SUMMARY Using digiKam with a maria database on a remote device, when I close digiKam a set of warning messages appear in the journal of the remote device saying "error reading communication packets". STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Configure digiKam to use a mariadb on a remote device, and monitor the journal on that device (journalctl -f) 2. Launch digiKam (no journal messages) 3. Close digiKam either by closing the window or selecting Browse->Quit 4. Wait a few seconds OBSERVED RESULT Example warning messages: Jul 10 12:06:47 b3 mariadbd[622]: 2023-07-10 12:06:47 4118 [Warning] Aborted connection 4118 to db: 'digikamThumbs' user: 'paul' host: 'fe80::779b:c418:de09:7b29%eth0' (Got an error reading communication packets) Jul 10 12:06:47 b3 mariadbd[622]: 2023-07-10 12:06:47 4121 [Warning] Aborted connection 4121 to db: 'digikamCore' user: 'paul' host: 'fe80::779b:c418:de09:7b29%eth0' (Got an error reading communication packets) Jul 10 12:06:47 b3 mariadbd[622]: 2023-07-10 12:06:47 4117 [Warning] Aborted connection 4117 to db: 'digikamCore' user: 'paul' host: 'fe80::779b:c418:de09:7b29%eth0' (Got an error reading communication packets) Jul 10 12:06:47 b3 mariadbd[622]: 2023-07-10 12:06:47 4119 [Warning] Aborted connection 4119 to db: 'digikamCore' user: 'paul' host: 'fe80::779b:c418:de09:7b29%eth0' (Got an error reading communication packets) Jul 10 12:06:47 b3 mariadbd[622]: 2023-07-10 12:06:47 4120 [Warning] Aborted connection 4120 to db: 'digikamThumbs' user: 'paul' host: 'fe80::779b:c418:de09:7b29%eth0' (Got an error reading communication packets) Jul 10 12:06:47 b3 mariadbd[622]: 2023-07-10 12:06:47 4122 [Warning] Aborted connection 4122 to db: 'digikamThumbs' user: 'paul' host: 'fe80::779b:c418:de09:7b29%eth0' (Got an error reading communication packets) EXPECTED RESULT No dodgy looking messages SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.6 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Graphics Platform: Wayland ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Thanks for reporting this bug. Although we correctly closed all databases and removed connections. When the database was in QThreadStorage, even though we destroyed it with a new QSQLDatabase(), it still kept a connection. Maik
