I have this error since my first Calibre installation and this occurs for some titles only, and it occurs when I try to update the metadata.

The permission on the files is rw for me. Even running as root, calibre give the same error. I renamed the files and copied to other directory, deleted former directory in calibre library, run the maintanance and then added it with new name. Result ? Same problem.

I am running on a SUSE distribution.
AFAIK There are up to 4 files that get written for a Single Format and a folder (or 2)

The DB (which we can rule out as other books work)
The Title (id#) Folder (an Author folder ALSO needs to be created if it does not exist)
cover.jpg
metadata.opf
<the book>.<format/archive>

You may have an invalid (to the File system) character in one of the names that Calibre did not/could not catch and mocify
