[Digikam-users] Collection not at remote location?

[bnacht at web.de]

Hi,

i try to configure digikam (1.8.0; KDE 4.6.00; openSUSE 11.4; 64-Bit)

In Configure/Colletions i want set a colletion at a LAN-Share (SMB/CIFS) as 
the description says: "... remote file systems (like NFS or Samba) are 
supported.' At 'Add Collection' i can browse to the directory, but after i 
choose it, i get an Error 'The selected directory does not exist or is not 
readable.' There are no problems to access this directory with an file 
browser like dolphin. 

Why denied DigiKam to work wich the remote folder even it says it can use 
remote folders in the description? 

(I found a work-a-round (mount the Network-Share as root) but this is a very 
bad solution because a normal user can't do this (and do not know how) so i 
resume 'It is not possible to use DigiKam 1.8.0 in the KDE enviroment with 
remote collections!')

Will there be a solution for this?

Ask
