Ny 'basefolder' I assume that you were using one of the modes where you specify a destination folder? If so which one so I can look further?

I do not think that existing files/folders at that level should have been deleted but there may be a raeson depending on what mode you were using. I will have a word with Dave Pierron about this. It is normal to delete any non-catalog files at the catalog folder (which from your description was not the issue) so that you do not accumulate obsolete files at this level. However maybe a warning should be displayed anyway that the existing contents of the catalog folder are going to be lost if not part of the new catalog.

The level above the catalog folder is assumed to hold all the book files in the same structure as the calibre library. This means that the catalog can actually be generated 'in-situ' with an existing calibre library as all the catalog related files are one level down.

Also the catalog got created but the first time all the covers appeared as red X (missing) in the browser , I created the same catalog again and the second time covers appeared. :-?

There has already been a report of this. I have not peresonally had time to try and reproduce it, but it is definitely a bug.

Other than that I'd like the folder structure to have one top-level "index.html" and then subfolders so you don't have to go through "subfolder_name/index.html" or create a intermediate /index.html to load the "subfolder_name/index.html"

Are you talking about this being at the level above the 'catalog' folder? If so that should be easy enough to add. Thinking about it you can probably simply create a shortcut at that level. If calibre2opds does not delete any files at that level they would then stay in place. If you are thinking about something else, then please explain what it is you are actually looking for. It is not normallyan issue as people seem to have been quite happy to have _catalog/index.html as the last part of the start URL
