Hi!

I'm having a fundamental problem with calibre_directory in COPS and would appreciate some help.

I've installed COPS on WHS 2011 and have tried it under PHP 5.3 and 5.5.

Essentially, with almost all values I've tried for calibre_directory I get the 'metadata.db not found' error.

My latest entry in config_local.php is:
$config['calibre_directory'] = 'E:/ServerFolders/CalibreLibrary/';

The open_basedir parameter in php.ini is not used.

I've tried:
- Every permutation of slash "/" and backslash "\" in the path name;
- Moving the Calibre library folder around different folders, progressively removing spaces from the path name, 'til I ended up with the above;
- Successfully used the path displayed in the COPS Configuration Check page in Windows Explorer;
- Confirmed security access to each of the folders I've used;
- Different browsers (Chrome and IE);
- Cleared the browser caches between tests;
- Checked this thread for the same problem.

The only exception to this Config Check page I get is if I use all backslashes in the path name. In that case IE returns HTTP 500 and Chrome goes to a blank page (Fiddler shows HTTP 500).
