Hi,

I have installed calibre in a shared host(linux). I am able to convert a docx file to epub on linux command-line using ebook-convert command. But when I execute the same command from PHP's exec() function and run the php file from browser, I am getting the following MemoryError. The size of the docx file was just 2MB. However, I tried with a small file with just one word "test" in it. Even then, it throws the same error. What could be going wrong?

Array ( [0] => Traceback (most recent call last): [1] => File "site.py", line 58, in main [2] => File "site-packages/calibre/ebooks/conversion/cli.py", line 341, in main [3] => File "site-packages/calibre/ebooks/conversion/cli.py", line 294, in create_option_parser [4] => File "site-packages/calibre/ebooks/conversion/plumber.py", line 10, in [5] => File "site-packages/calibre/customize/ui.py", line 15, in [6] => File "site-packages/calibre/customize/builtins.py", line 654, in [7] => File "site-packages/calibre/devices/apple/driver.py", line 8, in [8] => File "ctypes/__init__.py", line 555, in [9] => File "ctypes/__init__.py", line 279, in _reset_cache [10] => MemoryError )

Thanks,
Velsankar.
