Hi,

I think I need to change this line in base.php:

Code:
self::$db = new PDO('sqlite:'. $config['calibre_directory'] .'metadata.db');
But I don't know exactly what...

The files of OPDS server are in the following folder: C:\Program Files\Calibre2\Calibre Server

And the metadata.db is in the folder: Z:\ServerFolders\Ebook

You need to change $config['calibre_directory'] (in the config local file) to

Z:\ServerFolders\Ebook

Just as a test try to copy Z:\ServerFolders\Ebook into your webdirectory and :

self::$db = new PDO('sqlite:'. './Ebook/metadata.db');

I really don't know much with Windows's webservers so if anybody can help you it would be best

I tried:

config_local.php:
Code:
$config['calibre_directory'] = './';
base.php:
Code:
self::$db = new PDO('sqlite:'. './Ebook/metadata.db');
And I put the Ebook folder (containing metadat.db) in the calibre folder (C:\Program Files\Calibre2)

Always the same error....

Is Z a networked drive? What account is the server running under? Does it have access to the networked drive?

Z is a pooled drive on my Windows server 2012, and the metadata.db + my ebooks are stocked on the following folder:
Code:
Z:/ServerFolders/Ebook
I installed Calibre on my desktop PC, and I use the metadat.db on my WS2012E. It's works fine, I can add, edit or remove ebook.

But for the OPDS server, it's more difficult...

Last information:

if I put the "Ebook" folder (containing metadat.db) in the calibre directory (C:\Program Files\Calibre2), that's working. But I want to put my ebooks in the "Z:/ServerFoders/Ebook" folder

I don't understand why isn't possible

Maybe you'll have to adapt open_dir in your php configuration ... But again I'm no windows specialist

What I'm trying to learn is HOW exactly does COPS run? Is it running from a Windows Service (ie something like IIS or Apache) or is it running from a program that you launch in your desktop?

If running as a Windows Service it is more than likely that the mapping of a drive to "Z" is NOT in effect.

I (in collaboration with a friend of mine) found out that COPS on Windows (7) and a WAMP server will only work if the calibre directory is in the path of the COPS installation.

2 examples:
(1) (set path in config_local.php)
COPS: C:/wamp/www/cops
Calibre: C:/wamp/www/cops/calibre

or
(2) (set path in config_local.php)
COPS: Z:/ebooks/cops
Calibre: Z:/ebooks/cops/calibre

will work, while

COPS: c:/wamp/www/cops
Calibre: z:/ebooks/calibre

will NOT (under Linux this is not a problem)

To make the second example work under Windows (7) with an Apache server you need to create an alias, otherwise apache cannot find COPS in the z:/ebooks/cops directory.

cannot access OPDS from device

I also seem to be having trouble with the device I'm using [Nexus 7 - 32GB Android 4.2.1 - rooted] with my Synology Diskstation DS-209+. I've followed all the directions from this link https://github.com/seblucas/cops/wiki/Howto---Synology including using the same DIRs noted and copy/pasted the changed lines in the config_local.php file. I've tried 2 readers, namely Moon Reader+ as well as FBReader, and even using an FBReader plugin called "FBReaderJ-plugin-local-opds-scanner" to scan my local network as well as writing in the path manually to 192.168.45/Calibre/. Both apps are unable to locate the OPDS catalog, but in a web browser on my Nexus or my PC, the catalog appears normally. Why shouldn't either reader be unble to find the catalog? Thanks for your help!
