--- Comment #19 from gessel <ges...@blackrosetech.com> --- One kind of obvious thing I point out only timidly as likely to be silly to mention, but the default install of either MySQL or MariaDB does create an anonymous user. Running # sudo mysql_secure_installation advises removing this anonymous user, which I did, and which created (for me) the issues in this ticket. (I documented my install steps at https://www.blackrosetech.com/gessel/2021/03/26/compile-and-install-digikam-on-ubuntu-20-04-focal) Restoring that anonymous user resolves the issues. That is Digikam works as expected against a default "unsecured" MariaDB installation but for me at least, had face tag issues with a "secured" installation with the default anonymous user deleted, which were resolved by restoring an anonymous user. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
