I recently upgraded to Mac OS Catalina. The version of darktable I had wouldn't allow me to open or access files. I tried making a change to the security preferences to allow dt access to all files. This didn't help.
Next, I installed the latest version of dt (3.2.1). Now, I can't get dt to run at all. I get two dialogs, but they fail and then dt quits. The first dialog says: "We have an updated performance configuration logic..." with 'Yes / No buttons. Whether I click Yes or No, I then get a second dialog which says "the database schema has to be upgraded for .../,config/darktable/library.db do you want to proceed or quit now to do ao backup", with buttons 'close darktable' and 'upgrade database'. Again, it doesn't matter which button I click, darktable closes. I tried double clicking on the executable file, and found the following messages in the terminal window that opened: (1) - before clicking the 'Yes' button at the first dialog: (process:1553): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 18:06:59.009: g_object_set: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (2) after clicking 'Yes': [defaults] found a 64-bit system with 8388608 kb ram and 4 cores (0 atom based) [defaults] setting high quality defaults (3) after clicking 'upgrade database': [init] can't prepare insertion of used tags into data database [init] table data.tags has no column named icon [init] database `library.db' couldn't be upgraded from version 12 to 30. aborting ERROR : cannot open database logout Saving session... ...copying shared history... ...saving history...truncating history files... ...completed. [Process completed] Is there any way a 'simple' GUI user can install dt now and open it on Mac OS 10.15? If there is a way I can rebuild the database (I don't care about any presets or old xmp files), perhaps that would help, but I do not have the first clue how I would go about that. Any help would be appreciated. Graham ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
