Summary: Misleading error message with path change in digikamrc
file.
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian stable
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
ReportedBy: sgbotsford gmail com
Version: 0.8.2 built with KDE 3.5.5 (using KDE 4.0.2)
Installed from: Debian stable Packages
OS: Linux
Not exactly a crash: Just won't start...
This may be related to #144253, the message is the same.
If the path in the digikamrc points to an empty directory, you get the "can't change old database to new database format"
message, and the application quits.
Changing the path by hand to point to a real directory solves the issue.
****
History: The first time I tried digikam I had an ntfs file system mounted at /i (The same drive as it appears
on booting winsooze.) In my search for the optimum photo app I uninstalled digikam. This morning I reinstalled
it and started getting this message.
At this point I don't know if it was due to the directory being empty or something moving from /i to /photos when
I reformated the volume.
Messages from the startup window were of the form:
digikam: WARNING: [bool AlbumDB::execSql(const QString&, QStringList*, bool)] sq lite_compile error: unable to open database file on query: SELECT name FROM sqli te_master WHERE type='table' ORDER BY name;

Desired behaviour:
"Digikam cannot find the database that should be at /i/{whatever}
Have you moved your photo collection?"
