Erwin, I have run into the same problem. Googling for the solution, I found this thread.
Our setup: Calibre is installed on my wife's Windows 7 PC, but data are held on our Linux (Debian) server, and accessible over Samba. This worked flawlessly for years, but yesterday I have upgraded the server, and Samba version has changed from 3.6.6 to 4.1.3. Since then, Calibre produces exactly the same error message as quoted above.
I believe all you people who seem to have this problem, like the person that filed this bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/calibre/+bug/1096737
just were running a newer version of Samba from the very beginning. I would also venture to guess that something has changed in Samba 4.x compared to 3.x to cause this, but I have no idea what that could be - with the exception of Calibre, everything seems to work as usual.
If someone with deeper understanding of network filesystems than me could shed some light on this, I would be extremely grateful.
