So, now my question is, how do I get this all up and running again<br>
with the collection in the new location and digikam on a new computer?<br>
<br>
I see that the SQL dump of digikam4.db has this line:<br>
INSERT INTO "AlbumRoots"<br>
VALUES(8,'photos',0,1,'<u></u>volumeid:?path=%2Fphotodisk%<u></u>2Ftdn-photos%2Fphotos','/');<br>
<br>
<br>
Should I just change this to:<br>
INSERT INTO "AlbumRoots"<br>
VALUES(8,'photos',0,1,'<u></u>volumeid:?path=%2Fnet%2Fphoto%<u></u>2Fphotos','/');<br>
And then restore the digikam db?<br>

Seems good. That kind of tweak works for me, I have similar problems<br>
when replicating (rsync) DK database between two computers, a desktop<br>
and a laptop, and yes, I have to change the path of the collection<br>
base directory.<br>
A simple command line SQL command can do "UPDATE TABLE ... " etc.<br>
<br>
One more thing you should check is the location of your DB file, the<br>
digikam4.db, because it's stored into the DK runtime configuration<br>
file, $HOME/.kde4/share/config/<u></u>digikamrc<br>
If your DB file is stored at the root of your collection, you'll<br>
also have to change the "Database Name=" parameter from, e.g.<br>
/photodisk/photos to /net/photo/photos, so that DK can find your new DB<br>
upon next startup.<br>
<br>
And if your DB file is on your local computer, not on a USB drive or<br>
network drive, of course nothing to change in rc configuration.<br>
<br>
<br>

I'm not sure about the latest version of digiKam, but I think if you want the database on NAS you need to use mysql.<br>
