Of course, krename is convenient because it is a graphical tool,
but for me, it's clear, it has a fatal bug as described in my last mail.

Linux is made for the konsole mode, typing commands by hand,
as in the good old time of computers :-)

Strange that it works for some and not for others.
Try that to see :
Create a folder, put inside some files like this :
a-01-01-2017.jsp, b-01-02-2017.jsp,  c-01-03-2017.jsp,..
and use krename to change the files name "2017" to "2018".

Best regards,
