Peter,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I have my library on Z:\SharedFiles\eBooks
If I create a new metadata.db on c:\mybooks
I would set my CALIBRE_OVERRIDE_DATABASE_PATH to be "c:\mybooks", right?
I'm not clear on how to have the books reside on a folder different than the metadata.db. How do I add them?
I made the change to the environment variable, opened Calibre and was told the library database appears to be corrupted. There were/are not books in it. What did I miss?
And now I can't get into Calibre at all. When I select 'Yes' to the rebuild, this is what I get.
calibre, version 0.8.58
