Cool, I remembered the first issue correctly :)<br>
The error you get now I do seldomly get as well, when I manage to
damage the database (outside of digikam). So as you said you are
migrating, I would suggest removing everything related to the new
mysql database and start a new clean migration from sqlite.<br>

<div>Hi Simon,<br>
<br>
</div>
I installed DK from Philip Johnsson's PPA.<br>
<br>
</div>
If I try lo locate libqt5sql5-mysql I get this:<br>
<br>
/usr/share/doc/libqt5sql5-mysql<br>
/var/cache/apt/archives/libqt5sql5-mysql_5.5.1+dfsg-16ubuntu7.2_amd64.deb<br>
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libqt5sql5-mysql:amd64.list<br>
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libqt5sql5-mysql:amd64.md5sums<br>
<br>
</div>
So, I tried apt-get install libqt5sql5-mysql and it did
install something but it continues to crash, in a different
way:<br>
<br>

<br>
Do you have the libqt5sql5-mysql package installed?<br>
Or more generally, where do you install digiKam from?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
