List index out of range, 0.6.46 downloading metadata, no author.

highwaykind · 04-04-2010, 05:54 AM

Adjust metadata indivudually (Hit E when you have a book selected) - if there is no author specified I get the following error (even if I entered a title and/or an ISBN number).
If I type a random letter in the author box it will try to fetch results without the error. Had this happen on more than one book, don't think this happened with any of the previous Calibre versions. Is this a bug?

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\dialogs\metadata_single.py", line 556, in fetch_metadata
IndexError: list index out of range

I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate.

Thanks , it wasn't just me then

(I never know if I should file a bug report or not for things like this, for all I know I messed something up myself?)

When in doubt first search to see if someone has posted a similar issue. If not, either open a ticket or if you're not sure it is a bug, a forum post.

OK. That's what I did, thanks again
