Description tps 2015-10-19 06:56:49 UTC
Can not load most pictures (mostly jpg and png) without futher error messages or additional informations. Some jpg load. From ~10'000 pictures about 100 load the rest does not load instead a placeholder icon is displayed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install latest version available into Umbuntu 14.04.3
2. Start digikam, wait until database is updated
3. Open any of your configured folders

Actual Results:  
Only a few pictures are shown in preview. Most of them, if not all, only have a placeholder icon. Double clicking any of them only gives "Can not load picture". No more information on why.

Expected Results:  
Loading previews. Double clicking a preview opens the picture.

Turn on debug trace and run digiKam from a console. What did you see printed while preview is displayed ?

Look here for details about debug trace :

This problem is not reproducible with last 5.0.0
I close this file now. Re-open it if necessary.
