Corrupted database: The library database at /Volumes/Dik/Documents/EPacks/[EPUB] Library (Final)/Books appears to be corrupted. Do you want calibre to try and rebuild it automatically? The rebuild may not be completely successful.

Read the last line
you are mounted read only or windows has the folder locked(in use)
Calibre is a SINGLE connection DB at this time.
BTW Bouncing between OS (file system differences) is not a wonderfully great idea.
If you need to run Calibre, consider using Remote desktop connection or VNC to remote control your windows 'host'
