https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363505

            Bug ID: 363505
           Summary: crash on start
           Product: digikam
           Version: 4.12.0
          Platform: MS Windows
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

Hi there,

I'm new to this procedure...
I have some trouble with digikam, I'm running it on Win7 x64 Version 4.12
I was using it for some week and started organizing plenty of pictures into the
database.
Some time, after I copied some pictures via Windows Explorer into the pictures
Folder, Digikam is always crashing after startup.
It doesn't crash with a message, instead digikam doesn't respond and uses full
consumption of one CPU.

I tried reinstalling, with a fresh database it is running fine, as soon I use
the existing one, it crashes again.
There are plenty of hours work in that database, so really hope someone may
help me.

best wishes
Simon

This problem have been already reported in the past.

Definitively, digiKam 4.x under Windows is not stable enough. For 5.0.0, we
have rewrite a lots of code and make a new cross-compiling workflow to generate
Windows installer.

A beta 5.0.0 installer is just out, just for testing. I update it step by step
when dysfunctions are discovered and fixed (and there are...)

If you is interested to contribute to test and report dysfunctions, let's me
hear...

Hi Gilles,

thanks for your quick reply.
I installed digiKam 5.0.0 and it's working fine, looking good and not crashing.
But, it doesn't load the 4.1.2 database completely. It's strange, in the Tag
tree there are some Tags from the old database, but not all. If I click on one
of the few tags there is no content behind them.

Do you have any idea how to recreate the old database?

Just rename the digikam4.db file and restart digiKam. It will rescan the
collection and re-create tags.

Know bugs :

i found bug :

- Some signal slot connections are broken in ScanController : add new items in
an album do not refresh contents automatically. F5 has no effect too.
- Switch to Full screen : main menu is lost. Context menu, show main menu
action do not fix the problem. You need to reset the option in digikamrc file
located in windows to "~./Local Settings/Application Data/"
- kipi plugins use KIO (ex GoogleDrive). KLauncher do not find dbus even if all
executable and settings are included. We need to investigate in-deep.
- Try to change colors theme : the rendering in main menu is horrible and
unsuitable...
- Even if all Breeze icons + digiKam icons  are embedded as ressources, some
icons cannot be found, as Properties tab from right sidebar. Perhaps we need to
add Oxygen icon-sets ...
- Icons overlay over iconview items to rotate left/right do not work.

That all for the moment. I'm that other one exists...

guess that was not ment to me^^ ?

hm, it doesn't recreate the tags
also all pictures were rated, which they are not anymore. except for some very
few, they are rated, like 10 of 10000.
