Hi,
could you add a bug @
https://bugs.kde.org ?
it could have the following properties:
Product: digikam
Component: Database
Application Version: [this one is important, DigiKam 2.0.0 rc is out]
Title: DigiKam fail to start (schema updating process from version 4 to
5 failed)
Also try to start DigiKam from a shell (console) and copy&paste the
output shown.
Assuming you're using sqlite database (if not specify it in the bug report)
If the database is corrupt also from a shell it may be useful open the
sqlite database and do an integrity check
sqlite3 /home/joint/Pictures/digikam4.db
SQLite version 3.7.7.1 2011-06-28 17:39:05
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> pragma integrity_check;
ok
(Disclaimer I'm not an expert on on the sqlite database but you'll not
find many on saturday night)
thank you for the interest
- Francesco
