Description ultrajej 2011-09-13 13:10:14 UTC
Version:           1.9.0 (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

I am running Kubuntu 11.04 using KDE 4.7.0 from backport.
Digikam 1.9.0 was working fine but I wanted the update to 2.10 from Philip backport

The install went through to point it is scanning my Photo folders (on NTFS drive). It never opened. As I will install 11.10 when its ready I decided to reinstall 1.90. This one is not opening anymore both from shortcut and console.

Having something like that:

I always as to kill the task manually

I tried some solutions from current threads without success. I finally tried something (bad for Linux users):
I typed: sudo digkam
It cannot save my folders when I restart but it is opening Digikam. That a temporary workaround.

How can I fix that for my user with 1.90?

By the way the error with 2.10 was

You are mixing incompatible repositories.

Thanks for that info but I already guessed that. My question is what can I do to fixed that? 
I already removed Philips ppa.

I am really tired of trying to move from Windows to Linux as nothing is easy and believe me I really like the KDE windows manager. Digikam is THE software who made me to move to the Linux world.
Just to entertain you a bit more (I am not looking for support for that). It is impossible to make Peazip QT working on Kubuntu but the GTK version is working (not perfectly of course).
Can it be kubuntu?
Comment 3 ultrajej 2011-09-19 14:02:16 UTC
I was able to workaround my issue.

1) I will use 1.90.

2) As root "sudo digikam" produced for me the database files that I deleted before.
I saved them in some location.
digikam4.db
thumbnails-digikam.db
I made a copy of those to my /home/image folder after having changed privileges on it.

3) Using the info from the Bug 281767
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=281767

Edit ~/.kde/share/config/digikamrc, the section [Database Settings]
should contain only the following:
[Database Settings]
Database Connectoptions=
Database Hostname=
Database Name=/a/path/to/dir
Database Name Thumbnails=/a/path/to/dir
Database Password=
Database Port=0
Database Type=QSQLITE
Database Username=
Internal Database Server=false

no Image* or Thumbnails*, if these are present remove them
also check that values in there are correct.
Of course /a/path/to/dir was replaced by my /home/image directory

4) Restarted Digikam and voila! It is working back.




NB: The next release will wait until I will install another distribution.
Unfortunately I tried to compile unsuccessfully the latest release (digikam-2.1.1.tar.bz2).
