Error ReadOnlyError
Error Message:
calibre "calibre, version 1.14.0 Corrupted database: The library database at K:\path... appears to be corrupted.
...
ReadOnlyError: ReadOnlyError: attempt to write a readonly database"

Message appears when library is created on external USB disk with one system and then pluged to other system with WINDOWS 7.

WORKAROUND
Open 'Properties' of the folder with the library using Windows Expoler.
Select Security tab and 'Edit' button. Add 'Everyone' to the Group of users; in Permissions list check "Full control".
