Hi!
When I try to rename an album that already has subalbums, I get an error message.
"Error renaming album"

Where are your collections ? NAS ?
Which kind of database ?
What's the file path of your album before and the expected after ?

It's probably locked by another Windows program or another user on the network. There's actually nothing we can do about it, as has already been reported.

Album monitoring on 2 instances can also cause this problem.

Hi!
die Daten befinden sich auf einem NAS
MariaDB-Server Remote auf Synology

z.B.
Alt: "\\synology\photo\_Fotos - allgemein\2025\20250727 - Urlaub Italien\20250729 - Hotel, Mailand"
Neu: "\\synology\photo\_Fotos - allgemein\2025\20250727 - Urlaub Italien\20250729 - Mailand, Hotel"

Das Problem gab es gestern bereits, bevor die Albumüberwachung aktiviert wurde.
Comment 4 Andy 2025-08-16 11:54:44 UTC
I've tested it again extensively.
It's due to the active album monitoring. When this is active, the album name can't be changed if it contains sub-albums.
