Webreaper / Damselfly

Damselfly is a server-based Photograph Management app. The goal of Damselfly is to index an extremely large collection of images, and allow easy search and retrieval of those images, using metadata such as the IPTC keyword tags, as well as the folder and file names. Damselfly includes support for object/face detection.

Keyword Search Returns No Results

Have been having issues recently with keyword searches returning zero results despite matching keywords appearing in sidebar when navigating to the image

Not sure if related, but this error from the metadata scanner appears often for different images

Read metadata for /pictures/Family PNG/fastfoto_0282_1st.png (ID: 643) -- 16:05:47.962 | INF | Metadata read for image /pictures/Family PNG/fastfoto_0282_1st.png: Observed multiple instances of PNG chunk 'iCCP', for which multiples are not allowed

I've seen this a couple of times, haven't had a chance to repro it or track it down. It's likely over-zealous caching.

Sounds like there's invalid metadata on those images. Probably needs a fix in the Metadata Extractor library, or perhaps you can switch to a different image format (or perhaps the app which is generating the metadata is creating bad EXIF info in the PNGs it's creating?).
