[digiKam-users] --> DK Loosing Database (part of it)

[Alex Antão]

Yes, it is on local, I would never try to store the database on a remote location. 

Only my library, the photos themselves, is on the NAS drive.

Hi, 
 
If you use a SQLite database file _must_ be located on the local hard 
drive, not on the NAS. You need to use Mysql or Mariadb server 
instead, to host a remote database. 
 
This is a sqlite technical restriction, not digiKam. It's well 
explained in the database setup configuration panel.

It is configured as a network device, so DK should be aware that the Library can sometime be unavailable. My library is huge and it will take a long long time to scan all again... this is very frustrating.
