This way all metadata is synced across both machine without a shared database.
#Shared digikam database across comouters install#
On the other machine I started with a fresh install and reread all metadata from the images. Than I had DK write all its metadata to the images. What I do instead: I stripped all metadata from the images with exiftool. I was using the network database so two people can use DK on different machines with the same photo library.
I gave up on this and will be using an other approach:
#Shared digikam database across comouters windows#
Then I changed some things using DK (I dropped a few tags, and assigned a few faces) When I then export the Windows database and import it into the NAS, DK does not recognize it anymore (with the error mentioned) Directly export from Windows and reimport on NAS works fine also. I give up on trying to import the MariaDB database from windows into the MariaDB on my Synology NAS.įor the curious: Export database from NAS and import into Windows works fine. Please help, I hate having to redo the restructuring again on the network database.Īfter several days debugging this problem, I've come to the conclusion that I have stumbled on a bug. I tried importing and exporting using mysql-cli and mysqldump as well as export/import using HeidiSql. I find it strange that export NAS -> import Windows works, but the other way around does not. After many days of reviewing and restructuring my collection I need to restore the database on the NAS, so other can access it as well. Because DK works much faster with a local database, I decided to import the MariaDB database on a local MariaDB installation on my Windows machine. The database was exported from my NAS so it was working on my Synology NAS before! I wanted to do a major restructuring of the tagging of my photos. What can I do to fix or better debug this?
The 'connect database' option in DK setting to check the database connection can connect without problems.īoth databases use the same user and password. If I use HeidiSql to inspect both databases they appear identical (including the DBVersion entry in the Settings table). The imported database looks fine but DK refuses to recognize the database with error 'DBVersion does not exist' I am trying to import a local (windows) MariaDB export into a MariaDB database on my Synology NAS. I am using Digikam 7.2 with a MariaDB database.
