Description HubMiner 2025-09-30 10:43:15 UTC

SUMMARY
Digikam crashes when doing Maintenance - Face Training.

The crash happens with many apps running and with no other apps running.
I estimate the crash happens sometimes after 75%.

I ran option under "perform database cleaning" a few times.

Overall impact is that "recognize faces" no longer works.

If there anything else I can do within Digikam,
or accessing DB files directly with DB utils? 
Try to migrate DB to something else?


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows 11, 16GB RAM, an older i7 CPU, MariaDB.

Please test the pre-release digiKam-8.8.0. Depending on your MariaDB version, the face database update may fail.

I tested just once, 8.8 prerelease, with MariaDB.
It didn't crash.
