Comment 1 Maik Qualmann 2023-01-30 17:30:04 UTC 
Have you waited long enough? The imported folders and files must first be recorded by the scanner in the background and saved in the database.

Without a GDB backtrace we can't help. How this is created is described here:

```code block?
digikam.general: Action Thread run  1  new jobs
digikam.database: No itemShortInfo could be retrieved from the database for image "001"
digikam.iojob: Thread Finished
digikam.general: One job is done
digikam.general: Cancel Main Thread
```

in this example I have selected a folder, named 001, it contains 23 jpg files, not clear what happens here
Comment 4 Thijs 2023-01-30 18:45:25 UTC 
edit button?

it seems that when I'm in the 'Add folder' window (add screenshot button?) and I open the folder I want to import it secretly selects the first file in that folder while I am in the 'folder selection' view, so when I press Choose it actually tries to process the file using the folder processor? I have activated the QT logging but I don't see a related log line

Maik,

Do you understand exactly this report ? I'm lost...

Comment 6 Maik Qualmann 2023-05-03 05:33:15 UTC 
I don't understand Comment 4 either. Are you trying to select multiple folders in the file dialog?
I would close the bug, there was a bug when importing folders that the scanner was not started correctly after the import.

Maik,

right if there is a duplicate entry, it's better to factorize.

Thijs,

What's about this file using current 8.2.0 AppImage Linux bundle ? It's
reproducible ?
