"source code not available" in Calibre 0.7.39

Satorisucka · 01-14-2011, 04:42 PM

Every time I try to start up Calibre it crashes before opening and I get a message saying "Python function terminated unexpectedly source code not available (Error Code: 1)." I uninstalled it, reinstalled it, didn't work, uninstalled it again, rebooted, downloaded installer from a different mirror, installed, and still didn't work. I disabled my anti-virus and tried to run, but to no avail. I ran the debug in the command line prompt and got this:

Python function terminated unexpectedly

IOError: source code not available

I recently reformatted and have a clean install of XP SP3, so maybe that is the culprit? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

There are at least three other threads on this forum on this issue - you really should read the forums before you post?

As you would have found in the other threads, just use an older version of Calibre such as 0.7.38 until the issue is fixed, which will no doubt be sometime today as Kovid doesn't let problems like this hang around for long.

I counted five too - but I retyped it as three to give them the benefit of not interpreting different titles as different errors

You should see the number of tickets that were opened

Anyway, bug is now fixed in 0.7.40
