Based on a perusal of some bug reports I suspect that the cause is a build problem that prevents Amarok from loading plugins rather than a problem with the database plugin. (I see errors for VLC and GStreamer plugins in debug output obtained using the --debug switch.) See https://bugs.gentoo.org/641060#c8 amarok-2.9.0-4.fc30 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 30. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-4aebf8bc56 may also require rebuilt qt4 components from https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-399cb1caab (In reply to Fedora Update System from comment #2) > amarok-2.9.0-4.fc30 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 30. > https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-4aebf8bc56 I tried this build and it works. That is, Amarok starts and runs correctly. Thank you! amarok-2.9.0-4.fc30 has been pushed to the Fedora 30 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. Problem still exist for me. Kubuntu 22.04.3 LTS amarok: 2:2.9.81+git202308090146-0+yasi1~11~ubuntu22.04.1 amd64 The information provided here: https://userbase.kde.org/Amarok/Manual/Organization/Collection/ExternalDatabase is for me not sufficient to get started. The error message is: --- The Amarok database reported the following errors: The configured database plugin could not be loaded.

I guess it was rather amarok who proposed to send a bug report. |
Description of problem: When started Amarok pops up a dialog reporting a problem with the database plugin: The amarok database reported the following errors: The configured database plugin could not be loaded. In most cases you will need to resolve these errors before Amarok will run properly. The problem was encountered the first time Amarok was run after upgrading to f30. There were no problems running Amarok in f29. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): amarok-2.9.0-3.fc30.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Amarok 2. 3. Actual results: Dialog reporting plugin problem. Expected results: Amarok UI. Additional info:
