Title: Deepmeta very problematic at the moment
Post by: dragonblade on October 07, 2023, 22:33
Is anyone else having trouble with Deepmeta at the moment? It can't look up certain keywords because of a server issue so I can't add them to the metadata of the submitted images. I'm trying to upload 17 photos in this current batch. I started the upload process last night and it's still running this morning. Says there are still 17 photos in the queue. Looks like it's making no progress at all.

Still not working. Maybe I'll cancel the upload, exit Deepmeta and try again.

It's a pretty hopeless situation. I cancelled the uploads, closed Deepmeta and then opened it again the following morning. This time, instead of trying to upload 17 photos, I tried uploading just one. Many hours later, it's still saying: "Upload started."

My only guess is: Do you have the latest version 3.23.8 installed?
I had similar problems with an older version.

Ah, my version is 3.23.6. Though it wasn't downloaded all that long ago. I'll try and delete it and download the latest version. Would you know if existing metadata is carried over to the new version?

I have done a lot of updates on deepmeta and all metadata has always been carried to the new version, so with the 3.23.8 in my case - everything worked fine with the metadata.

Thank you for the advice. I downloaded the latest version and it worked perfectly.

I'm glad to hear that - I think it's a shame that the tool can't just tell you "hey there's a new version, please use that".
