Running on a Windows 10 system. Digikam-6.4.0
So in the Configure window I selected Collections and then used Add
Collection.
I then selected the required library and all appears to be good.
The library appears with a library icon with a plus on it, and the
correct full library name appeared on the right. I then clicked OK. A
pop-up window appeared almost straight away
"It was not possible to add a collection for the following path"
and then the path I had just requested.
The library I was attempting to add was
"C:\Users\Ian McCarthy\Pictures"
does the space in the name matter? Other names with spaces in appear to
work.
Afterwards if I go back to add collections the local name has appeared
and its file name is "F:\Users\Ian McCarthy\Pictures"
I discovered that the library was read only so I altered that but this
made no difference.
Any idea's what I'm doing wrong?
