You cannot pass in the location of the Calibre library via the Command line - it now gets picked up from the saved calibre2opds configurationnset up from the GUI. Note also that if you use the javaw command you will not see error messages at the command prompt level - they are only shown if you simply use java.

The CALIBRE2OPDS_CONFIG environment variable points to a folder where you want calibre2opds to put it's config information (f it is missing then your XP home area is used). It can be any folder to which you have read/write access. The folder you mention in the documentation is one that is suggested for a 'mobile' installation. If you look a bit further up it gives a suggested folder layout for such a setup.

I was speaking to Dave Pierron today and he is puzzled as to how it can fail in quite the way your earlier java exception messages suggest. If necessary we will get a version with extra debug in it for you to use. As I mentioned calibre2opds worked fine for me when I ran a test on XP so it is not an inherent problem with XP. Just a check - you are using a 32-bit of XP rather than a 64-bit version.
