Screenshot showing digiKam not finding the file, despite it being mounted and the image accessible.

SUMMARY
I have a NAS, and have my photos mounted over SMB to "/mnt/Photos/Camera". When I launched digiKam (with the folder mounted), digiKam shows the album with a red 'X', and all media in that album is unavailable.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Mount SMB share
2. Launch digiKam
3. Network folder doesn't load

OBSERVED RESULT
Folder of photos are not found.

EXPECTED RESULT
Folder to be found, and new photos added to the digiKam database.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Maik Qualmann 2024-11-22 05:24:02 UTC
You have to use the "update" function in the digiKam collection settings for the relevant collection (tool button with a round circle) to update it. The UUID file for the network collection has probably not yet been created or has been deleted. The dialogs can probably all be confirmed without making any changes.

See the link to the online doc : https://docs.digikam.org/en/setup_application/collections_settings.html#setup-root-album-folders
Comment 3 techrules08041 2024-11-22 16:50:24 UTC
For some reason, I do not have those options for the collection. I do not have the append or update options. Only the delete option is available in the collection settings.

It's a problem with the icon-set used to populate button. This is strange because all is included in the AppImage bundle.

Go to setup/misc/apparence and check Widget Style and Icon-Theme settings.

I run the digiKam 8.5.0 AppImage on my computer and icons are there :

The Widget and icon theme selected are :

The Color theme is "White Balance"...

So-called attached network collections actually have no "update" function. Do you use digiKam on different computers? Please take a screenshot of your collection settings.

Hi,

The new AppImage bundle 8.7.0 pre-release for Linux based on Qt 6.8.3 is
online at usual place :

Let's me know if the problem remain.

Best regards
