view by date stopped working

[santner]

I rarely view my pictures by date, but have recently noticed that last
November digikam stopped grouping my photos by the date they were
taken.  I have verified that the time stamp still exists in all of the
pictures, and I have even re-synced all of my pictures with the
database.  I am currently running 0.9.1, which I switched to several
months ago (I don't think that it was back as far as last November
though).  Anyway, has anyone else noticed this issue?  Any ideas on how
to test and see what is wrong?  Thanks,

Shane

I don't see anything wrong with the behavior of my 0.9.1 install.  What does it
display for you?

Does this feature request sound like what you are seeing?

My pictures start in January 2004 and go through today.  The issue is
that when I choose to view my pictures by the date, that mysteriously
starting in November 2006 through this month no pictures are displayed
in that view.  All of those folders between November 06 and July 07 are
completely empty.  I have checked the pictures taken in this time frame
and they all have the correct date information stored, so I'm not quite
sure why this isn't working.

Are the pictures from Nov 06 - July 07 found in any album while in date view?

As well what is the Album date for one of those empty albums?  while in album
view you can edit the album properties and locate the Album date.  Try resetting
one of these album dates and see what happens.

 From what I can tell, the pictures from Nov 06 - July 07 are not in any
other albums while in date view.  I didn't do an exhaustive search -
more of a quick scan.

In date view, it doesn't seem possible to edit any properties of the
albums in question.  When I right click on the album there isn't a menu
that shows up.  If I go into the albums view, then I can no longer
locate these date specific albums.  Maybe you could give me a little
more guidance on how to reset one of these album dates?  Thanks,

Shane

Hmmmmm...The plot thickens....
Well I would assume that you can visually browse the Albums view and try to
locate one of these folders since Albums view is sorted alphabetically.  

If that doesn't work then something else I would suspect is wrong.  Try
searching for that folder name.  I *think* that your pictures folder is located
in your Home folder?  Are there weird permissions set on that folder?

All permissions are set to 755 myusername.myusername.  I have attached a

picture that is in the group that is not being dated correctly.  Maybe
you can look at the metadata and see something that I am missing?  Also,
I upgraded to 0.9.2 and also tried 0.8 and neither are viewing these
pictures by their dates correctly.  Thanks,

Shane

All permissions are set to 755 myusername.myusername.  I have attached a

picture (I had to crop it to a few pixels to get it under 40k so it
would be posted) that is in the group that is not being dated
correctly.  Maybe you can look at the metadata and see something that I
am missing?  Also, I upgraded to 0.9.2 and also tried 0.8.2 and neither
are viewing these pictures by their dates correctly.  Thanks,

Shane

I tried twice now to send a reply with a photo attached so that someone
could view the metadata stored inside, however both times it appears
that the message was not posted.  I have checked the permissions and
they are all set to myusername.myusername and 755.

"Well I would assume that you can visually browse the Albums view and

I am not quite sure which folder you want me to find.  All of the date
folders can only be viewed while in the view by date mode.

I have tried this in versions 0.8.2, 0.9.1 and 0.9.2 and the problem is
consistent throughout.
