ebook-convert pdf to mobi command

Hi,

I'm trying to convert a pdf file to mobi (I know, hard to do), using the command line interface.

I moved the input file to the same folder as ebook-convert (C:\Program Files\Calibre2), and also opened a CMD window to there. When I try the syntax:
Code:
ebook-convert sample.pdf sample.mobi
However it returns the error Cannot read from... What am I doing wrong here?

[EDIT]Nvm, it must have been the file that wouldn't convert. Tried it with a different file and it seems to be going ok.
