ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Jarosław Staniek 2020-05-29 10:09:46 UTC
Thanks for the report. Are you able to try creating a new database on an MySQL  or PostgreSQL server please? This can help to narrow down the area.

Also does the opening an existing .kexi file work?
Comment 2 Jarosław Staniek 2020-05-29 10:12:04 UTC
Another question, do you experience these crashes after system's update? KEXI was not updated since 3.2.0 is the most recent one, so we need to know if there's an issue with any package used by KEXI.

Hi,

Opening an existing Kexi database:

kexi-3.2
gui updated 3 min. ago, next auto-update in 57 min.

Thanks. Backtrace (stack trace) would be needed for this crash. You may need to find out how to obtain it in Mageia.

Comment 7 Jarosław Staniek 2020-05-31 21:35:27 UTC
Thanks. The file only shows what are the files accessed. E.g. /home/antonio/Documentos/Silbato.kexi was not found. Not sure it should already exist before the crash though. 

If even opening any .kexi file crashes for you we shall focus on that activity one and not on importing mdb files.

Hi,

I don't think it should exist previously, since it is the result of
importing the .mdb file.

For opening .kexi files, the attached file.

Thanks,

Comment 10 Jarosław Staniek 2020-06-01 08:45:47 UTC
Thanks. I've not concluded anything special from the strace log.
Debug packages for KEXI / KDb would be needed. I am unsure how and if this is available for the distribution. 

It seems there is a way for Megeia, please follow the loing in this section: https://community.kde.org/Kexi/File_a_bug_or_wish#In_case_of_crashes

So it's best if the crash dialog appears with the stack trace (in a Developer tab like this https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Crash.21 ).
Comment 11 Justin Zobel 2022-10-10 11:16:40 UTC
Thank you for reporting this crash in KDE software. As it has been a while since this issue was reported, can we please ask you to see if you can reproduce the crash with a recent software version?

If you can reproduce the issue, please change the status to "CONFIRMED" when replying. Thank you!
Comment 12 Antonio García 2022-10-10 19:48:17 UTC
Still the same problem, sorry

Comment 13 Jarosław Staniek 2022-10-10 20:01:14 UTC
@Justin 
I wanted to say the 3.2.0 is still the newest so such questions do not move us forward.
