[Digikam-users] Gone to digikam 2.3 and all my albums dont show up

[Gilles Caulier]

The problem is the same with and HDD against LVM or RAID media.

In digiKam database we identify a collection by the UUID of partition. like
you have changed the disk of your collection, digiKam cannot found it
again. Nothing is lost. UUID in DB need to be changed. There is no GUI to
fix UUID in digiKam collection setup. DB file need to be patched with a
dedicated editor.
