[digiKam-users] Avoid full rescan if a network collection isn't available?

[Andrey Goreev]

For some reason the collection was marked as 'local'. I am not sure how did that happen. I am pretty positive I chose 'network' when was adding it.I changed the type of the collection to 'network' now and am adding it to the database again. Let's see if that helps.However,  the NAS is mounted into my /home/user/Pictures directory.Is it going to be a problem?Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

And the collection was/is registered as a network collection in digiKam? Normally, digiKam would not clean up the database. However, there must be no folder or file in the mount path, otherwise digiKam assumes that the network collection is mounted.MaikAm Montag, 21.
