<pre wrap="">Hi
Is there any tool to convert digikam3.db to digikam4.db ?
When I launch digikam on my previous album, I get an error dialog box
suggesting me to erase my digikam3.db file. Not a very good idea as I am
quite reluctant to re-tag several thousands of images.
the exact message is :
The schema updating process from version 4 to 5 failed, caused by an
internal error. Please delete the database files ("digikam3.db" and
"digikam4.db" in "/home/photo_video/frederic/photos") if you want to try
to run digiKam with an empty database - it might work then.

Hello,<br>
i recently installed mandriva 2009 which comes with kde4 and digikam
10.xx beta. <br>
Before running this beta version i had made a backup of digikam3.db
and the first time i ran version 10 it creates a digikam4.db file:<br>
<br>
-rw-r--r-- 1 michel michel 3107840 2008-10-14 09:57
digikam3.db.apresInstall2009<br>
-rw-r--r-- 1 michel michel 12561408 2008-10-15 13:48 digikam4.db<br>
<br>
As digikam 10 is not an operational version i decided to install
version 0.9.5: This version has read the initial digikam3db without
problem (this means that this database file had not been corrupted by
digikam 10). So I think that the correct tools to convert from
digikam3.db to digikam4.db (or to create a digikam4.db) is digikam
10.0. Do you have a backup of 3.db to retry the conversion with digikam
10.
