Hello,

I am new to Calibre but I could use it without any problem in windows7 and linux mint (xfce) under gui.

However, when I use a 'convert-ebook' command on my linux server which uses debian, it doesn't work.

It gives me "Failed to compile downloaded recipe. Falling back to builtin one." message.

I tried "ebook-convert "The Economist.recipe" /mylocation.

I also tried the same command on my linux mint(xfce) under terminal and it works fine.

I don't know what' the problem here.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me some valuable hints on this.

Thanks.

P.S. Here's the error message that I got.
