Conversion Problem

[twistingstar]

I had never had any poblem converting files previously, but suddenly, all of my conversion attempts report an error. For example when I try to convert an html file to an epub I get:

calibre, version 0.8.9
ERROR: Conversion Error: <b>Failed</b>: Convert book 1 of 1 (Tower & the Hive)

Calibre is saying it's unable to create a new file - this would indicate that you've run into some filesystem limitation, the disk is full, etc etc. Have you made sure you've got plenty of free space, restarted Calibre/your PC?
