[Digikam-devel] database format (converting from kimdaba)

[Florian Ehinger]

Hello,

I want to change my current kimdaba database to digikam.
There exists a perl-script kim_2_digikam which should do the job. However I 
have some problems with that. When I want to start digikam with the new file 
I get a message that the old database 
could not be converted to the new database version. After that digikam is 
closing.

When I try to open the converted file with digikam 0.7 the following warning 
is reported and I see only my first category in digikam.

WARNING: [bool AlbumDB::execSql(const QString&, QStringList*, bool)] 
sqlite_compile error: table Albums already exists on query: CREATE TABLE 
Albums (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,  url TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE,  date DATE NOT 
NULL,  caption TEXT,  collection TEXT,  ignoreprops BOOLEAN,  icon TEXT);

Do you have an idea which could be the problem, or can you give me a 
description of the digikam.db database so that I could check my current one 
if it is in the right format?

Thank you
  Florian
