I think shotwell changed the folder for database in ubuntu 14.04 maybe
(.local/share/shotwell/data/photo.db)
So you might just need to find that location!

Other thing you could do before the crash was to save the tags in the
files. So when you import the photos the tags will be there. Even if using
another program.

Hope that helps
