Missing albums after hard drive change

Mika Aleksandroff
Joop,

so, my built-in hard drive got reformatted. I had my digikam collection/database there. After re-installation Digikam 3.3.0 complains:

The collection

Pictures
 (Folder "/home/username/Pictures" on the volume with the id "793b71e0-3e83-4e11-b06e-b145477bf5b0")

is currently no found on your system.


So I searched a bit and found out I would have to change the UUID in the database to new drive's UUID. So, I did. Didn't help.

I also had a removable collection, which doesn't show up either anymore.

The Pictures-folder is located in /home/username/Pictures on disk with UUID 793b71e0-3e83-4e11-b06e-b145477bf5b0.

Now, what should I do? I have read about missing tags and such so I don't want to do anything "obviously wrong" here. Fortunately most of my photos are on that removable collection but since that doesn't show up, either, I am a bit worried.. That disk hasn't changed at all and everything is where it was.
