[Digikam-users] Export Pictures and Database to a different PC

[Sebastian Pfohl]

I will try to migrate my SQLite DB to a MySQL DB. Either with XAMPP or on my vServer and put the Collection on a virtual  Windows Share. Yesterday i have tried to install MySQL on my Router, but this fails, because a Router have not enough CPU and Memory to hold all the needed things. Maybe i can use the SMB Share on the Router to hold only the Collection and not additionaly the Database. 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
