--- Comment #22 from Chad B. <c...@bersche.com> --- So this is still NOT working. Same database server on 8.4 works just skippy. 8.5, 8.6, or 8.7 all fail. I've configured SSL: MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'have_ssl'; +---------------+-------+ | Variable_name | Value | +---------------+-------+ | have_ssl | YES | +---------------+-------+ MariaDB [(none)]> status -------------- mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.39-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1 SSL: Cipher in use is TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 I set up a single database `digikam`. I dropped the old one entirely, and did all the grants per the setup. MariaDB [digikam]> show tables; +--------------------+ | Tables_in_digikam | +--------------------+ | AlbumRoots | ...... +--------------------+ 32 rows in set (0.000 sec) So clearly the initial tables are able to be created. Alas, Event Viewer still shows: Faulting application name: digikam.exe, version: 8.6.0.0, time stamp: 0x67d47119 Faulting module name: libmysql.dll, version: 8.0.40.0, time stamp: 0x679767b8 Exception code: 0x80000003 Fault offset: 0x000000000006e722 Faulting process id: 0x1f7c Faulting application start time: 0x01dbeae03b70658f Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\digiKam\digikam.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\digiKam\libmysql.dll No idea why it keeps doing this, but it would seem that since it's starting with a blank database, and adding tables, the communication to the DB is at least somewhat functional. Literally as I start digikam it'll show up in the task list for about 2-3 second before it silently quits. I'm installing the "debug" version of 8.7 so if there's anything that can be done to help with troubleshooting this "not a bug" that'd be great. It's been crazy hard to set up an external database, as there's not much troubleshooting info for an external database. I need an external DB because I'm going to be using different systems to manage the same photos, so having the common external database is the only realistic option for me, but the days of head scratching have left me exhausted and frustrated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
