Help database format?? (old database format)

Florian Ehinger
Hello,

my problem is that digikam gives me the error that it could not convert my old
database to the new version and exits. (see my old message)

Do you have an idea which could be the problem, or can you give me a
description of the digikam.db database so that I could check my current one
if it is in the right format?

As far as I know it is a sqlite database. So it would be very helpful if there
is some document which describes the tables and fields.

Thank you
  Florian

The database implementation isn't a part implemented by me. My experience is
limited actually. I cannot help you very well, and i have not seen (yet) a
description of the tables in the code.

Was the old database crated by digikam (version?) or any other tool
like kim_2_digikam?

What digikam version do you use?

Is the database located on your local hd?  There once were some
problems with databases on nfs shares or similar.  I don't know, if
they are fixed in the meanwhile.


Cheers,

digikam-0.8.1-23

As I have already mentioned in my other mail I get the following warning when
I use digikam 0.7 and I see only my first category in digikam.

WARNING: [bool AlbumDB::execSql(const QString&, QStringList*, bool)]
sqlite_compile error: table Albums already exists on query: CREATE TABLE
Albums (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,  url TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE,  date DATE NOT
NULL,  caption TEXT,  collection TEXT,  ignoreprops BOOLEAN,  icon TEXT);

Yes all photos and the database is located on my hd.
