--- Comment #16 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> --- The message actually says that no database server is running. You have to leave digiKam with the error window open, otherwise the internal server will be shut down again. Otherwise start a MySQL server manually with the following command: /sbin/mysqld --defaults-file=/home/yaron/.local/share/digikam/mysql.conf --datadir=/home/yaron/Pictures/.mysql.digikam/db_data --socket=/home/yaron/.local/share/digikam/db_misc/mysql.socket Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
