Created attachment 51315 [details] screenshot with error message Version: 1.2.0 (using KDE 4.4.2) OS: Linux when deleting pics, I get message shon in screenshot (compare with attachment) as much as I know, KDE and Gnome use the same trashbin; this trashbin is empty, even _no_ hidden files Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: digiKam version 1.2.0 AVI: 59 BMP: 1 GIF: 100 JPG: 44390 PNG: 214 RAW-CR2: 629 RAW-CRW: 10897 RAW-DNG: 2 RAW-NEF: 15628 TIFF: 200 Gesamtzahl der Einträge: 72120 : Alben: 931 Stichwörter: 21 Actual Results: Remark: can NOT judge on severity, as I do not even know, if this is an error of digikam!!! OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-24-generic Compiler: cc
Try to reproduce the problem with 1.4.0 release... Gilles Caulier
at Comment #1 (Gilles Caultier): I tried installing the latest Digikam on UBUNTU 10.04 "LTS" which means "Long Term Support" or so following these instructions: <http://www.digikam.org/drupal/node/528>. My system wouldn't start anymore... I had to re-install my complete system!! As I statet these experiences already some weeks ago, I like to know, if these findings were confirmed by anyone, and/or the problems I experienced were resolved. I supposed, that "LTS" and the fast development progress of DIGIKAM doesn't fit together... Do you agree?? Axel
Compiling and installing digiKam yourself definitely should not harm your system in any such way, that would force you to perform a whole system reinstall. About the - "LTS and the fast development progress of DIGIKAM doesn't fit together" - well that's not quite digiKam's problem, is it? If you find this wrong, report it with Ubuntu bugzilla to their packaging team. We just can't follow all distro's release dates and release accordingly. Also to the bug itself - what happens if you try to delete a file with some other KDE app, for example Gwenview or Dolphin? Please try this and report back your results.

But please take into account: I don NOT argue- I just put a QUESTION! If there is a confirmation for installation problems, I accept the situation to "be on the safe side". If I weren't happy with DIGIKAM, I didn't use it :-) ! If you find this > wrong, report it with Ubuntu bugzilla to their packaging team.

After rebooting the system, the files were away. Under the attempt to delete other files within DIGIKAM, the same error message as before. This was one reason for what I assumed this problem has to deal with DIGIKAM somehow.
Same problem as above, my OS is: OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-28-generic and i'm running Gnome Thanks and regards Antonio
Just to help: this problem seems to be related to a 64 bits environment; If I run digikam on my 32 bits laptop with the same software levels, all run error free Regards Antonio
I tryed another test: I create a virtual machine running the same software as the native machine aMD64 kernel 2.6.32-28-generic digikam 1.2.0 In this environment the delete function works fine! Regards Antonio
trash management is delegate to KDELibs. Which KDE version you use in this virtual machine ? Gilles Caulier

Problems seem to occur with 64 bit-systems with my computers, too. Latest OS is UBUNTU 10.10 (maverick), DK 1.80 on 64 bit. Just a few days ago, I had to empty trashbin manually again. Axel (question aside: how long this error is dealt as "unconfirmed"?)
Hello people, I solved my problem, I hope that will help you too! First of all I have to describe better how my digikam it's configured: I have only one album and this album is physically placed on a separated disk; what appen is that I con't delete, using digikam, files placed in that disk. If I create another album, let me say, physically placed in the images directory in my user directoy (/home/antonio/immagini) I can do the delete task so, the problem should be in the file permission area. In the root directory of the disk of my album collection it's present thisdirectory drwx------ 5 antonio antonio 4096 2011-02-20 09:04 .Trash-1000 I believe that is the trash directory; if I change the octal permission to 744 like drwxr--r-- 5 antonio antonio 4096 2011-02-20 09:04 .Trash-1000 Ican use the delete function from digikam. Since I'm a Linux newby I really don't know why but this works!! Is there a guru that can explain what appen? I hope that will help all people that have same problem. Excuse me for my bad english regards Antonio
