[digikam] [Bug 351679] New: digikam does not find album library

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351679

            Bug ID: 351679
           Summary: digikam does not find album library
           Product: digikam
           Version: 3.5.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: grave
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

digikam had worked before with an album collection.
Now, on start, digikam gives the error message:
'No album library path has been found in the configuration file. Giving up the
schema updating process. Please try with an empty database, or repair your
configuration.'
After proceeding with 'ok', I tried to add a local collection in
Settings->'configure digikam'. The previously used path  (on main system
harddisk) is remembered. When trying to add this collection path ('ok'), the
message is: 'It was not possible to add a collection for the following paths:
<name of path>'.
There is write access to the path. Trying other path names also fails.

update to last 4.12.0 instead 3.5.0 and try again...

3.5.0 is very old now.

updated to 4.12. Problem persists, no change in behaviour. What next? I am on
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, by the way.

In the debug output there was a mention of database type 4 converted to 7. I
removed the old database and digikamrc and started from scratch. Took quite a
while to rebuild the database, but now everything works again.
