[Digikam-devel] Crash Report/Database Corruption/Bug?

[Erland Howden]

Hi,

I got this message the last time I started DigiKam:
> The schema updating process from version 4 to 5 failed, caused by an

I'm reporting it as it suggested but would also appreciate any help - I 
can't access my database now and really need to! Can't figure out how to 
even see my photos in the application any more. Nothing special about 
the way I started it, same as always - can't see what the anomaly was.

Also, I'm not sure how to grab what digiKam prints on the console - 
otherwise I would have included that. Can you provide instructions on 
how to find that?

Cheers,
Erland.
