name of path>'. There is write access to the path. Trying other path names also fails.
