[digikam] [Bug 366446] New: Creating new albums fails due to invalid path name.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366446

Bug ID: 366446
Summary: Creating new albums fails due to invalid path name.
Product: digikam
Version: 5.1.0
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: AlbumsView
Assignee: [hidden email]
Reporter: [hidden email]

Git Rev.: e22a2467c80e2b541e5debff76f84d9d70ce057d

Creating a new album fails due to an invalid pathname. For example, I have an
album root at /var/media/photos. There is an existing Album at
/var/media/photos/imports. When I try and create an Album "2016-08-05" as a
child of imports, I get an error message: Failed to create directory
'file:///imports/2016-08-05'.

That is to say, digikam is attempting to create /imports/2016-08-05 when it
should be trying to create /var/media/photos/imports/2016-08-05, and failing
because /imports doesn't exist.

This also affects creating new albums at import time.

Browsing existing Albums seems to work fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select an existing album (or root)
2.Use Album->New
3.Use the "Child of: Selected Album" option, click OK.

Actual Results:
An error message such as Failed to create directory 'file:///New Album'

Expected Results:
A new album to be created.

Using strace confirms that the wrong path is sent to the operating system:
mkdir("/imports/2016-08-05", 0777) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory).

Screenshot after creating album

This issue is not at all reproducible. Creating an album works perfectly fine.
I followed exactly the same you mentioned and album is created successfully.

I had an existing album at home/Pictures/Test Album and I have created a child
of Test Album at home/Pictures/Test Album/2016-08-05 successfully.

Did you use MySQL or SQLite? I recommend to try again with fresh DB.
