           Summary: DigiKam fails to read the tag metadata when importing
                    a digikam3.db database
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: paul.chaffey at gmail.com

Hi,

I have my digikam database from an older version which is still in the
digikam3.db format. When I first start DigiKam in Kubuntu 10.04 I am asked the
normal question if I want to upgrade my database. I answer yes, and everything
proceeds as expected. The Album appears correctly, but none of the tags held in
the digikam3.db database are propagated to the new database.

Help -> Database Statistics -> Tags = 0

I have read that having the database file on an NFS share can cause problems. I
have tried moving the digikam3.db file to a local disk, but I have not had any
luck.

I am relatively technical, and would be happy to try anything you suggest to
get this problem sorted (I am not looking forward to re-tagging the full photo
collection ;) ).

I would attached the digikam3.db file to this bug report, but there does not
seem to be an attachment mechanism. I can email it if this helps.

Regards, Paul.
