Broke My digikam

[William Curry-2]

Today I accidentally changed the album path to \, and digikam refused to start, citing

"Failed to update old database to new database format"

 

tried to copy the digikam3.db to / and it then told me that there were directories it couldn't find and listed them in the dialog box

with a yes / no option to remove from the db, but either option resulted in a crash.

 

Have tried in vain to find correct config file to change this. no luck.. Where is it??  (SUSE 10.0)

 

removal and reinstall of pkg was also unsuccessful

 

any help appreciated.

Moving the db (though I'm glad you said copy) isn't the right fix :)

Mr Hill -  Thank you, that fixed it, and running 0.9.0 trouble free.
Thank You indeed!
