[digiKam-users] Refresh not working

The partition is a 506GB EXT4 partition mounted at 
/home/stuart/Work/Graphics1. The partition has 380GB free and I have 
validated the structure and it shows no errors.

The database is SQLite and was a new database so no hang over from 
previous database.

I have attached the console trace from startup of digikam through to the 
end of a refresh using F5 key  on the Pentax-K-70/2019/02 album
