I have a load of .odt files I wrote that I would like to convert to .epub to read on my phone. They convert fine using the default settings but I get a large two page cover of the calibre logo and it's version number which I don't want. If I tick the 'no default cover' option then the conversion fails with the following error:
ERROR: Conversion Error: <b>Failed</b>: Convert book 1 of 1 (Books)
Convert book 1 of 1 (Books)
