            Bug ID: 478375
           Summary: Cannot update database with digikam mysql executables.
                    Brew mysql executables work partially.
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: 8.2.0
          Platform: macOS (DMG)
                OS: macOS
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Database-Engine
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: robert at garrigos.cat
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Cannot update database if I use the digikam mysql executables. If I use the
brew mysql executables, I cannot create new tags because of an "unexpected
error".


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open digikam after upgrade
2. digikam mysql executables not working.

OBSERVED RESULT
this is the error shown (in Catalan):
No s'ha pogut actualitzar la base de dades.<p>Executable:
/Applications/digiKam.org/digikam.app/Contents/lib/mariadb/bin/mysql_upgrade</p><p>Arguments:
--socket=/Users/robert/Library/Application
Support/digikam/digikam/db_misc/mysql.socket</p><p>Error del procés: Error
desconegut</p

EXPECTED RESULT


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: 14.1


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I updated digikam to the latest versions. I had set the internal mysql server
in my previous version. Now, it keeps saying that the internal server cannot be
started. I'm using mysql installed by brew, not the one that comes with the
macosx system. If I set the mysql executables to the ones that come with brew
(except mysql_install_db, which is missing in brew), digikam opens with my
previous database, __but cannot add any tag__.

If I use the executables that come with digikam, it complains that it cannot
start the internal server. Besides, any time I open the internal mysql server
configuration window, even if I had already selected the brew executables
before, I have to look for them again, as digikam doesn't remember my previous
setting.
