Version: 1.3.0 (rev.: 1120293) (using 4.4.1 (KDE 4.4.1), 4.4.1-6.fc11 Fedora) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i686.PAE I use digikam with a mounted drive (which digikam doesn't know about == mount via linux) and there used to be a "new user" dialog when I start digikam and when I've forget to mount the driver. Now there are some error dialogs. I thought that there might some new "strategy" ;) but with a brand new account I get some error dialog that there is "Error while opening the db" and "digikam will try to automaticaly reconnect .." :] (God bless him, I hope he success today ;)
Bartek, a lot has been changed in this area recently in SVN. Please test again. Is only the database on the drive, or also the digikamrc config file?
can you test with digikam 1.7.0 and reopen this bugreport if still valid ?

Screen attached. This dialog is presented when digikam can't find the database file. The info is a bit misleading. rev.: 1201481
