Odd. It's not clear that this is the same problem reported by eraemaajaervi before, since in his case the photo files still existed but were corrupted, and in your case the files have zero length. The mystery here is this: which process overwrote those files, and why? Or is this corruption happening at the file system layer?

I don't know that we can do anything more to debug this without information. Can you try to reproduce this? It might also be worth running fsck on your drive to make sure that the file system is OK.

Worrying... I just reproduced this (ish).

I imported a number of photos and videos from an SD card (using. USB mass
storage card reader), did import all and thankfully didn't delete the
originals.

I edited (cropped, red eye) a few photos. Added some tags. Even printed a
few. I exited Shotwell rebooted and went back in. The thumbnails started
disappearing as Shotwell rescanned my pictures folder. When I looked in the
file system the files are now all zero length!

This is probably going to be hard to reproduce, but being the second
"corruption" issue in a week I'm more than a little worried.

I can't reproduce this. tried importing a couple of times, even with
deletion, but always a success. I will try it with a bigger load of
pictures
