Digikam (5.8.0 for windows) crashes when manually stopping a database sync (by clicking the "cancel this operation" button on the bottom right corner). I update the database from "Tools -> Maintenance -> Sync Metadata and Database -> From image metadata to database". I have been able to replicate this error several times, and it crashes consistently. An error window with the following message appears: "digikam.exe has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if solution is available." I tried looking at DebugView, but no messages related to the crash appear.
This problem is already fixed. Please try with the digiKam-5.9.0 pre-release AppImage: https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Maik
Not with the AppImage, the Windows bundles are there too. Maik
Ok, I can confirm that with the latest windows bundle (digiKam-5.9.0-20180304T171700-Win64.exe) this does not happen anymore. Thanks!
