Calibre Metadata does not update

Hi,

I'm using the plugin Fanfiction Downloader and since I upgraded Calibre to 1.0 when I update a story using the plugin the metadata does not update with the story. I posted this bug to the Fanfiction Downloader Plugin area, however the creator of the plugin says it's a problem with Calibre.

Here is the error message:

Quote:
calibre, version 1.1.0
ERROR: Error Updating Metadata: <p>An error has occurred while FFDL was updating calibre's metadata for <a href='http://archiveofourown.org/series/40210'>Falconry Anthology</a>.</p>The ebook has been updated, but the metadata has not.

This is the response I received from JimmXinu. In case it helps.

Since I see that you're keeping your library under dropbox (which is going to be opening files automatically) and calibre starting with 1.0 has been doing a 'windows_check_if_files_in_use' and failing if another process has any of the book's files open, I'm going to blame dropbox vs calibre conflict. (FFDL only updates the epub through the calibre interfaces.)
